Still Game: Hootenanny.

Jack, Victor, Winston and tam decide to go to Joe's Highland retreat, with Victor and Jack making their own way and upsetting the locals, Tam and Winston struggle to get there. Meena is away to India to visit her sister leaving Navid but finds jealousy and draws him closer to Isa.

Another New year special that comes with more laughs, Navid eating his own food living it hardcore and making his own breakfast, this one I was never that keen on but has grown on me over time with watching it a few times, Tam and Winston do mix in the laughs with Jack and Victor getting banned from the only pub a few times.

Part 4: Mr Skipling's day of reckoning.
As the 28th looms closer, Anthony braces himself for that very date and the real culprit reveals themself.

Sir Ian McKellen reveals himself as a fine dam good actor, this was thrilling, suspenseful and has some good tense moments, this is basically playing mind games and how to drive a sane man mad. From start to finish this was very fast paced but never lost track of the story and maintained the plot, this is another decent episodes of the show.

Armchair Thriller.

Fear of God.

Part 1: A question of Gravity.
When a young girl jumps off a roof of a apartment block, neighbour and journalist Paul Marriott investigates her death and discovers she was part of a religious cult after finding her diary.

Part 2: The Noise.
After attending the funeral of the young girl, Paul meets her sister Nicola, and the leader of the cult Regiment of God also wants her diary. Paul feeling he is being followed and finds his flat bugged.

Part 3: The Music Room.
Paul is knocked out by a strange noise but manages to record it, he feels there is a connection between the noise and the cult aswell and moves deeper into the mystery when he along with Nicola and friend go to the grounds of the cult.

Part 4: Bang.
The cult are desperate to get the diary and her ashes, Nicola agrees to deliver them, with the police closing in, the leader decides to pack up but will they make it out?

This wasn't as tense or suspensful as the previous episodes but more mystery, crime, drama but it did have its good points, one being the plot using a American Cult in Britain and development of using sound waves as a weapon that's meant to be engineered for the military and some good acting thrown in from the cast, you can tell this was made for television with their use of special effects that still seem better today than what we get now.

I watched the first episode last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'll continue watching it this evening and, if I don't finish it tonight, I will tomorrow.

Armchair Thriller.

The Circe Complex.

Part 1:
Tom Foreman robs a jewellery shop and kills a policeman in the process and hides the loot, he hasn't disclosed where he has hidden it and refuses to tell his wife or psychiatrist Ollie Milton.

Part 2:
Tom's wife decides he has to be sprung out of jail with the aid of a ex convict Cat Devlin, he has doubts about his involvement and he is given a price that he can't decline.

Part 3:
After a heist, Tom is with Ollie at the hideout, determined to get Tom to speak and say where the loot is and turns things up to make him talk which backfires, Cat arrives and sensing something is wrong with Tom.

Part 4:
Cat now set to take a fall insists he is innocent Detective Bannister isn't sure to trust a convict, Cat tells Bannister about his relationship with Mrs Foreman.

Part 5:
Bannister still has his doubts about Tom's death the more he speaks to Mrs Foreman the more they become closer. Ollie is trying to compile some facts in clues where the loot is.

Part6:
Ollie has managed to find the location of the loot, while Bannister decides to resign from the police force and set up home with Mrs Foreman, will it be a happy ending for all?

I found this one a bit hard to get through until the second/ third episode as it seemed to be a tale of team betrayal then strays to Femme Fatale which was a bit expected as Mrs Foreman should have a mattress tied to her back. The last episode was interesting as it shows what women would do to get their hands on a lot of money and jewellery.

I'm marathonning Pretty Little Liars at present. Seen it before but it's about 4 years since so it feels pretty fresh. Some of the twists and turns are thoroughly outrageous, but I do like how dark it's prepared to go, and how thoroughly deranged the second "A" is, even going so far as to frame one of the girls' mums for murder. Insane.
