REVIEWS:
I reviewed 'The Watch' as I very much like the casting that was done & the acting. In my opinion, they have done a good adaptation of Pratchett & I recommend it. Lisa followed, saying she finds it quite enjoyable & she looks forward to future episodes

Lisa reviewed staying in the hospital as it sucks & the food is fairly good & she is trying to avoid catching Covid-19

Dave C reviewed the Dr Who festive Yule Log as it can still be found on cable TV = URL
