- SisterMemberI can't remember now if I watched 56 Up, or not. Or of I'm confused with missing the last one of the Australian longitudinal study that they have been filming. I loved the series that Gillian Armstrong did - Not Fourteen Again - too. I don't know if that's available anywhere but it struck a chord because the girls were only a few months older than me and from the same area. If she'd chosen a different youth group, who knows...?
- RomlaMemberThe Up series by Michael Apted which followed the same group of people every 7 years from age 7 - they are now filming 63up.A remarkable documentary series chronicling my lifetime.Think someis on YouTube.
- SisterMemberI couldn't get into Marcella - I didn't like one single person in that show! But Killing Eve was fantastic. Sandra Oh has always been a favourite. I'm watching Vera at the moment on DVD but as soon as that's finished, I'm going to watch Shirley Valentine as I had forgotten about it until now and it's been so long.

- RomlaMemberThink Shirley Valentine should be essential viewing for women who’ve been married a while.
- kitkatbMember@Romla you just reminded me I've got that movie saved. Will watch it tomorrow, again. :)
- RomlaMemberOh and The West Wing
- RomlaMemberShirley Valentine
- kitkatbMemberAm watching Agatha Christie at the moment. Also with @Zoffiel love the Lord of the Rings trilogy and loved Rabbit Proof Fence.
- ZoffielMemberKilling Eve spurred me to do the iView thing. I watched the whole lot in a binge day. Sandra Oh was robbed at whatever the latest award thingie was.
