I hope that Anne is better than the last version, and the one before it, there has never been a good depiction of this saga - my dear Mother's favourite books.
Mum was a red headed kind of orphan - brought up by her aunty in a country town and boarding schools and a geek like Anne.
Mum made certain every one of her daughter read the series, even the ones that could barely read (she read it to them).
Woooooo what a week for finales, Nightmanager concludes Wednesday, then Broadchurch on Friday, both have been fantastic viewing.
And - if you didn't catch this last night......DO NOT MISS THIS, REVEALING, ASTONISHING....really fascinating FACTS and a totally different perspective...China does not want war, they want balance.
America has an Empire, Australia are part of a creepy sneaky empire
The Coming War On China
Coming straight after the election of US President Donald Trump, this film is one of John Pilger's most timely and urgent investigations. As Trump threatens China with a trade war and worse, this documentary is both a warning and an inspiring story of people's resistance. Through key interviews - from Pentagon war planners in what is now Donald Trump's Washington, to members of China's new political class who rarely feature in Western reports - Pilger's film challenges the notion of the world's newest, biggest trading nation as an enemy.

My mistake, NIGHTMANAGER has 8 not 6 episodes, so 2 more to go to the finale.
Did anyone watch this last night????It is weird, and rather wonderful. Lot's of very odd dreams, Jude Law & Diane Keaton acting awesome........this is about power and politics, and I found it fascinating.
Can binge watch online.
THE YOUNG POPE
The Young Lenny Belardo is Pius XXIII, the youngest Pope in history but also the first American pontiff. His radical ideas could change the Roman Catholic Church.

HAVE A NECTARINE, GONK
Broadchurch finale was good, and left open to have a return if they want, have heard they don't want to do more - actors I think.
Both the leads are very busy, and very loved
I liked it, though the reveal of who did it was frustrating because we couldn't work it out ourselves (not saying anymore in case others haven't seen it yet)
Good show though with a great cast.

Never again
No. What happened?

I have been watching The Biggest Loser: Transformed on TenPlay when it moved to Daytime. The final episode is on Monday morning. Today's episode was all of the contestants showing their new bodies to friends and family. They weren't all that big to begin with but the transformations are incredible. Some of them look really fit and healthy compared to before. It's remarkable and just to add Jake is a total DILF! Hubba Hubba! 
Amazing transitions than usual from previous finales of TBL!

Do you guys get Line of Duty? Easily the best UK series around at the moment and just finished it's fourth series tonight.
If you've not seen it but can get it on demand (ideally from the beginning, but you can pick it up from series 4) I highly recommend it. I usually can't stand police dramas but this is one of the best things on TV ever. I recommend though you just find it and watch it - start googling it and you're in for a spoiler fest, and it's the unexpected which is what makes the series so good.
