Posted on 25/02/2019 09:38 byWe do our serious serial watching in the caravan using DVD's. In recent years we have watched mammoth series like The Sopranos, ,Mad men and Breaking Bad and there has been so much underlying these stories we have watched them twice. Now we are working our way through Game of Thrones about 4 episodes a week and will have years left to finish the series.
Also Pride and Prejudice
about one a year

I enjoy Pointless as I see it as a bit of a challenge. Initially it took me a while to work out what it was all about!!! I wouldn't worry about missing a few episodes as they are regularly repeated - I sometimes wonder how I get the pointless answers
I will admit to being something of a political junky and Newsnight is a must. Quite like Peston but not everyone will appreciate his rather erratic presentation.
You should have stuck with Endeavour, its building quite nicely. Box the new Chief Inspector is obviously a bent cop. Thursday is being drawn into his murky world which seems very much against his character. Strange and Bright know something is up with Box but Morse, up until now is a bit in the dark. Final episode of this series so it could be interesting as there may be more information on the murder of George Fancy.

We record anything we want to watch - very, very, rarely watching "live".
Currently we've episodes of Endeavour and Grantchester to watch. But I think the best at the moment is Shetland. Being early risers we go to bed about 9.30, so anything late at night has to be recorded.
We also watch Pointless - but as it's on during milking we record and watch over supper. I've learnt a lot about Chemical Elements and Countries. I'm not so hot on films, but I was pleased with myself when I got a Pointless answer for Peter Capaldi films.
I record a lot of old films - some from the Talking Pictures channel, which we will get to watch one day!
