If you haven't watched the BBC series Sherlock, do yourself a favour.

It's on Stan atm
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Currently watching season 1 of The Missing.

It's a British (French) crime drama about a fathers search to find out what happened to his son who was kidnapped 8 years earlier.

It's narrative switches between the present day and the time his son went missing.

This is excellent viewing and I highly recommend it.

I enjoyed the Missing as well, except for the ending (say no more).
How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say?

Unfortunately I also confirm the final episode was a disappointing conclusion.

Not sure what the writers were thinking with that.

I'm starting to watch season 2 today.

We've been watching a bit of Black Mirror lately. Really great show exploring some of the potential dystopian outcomes that could be brought about by technology.

Nah not my thing.

Besides looking at that first picture it would seem more up your alley.

Yuk.

With TP as her personal trainer, she'd be tidy again in no time.

I'm sure she doesn't enjoy being morbidly obese
