    Anyone seen the new Louis Theroux episode on the iPlayer, the American far-right one? Bonkers, absolutely bonkers. Sinister too.

    Trigger Point. Another cracking drama from the Jed Mercurio stable.

    Yes. I wasn't sure after the first episode but the plot has developed nicely.

    Out of interest, did you watch Vigil and, if so, did you rate it?

    Predicted very early on. Was ok as tv dramas go but not sure it was any good? Very meh for me. Nothing happened then all happens in last 5 mins to get you to watch the next one

    I suppose it depends what you want. It's a drama series, not a shoot 'em up.
    I don't think that 'nothing happened'. Yes, each episode built to a cliffhanger climax, as do many series, but I felt there was plenty going on in the rest of it.

    Just watched the second series of Traces. Crime drama set in Dundee.
    I really enjoyed it but, judging by reactions above to Vigil and Trigger Point, some of you might think it was too tame.

    There is some excellent character acting in the Danish drama " When the dust settles" from Walter Presents on All 4.
