Thanks, MT62
I enjoy the forensics, too.

This threads turning into a really helpful one.

My husband thinks I am morbid but I really enjoy how they solve the puzzle.
All these rapists & murderers didn’t bank on good old DNA.

Just finished watching 'Legends' on Netflix - if you like Cormoran Strike - he is fabulous in this.

The Four Seasons second season has just started on Netflix - great fun.

Am enjoying Mindhunter, set in the 1970s in USA. FBI agents exploring the psychology behind acts of murder. I also enjoyed Department Q, a Scottish series - though it may not appeal to all because there was a lot of swearing.

I loved both of these. I have watched MindHunter twice.

The Wonder, is an Irish film with Florence Pugh and Tom Burke.
Also a Ken Loach film The Old Oak.
Both well worth watching and a change fron detectives etc .

I have been watching the four seasons , enjoyable and watched it all in two nights. Think it stops at the end of season 2.

Trust Me: The False Prophet, a disturbing documentary about a polygamous self-proclaimed prophet in the American Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It’s definitely not light viewing, but interesting.

Small things Like These, disturbing, moving story about the abuse of young, single catholic mothers by the church.
