Have also been enjoying Vigil.

Stanley Tucci plays the husband of Katherine (James as she was then), an exact contemporary of mine at the RCM. It is rather affecting.Worth on Netflix
Russell,Time.
Same thing.
I've watched The Virtues, Help and Time all within a week. Brilliant.
Ray,Russell,
I thought Time was brilliant and Sean Bean opposite Stephen Graham was the rare sort of treat that comes along only once in a very long while.
And it works live too. Looks great, much less banding and I could actually see parts that were a blurry mess on broadcast Freeview HD. Sadly doesn’t help with some of the more absurd plot decisionsI just discovered yesterday that you can watch Vigil on the iPlayer in 4K UHD.
I've only watched 2 episodes so far, but I'm not sure it made much of a difference in the scenes inside the submarine as the lighting was fairly low anyway. One thing I did notice in Suranne Jones' character's flashbacks to the car accident was that there were no tyre tracks in the stony beach where their car went into the loch and it seemed a rather long distance between the road and the water. Which plot decisions did you find absurd (bearing in mind I have only watched 2 episodes and don't really want any spoilers )?And it works live too.

Just worked my way through season 1 of Rake and really liked it. Great shoutQuite enjoying Rake on Netflix, set in Sydney. If I describe it as a bit like Rumpole, if Rumpole was a divorced, semi-alcoholic, drug taking, sex obsessed Australian barrister you will have a rough idea of the program.
Is that not standard for the genre? people don't criticise Thunderbirds or the James Bond series for being ludicrous.Re Vigil, it's more a matter of what isn't absurd. It's entirely ludicrous from start to the strangely anti-climactic finish.
We enjoyed Rake until what I hope was the final series where he goes into politics, when it jumps the shark big time and is just childish. Until then, lots to enjoy.Just worked my way through season 1 of Rake and really liked it. Great shout
