My Mum, Your Dad (2023– )

So much better than I thought it was going to be

[10/10 · 23 September 2023]

We really enjoyed watching this, and it grew on us more and more with each episode. We thought we would hate it but it got better and better, watching all the participants become more well known to us. The kids were great, and all really likeable.

When we first started meeting the parents and hearing their stories it was hard to see where this might go but they soon got to know the others and get matched off by their choices. The kids were all watching from another house from the start and became the relationship experts, doing a great job helping the matches.

Davina was brilliant, just loved the whole thing once we got into it!!

The Gold (2023–2024)

Another mumbling movie, won't watch any more episodes

[4/10 · 13 February 2023]

Very sadly I have to rate this not highly, mainly due to so much dialogue being incomprehensible due to mumbling!

Whilst I was very interested in the subject and the dramatisation of the robbery and subsequent investigation and disposal of the gold this so far has not delivered. It was confusing and there seemed to be so much jumping about introducing characters that we hadn't a clue who or what they were or where they fitted in.

It is very unlikely that I will bother to return to watch episode 2, after watching what felt like about 2 hours of episode 1.

Sad as the subject was great but the delivery was poor and I'm so annoyed that much of the dialogue was not audible or understandable. And I'm not talking about the south London accents, I'm fine with those!

I should mention that it was not our sound system as we have 7.2.2 Dolby Atmos etc..
