Film and TV

I gave up  my TV license in 2001 and I haven't watched many films for years.

We (ie since then) have a household TV but I've never figured out even how to turn it on.

However, because I'm running out of books to read and my eyesight is failing, I've now got my own TV.

I have no idea what to watch.

The sorts of films I used to watch weren't usually mainstream - eg. Paris, Texas; Betty Blue; The Double Life of Veronique; the Three Colours Trilogy.

I need to branch out.

The novels I like most and read most of are detective, thrillers, murder mysteries.

However, I'm open to all sorts of suggestions.

So, background over, do you have any recommendations for films or TV series and, just generally, what do you like watching?

  • Another series I love that you might like is Quantum Leap. Not detective series, though he is a detective in some episodes but it is a really good series. It's about time travel and focuses on some celebrities lives in some episodes, including Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe.

    My dad first introduced it to me and I've been a fan of it ever since.

    Highly recommended!Blush
