I noticed that a lot of Amazon movies on  prime have to be paid for seperately too

Amazon is a platform, also for other services. But I dont think I ever seen a price increase of 100% and another of 50% if you want to get rid of ads within the time span of less than a year.

King and Conqueror on the BBC. It's a bit shit really, but as I'm half way through I feel obliged to complete it. Anyway I know how it ends.

True but I'm pretty sure that most if not all of the movies on the streaming platform used to be free. An awful lot more have to be paid for now

Started watching The Guest on BBC last night. An intriguing start that will probably ensure our continued viewing.

The fourth and final season of the excellent Upload. Only 4 short episodes and tbh this wasn't really needed, but I suppose it rounds things off nicely. 6/10 for this season and 8/10 overall.

Dexter.. Resurrection...  used to love the first few seasons.. the last two were dire..  so they managed to cobble together a reboot of it.. was certainly a bit more watchable but ultimately a bit silly and fairly predictable

Season 2 of Wednesday. More of the same, but doesn't seem as good as the first season - early days though.

I've been WFH with a bit of a cold so I've had the TUC conference live stream on - with, apparently, a grand total of 33 other viewers.

Still, an interesting experience...

Is it the episode where they constantly moan about everyone being unfair to them?

I wouldn't say it was constant, but otherwise there was a bit of that, yes. :)
