Welcome to new BBC One series The Nest starring two of my favourites, Sophie Rundle of my adored Gentleman Jack and Martin Compston from Line of Duty and late of Traces. From what I’ve read, it’s a thriller about surrogacy, which sounds interesting, right?? Join me in starting The Nest S1:E1.1 after the break!
I’ve been trying to hold onto this last episode of Happy Valley from the first series for as long as possible but I’m late with my newsletter and it’s time to make amends. I also had a super slow month (was busy with ridiculous things) and one cannot sustain oneself with reality TV show recaps.

It was the same for another favourite show recently, except the other way around, so I’m interested in the reaction in the colonies! Let’s roll into E04 since we’re here.
