SEPTEMBER!!!!

 

Can't wait for this. Gonna have to watch all previous series again beforehand.

 

Top Boy is right up there as one of the best U.K. series ever IMO

Totally agree, made the mistake first time around of starting with the Netflix series 1 when instead I needed to start with Top Boy Summerhouse. 

The new series is for all intense and purposes series 5, not 3, the first 2 series had more or less the same cast and were just as good, giving the viewer to see how Deshane ane Sulley started their life as drug dealers.

So anyone who’s not watched Top Boy yet, start with Top Boy Summerhouse and not Top Boy season 1. 
 

I hope this makes sense 😂

I agree with @Izzy I can’t think of many UK tv series’ better than Top Boy. Just great television and it’ll be a shame when it’s over 

Sounds good.

 

I'll give this a go after Antiques Roadshow. lol

Thoughts on the latest series of Ted Lasso so far? I think it’s absolutely fantastic and one of the most enjoyable things to watch on TV at the moment. The character development has been excellent and it’s very heartwarming!

I've never seen Ted Lasso but sounds like I need to.

 

What channel is it on?

Loving it as always. Some of the football is a bit silly but we don't really watch it for that do we?

Frankie Boyle farewell to the monarchy on channel 4 hilarious stuff!

A latter day The Clash of comedians; as in he’s the only one (currently) who matters. Comedy, like art, should be a vehicle for comment on society and life - it has to hold a mirror up or it serves no purpose other than being pointless ephemera. Boyle is a one-line gag dagger into the hypocritical and banal heart of Britishness.

Watching The Night Agent on netflix, it's ok and I'm enjoying it but it's getting more and more ridiculous by the episode lol

 

On episode 9 right now.

I'd watch a few taster episodes to see if it's your thing or not, then start from the beginning. I'd personally recommend:

 

Season 7 Episode 1 - Frank's Pretty Woman

Season 6 Episode 3 - The Gang Buys A Boat

Season 9 Episode 3 - The Gang Tries Desperately To Win An Award

Season 5 Episode 12 - The Gang Reignites The Rivalry

Season 7 Episode 9 - The Gang Gets Trapped

 

Everyone will have their favourites but the above five are a good way to introduce you to the characters, their flaws, their awful behaviour, their ridiculous schemes and the utterly hilarious nature of the show.

Finally got started on Snowfall - knocked out season 1 in 2 days, and am halfway season 2

 

No characters with redeeming qualities, but still very entertaining 

Hell of a series, finished it at the weekend.
