Enjoying the new series of Top Boy on Netflix
I have greatest respect for Rugby Union, they started it mid-way through the 19th century. Thankfully we grabbed it and turned it into a spectacle on 29th August 1895

Amazon Prime has recently introduced a whole heap of older series that were good at the time such as Monk, House, Ally McBeal, Bones, Smallville, Mentalist, Elementary, Leverage and on and on with some quite good new stuff like The Boys (a different slant on Sci-Fi) which was excellent IMO.

Now TV has some great stuff and a good balance of programmes too.

Netflix seems to me and I'm not trying to be sexist are going full-on for the male market, where in reality women usually rule the remote control.



Tell me how Now TV works.

I had it before, years ago, but it seemed I paid a set fee the had to pay extra to watch stuff so I dropped it.

Does it work the same as Netflix?

You just pay a fee and have access to Sky’s drama output?

I mostly watch subtitled foreign drama and Sky Arts was good for that but they now put that type of show on Sky Atlantic, which I as a Virgin subscriber cannot access.

I particularly want to watch Babylon Berlin and 1993.

It's a way of watching tv without a contract. Owned by Sky and all you need to is create an account and choose from their selection pf passes, sports films etc. Can be viewed on most devices.

We just took the TV programme package, so anything that isn't a Film or Sport you get including the ones you mention, you also get access to the live TV channels as well.

Can't wait for series 4. Brilliant drama. The fire death scene was pretty grim... Great soundtrack by Brian Eno as well.
