    Hey all.

    Since we’ve all had a bit more time on our hands than normal I had a request to ask this.

    what’s been the best box set you’ve watched.

    see I have to go with Peaky Blinders, love it.

    I've enjoyed some great boxes recently. Malbec in particular was very good.

    Missed Broadchurch first time round - that started again on ITV last night. Enjoyed it, but those fkin advert breaks don’t half grind my gears.

    I agree that 'the Wire' is the best.

    Others worth a mention is the criminally underrated 'Justified' and 'Bosch' which is my current favourite.
