I am on a marathon here.

Finished Crown, then finished Better Call Saul and then finished End Of the f****** world. Now started 13 reasons why. Next will be Supernatural or Riverdale. I have been meaning to watch supernatural since a long time but the number of episodes I need to watch to catch up with the current season scares me.

What did you think of the crown? (I assume that’s what you watched)

Do you wish same actors were in seasons 3&4?

The Crown is one of the best shows I have seen. The characters, the settings, and the direction, it would have cost them a fortune to produce this. Although I don't like many of the main characters apart from Queen and Prince of Edinburgh (I love to pronounce Edinburgh :p), but I love the actors who have played those roles. I loved everyone's acting especially Philip and Margaret( I don't know the names of actors ). I feel the casting is perfect and I was really disappointed when I found out the actors change every 2 seasons.

My favourite characters were Tommy and Philip ( I am talking about those actors ). The character who played Tommy Lascelles was amazing ! Even John Lithgow who played Churchill acted very nicely. I don't know how much of facts and how much of fiction is there in the story, but I felt that the Queen went through so much of hardship/stress over the years.

Oh. And the soundtrack is incredible. I really wish the same characters played the role but anyway, looking forward to next season. My favourite episodes are the one where King George dies and the other one with the flashback of Philip when he was young.

What about you ? Did you like the show ?

Agree pretty much with all of that - Philip and the Queen were my favourite characters but they were all excellent. I understand that all episodes were based on elements of truth: that being the case I didn't realise Philip played away! I loved all episodes involving Margaret too but maybe that's because I liked looking at the actress too much :D

you should give it a go, the new season has only just started and is available on catch up. You will get to know Pete and Manu (who every female contestant loves :p) the judges and if you like contestants of different abilities, bitchiness and humour you might just like it!

I think it was the couples version :D.
Ready Steady Cook is a good one too, i love Ainsley, he's so adorable.
Barefoot Contessa, and Keith Floyd, love his way of cooking as it seems so quick yet looks delicious.

If i had to pick a favourite it would be Nigella. Followed closely by Barefoot Contessa. I've never watched Gordan Ramsey, he seems to always be shouting when i channel surf!

To be fair most males would say Nigella was their favourite :p

Ramsey is very entertaining but does come with some colourful language ..!
