Beatie Edney is one of the main cast members in Poldark. I'd never have known until i saw her name in the credits.

I haven't seen any incarnation of Poldark, so my only point of reference for Edney is In the Name of the Father. She is beautiful in The Dark Angel, so it's no wonder you didn't recognise her in Poldark if she looks as old and haggard as in the photo!

LEGENDS OF TOMORROW S3 EP10 'Daddy Darhkest'

The Legends new episodes start. A good start it is in a quite creepy episode.
Some of the demonic possession scenes would not look out of place in a horror movie. John Constantine is on hand to help.

BLACK LIGHTNING S1 EP5 "And Then the Devil Brought the Plague: The Book of Green Light"

Jefferson's daughter Anissa researches enhanced power teenagers that went missing and goes out at night in a new costume.
This is great, another step in the direction of becoming super hero 'THUNDER'.

Just watched the first episode of Stranger Things last night, which everyone seems to have been going on about the last couple of years. And... really enjoyed it, actually. Intriguing story so far, good characters/actors, nice 80s vibe... I am suitably hooked (so far, at least).

It's on my (very long) watchlist and I hope to watch both seasons soon, possibly this month.

Been rewatching this recently because Sam never seen it.
Just last episode to watch before starting on season 2

been watching Hell on wheels its a western about the construction of the First Transcontinental Railroad anyone who liked shows like deadwood will like this. Most of the cast are excellent and one of the stand outs is the highly underrated Colm Meaney best knowing for playing Chief O'Brien in deep space nine and The Commitments and the brilliant the van.

I watched the final four episodes of season four of Arrow last night.

I'm not just saying this but taken as a 160 minute piece this was far superior to all the recent DC films and most of Marvel's offerings as well.

Character driven, action packed, exciting and beautifully acted too. Highly recommended.

Interestingly Neal McDonough who plays Damien Dharke, one of the great DC villains also is a member of SHIELD in Marvel's universe.

Green Arrow, John Constantine and Black Canary in the fifth episode Haunted.

I've been watching it three years now (saw the first two series in year one). Although i want to watch it i'll probably go and get series 5 to watch next January as i've so much to watch including season two of Supergirl and also the second series of The Flash where i'm up to episode 11.

I really liked Justin Hartley as Green Arrow in Smallville and wasn't convinced by Stephen Amell at first but he soon won me over.

I've recently watched the first series and first episode of the second series of DAMNED, the Channel 4 'comedy' series. I use the word 'comedy' advisedly because it is a series with some funny moments but it appears to portray the world of social work in such a vérité manner that there are frequent downbeat scenes.

In that respect it is very reminiscent of the other shows starring Jo Brand: GETTING ON and GOING FORWARD, about nursing and community care work, respectively, using observational humour to show the issues facing people doing crucial work in today's society, often for low pay and with insufficient resources.

If you haven't seen any of them, they are all highly recommended.

Aside from that, I'm halfway through the second series of COLUMBO and I'm really enjoying working my way through the large box set which I bought some time ago. The plotting is very clever and the guest stars, from Ida Lupino to Leslie Nielsen, John Cassavetes to Ray Milland (twice so far) and Honor Blackman make it even more interesting to watch.
