    If you have Netflix, you could give Glitch a try. It's an Australian supernatural/fantasy show with apocalyptic themes, particularly in the 3rd (final) series. Might not be everybody's cup of tea, but I quite enjoyed it.

    If you fancy something a bit different and don't mind subtitles, me and my missus have just binge watched the Are Murders. Here's a review:

    Netflix’s Best New Crime Show Is Here, And No Critics Have Seen It

    We tend to watch a lot of European stuff on C4's Walter Presents and have seen some good stuff. Quite a lot more grisly than your typical UK/US equivalent. Again, you have to not mind subs though!

    American Primeval, if you want something gritty, violent and gory. Excellent storyline too.

    Adolescence on Netflix. Outstanding cinematography and some fantastic performances.

    Late to the party. If anyone can filter the suggestions to include any of the following: Funny, romantic, informative, but exclude: sad, horror, upsetting, harrowing. That would be great.
    I’ve watched “The Magic Roundabout” and “Pretty Woman” way too many times. Need alternatives. :)

    And filmed in South Kirkby and South Elmsall last year. The opening scenes where the kid was arrested is my mum's street - I saw her car on the drive. And the school where the majority of the second episode was filmed is Minsthorpe High, my old school.

    Good little series so far, but proper weird seeing your local patch on the telly.

    Another vote for Adolescene. It worked really well how it was all filmed in one camera sequence rather than seperate scenes.

    Votes also for Toxic Town and Running Point.

    Candy: A Death in Texas on 4.
    Based on a true story from 1980.
    Jessica Biel plays main character so brilliantly.
    Not totally dissimilar to the Fargo’s

    It's good but I thought love & death with Elizabeth Olson and Jessie Plemons which is the same true story was better .........sithi.
