Its that time again where I share my favourite tv
shows with you and i have some pretty good ones in my list this time.
C A L L T H E M I D W I F E
A classic
show for me which I have been watching for years. I ended up missing the
seventh series when it was aired on tv so I am so excited that that series is
now on Netflix! I am currently re-watching the sixth series on the website in
preparation since it has been a while, I don't want to forget anything.
I N S I D E NO 9
This is a
recent discovery for me and so far I absolutely love it! I love the concept
that every episode is non related but contains the same actors most of the
time. It stars Steve Pemberton who I have loved ever since first seeing him in
Benidorm. I am now on series 2 and I find them so interesting. My favourite
episode so far was S2E2 with Sheridan Smith, the episode gripped me and
actually made me cry. My second episode I totally recommend is S1E3 which kept
me guessing the whole episode who and what was real.

This is
such a well written, well executed and well produced show, it should be on
every Friday night till the end of time. I started watching this at the
beginning of the year with Callum and we become obsessed really quickly. We
watched all the series' in one go and then got our hearts broken when we were
told the new series was being recorded. We are still waiting for the new series
to air ….

It is no
secret that I love a good documentary especially one recorded in a prison. This
documentary follows young girls in a American correctional facilities and shows
you their struggles inside and outside the facility. The girls started to
really annoy Callum but I watched the series till the end to see how the girls
finished the series.
S E X E D U C A T I O N
What a
brilliant show! There are many questions surrounding this tv shows like why the
hell do they have English accents but an American styled school? But man am I
excited for the next series. Most people have watched this show already but if
you haven't, go download Netflix right now!!

I have loved Stacey way before her stint on Strictly, all the way back in her Blood, Sweat and T-shirts days, so I always watch any new show she brings out. In this doc she spends a weekend at the house of different types or families, from a YouTube family to a house which is child led. I relate to Stacey so much for many different reasons so I love the questions she asks in her interviews.
I N T E R I O R D E S I G N M A S T E R
This show is fantastic and I am not creative at all. watched it while it airs last month and I was pretty sucked in. The show follows interior designers compete to be crowned the master designer and win the prize of designing a hotel in London. My favourite episode so far has been the lodges by the seaside, I really want to go for a weekend break at a lodge in the countryside.

I have always loved a period drama and Sanditon has not disappointed me. Even if I wasn't a fan of period dramas, I would watch it just for Theo James. Imagine him in a gentleman's outfit and a cane... thank me later. I really enjoyed the show which follows a influential family who lives by the sea and tries to make it seaside resort.
A M E R I C A N H O R R O R S T O R I E S
Need I explain this? I have loved this show from the first series and although my interest has dipped along the series, I still watch the new episodes as soon as they are on tv. We are about half way in the new series and so far I seems good. I do miss Evan Peters because he is the king of AHS for me.
F R I E N D S
This show will not get old to me. I had to give it an honourable mention because although it isn't a new find to me, I watched this show every morning while I am getting ready so you can imagine how many times I have started again. I think I am on my 8th straight run of the show and although Callum hates it every time he hears the theme tune, I can't get enough.
What have you been watching?
I am a total Netflix junkie and regularly choose watching something on the app rather than on sky so my Netflix history is quite large. Whenever I watch something really good on it I like to tell everyone to go watch it themselves and I have more films and docs to tell you about today.
Documentaries
The Keepers
I love a good murder mystery doc and I saw the advert for this documentary before it was officially released and couldn't wait to see it. It is based around a group of former pupils from a catholic school in Baltimore who after 40 years are still trying to discover who murders their favourite teacher Sister Cathy Cesnik. It includes reports from police and interviews with former pupils who shed some light on the ins and outs of the school which for 40 years the school and the Archdiocese had tried to hide. I watched the 7 part documentary in one day I was so hooked and at the end I really hopped someone was going to get justice! If you loved Making a Murderer than you will like this.
Reggie Yates Extreme
Another doc I love which follows Reggie Yates as he travels to different countries and looks at sexuality, religion, violence and child modeling among others. He has two volumes of the series and I have watched both because they are really gripping and each of them follow a different concept. My favourite episodes have to be in Russia because it shows how completely different countries can be in the way they act, think and what they believe in.
TV Shows
American Horror Story
I have been obsessed with this series since I first discovered it on Netflix a few years ago. It is so unlike anything else on tv which is way I like it. It can be so disgusting and violent but that is what the show is about. I started with the Murder House series and become hooked from there with the Coven series being my favourite because they are all bad bitches. I watched the latest series about Donald Trump and the election and I still don't know how I feel about it, I felt like it didn't have an ending. But if you like violence, sex, grim behavior then you will love it! Each series is different as well so if you don't enjoy one, there is always something different to try.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
I started watching this series when I was bored living in my parents house when I wanted something to watch and oh my it became my favourite tv show for a very long time. It follows a women who for a number of years was locked in a bunker by a crazy Reverent with three other girls. She has no idea how the world works and then when they are discovered she is thrown into the New York life. I find it hilarious because she is so child like and it has Tituss Burgess in who is an amazing actor and is perfect for the show. It is a really easy watch and so so funny.
Call The Midwife
Netflix got me hooked on Call The Midwife so much that I went out and purchased series 6 on dvd so that I was ready for the current series which is on TV right now. Netflix, why don't you have series 6 that's what I want to know?! Anyway I am totally in love with this series it has made me want to live back in that era because I know I would be Trixie (who should totally still be with Tom, at least in real life they are happy with a new born baby) It deals with a lot of different issues which were common at the time and it is still great to watch as a pick me up.
Films
Before I Fall
This is a really beautiful film about a girl who is involved in a car accident which makes her repeat that single day over and over again until she makes a change which is going to stop the accident happening, easier said then done. During the film she learns a lot about herself, her friends and the people around her which coupled with the fact shes in a car accident made me cry like a baby. I love films where something happens to a character which makes them have out of body experiences.
Autumn Dreams
This film is about a couple who elope in their teens but are separated by the girls father because of their age, they don't see each other for a good few years until they discover their marriage was never annulled at the time. They are both also engaged to other people when they find out so they obviously want to sort it quick but it involves spending time with each other which you can guess what happens. Love love love this film Colin Egglesfield is a fittie as well which makes watching it even more enjoyable!
The Choice
This is a typical american romantic film about a bad boy who films for the sweet girl next door but their are other people involved and there is a cute dog running around. Then when you think finally everyone is happy something happens and I really didn't see it coming. I was a mess after watching this film so I will warn you get tissues and a cuddly toy to hold because you will be crying. The film is worth the cry though and if you love a boy with a southern accent then you need to hear Benjamin Walker's southern accent...
A Christmas Prince
Lastly to remind us of happier times over Christmas I watched A Christmas Prince which is so good. I love sappy hallmark films and this is a typical one about a reporter who wants to get a story on the rebellious young prince and ends up with a job in the royal house by mistake and falls for the dashing prince. I blame these kind of films for my need to marry a prince which is obviously never going to happy since both Hazza and Wills are loved up.
Do you have any recommendations for Netflix?
I have a big list of shows and films I want to watch but I have room for me!
