Years and Years is very RTD, with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer you'd expect from his stuff. With that said, the cast is good and there are some great moments. The end of the first episode, for example is chilling.

Mawaan's attempt to pick up the phone box and inflate an egg had me belly laughing. It's only one episode in but it already feels like the best lineup in years.

Absolutely outrageous that Daisy's non-upside down film got more points than Richard Herring's.

Yeah, it was a series of poor tasks in the latest episode. The security guard one was particularly bad.

Line of Duty would have worked better if each series had been a self contained investigation. Instead we got this absurdly self-referential, over-the-top mess sustained apparently because nobody wanted to be the first to admit that it was poo poo and only the first couple of series were any good.

I've avoided Peaky Blinders on the assumption it's in the same bracket as Line of Duty as largely poo poo but due to a collective desperate belief that the BBC can still make decent dramatic TV everyone has subconsciously decided to pretend it's really good and warrants hyping up. The above plot summaries don't fill me with confidence to change this.

I'm not sure why you'd bring back a show like Happy Valley after so long only to spend what feels like two thirds of a six episode series on filler plot lines that go nowhere. The only really hanging thread from the end of the second series was Ryan's letters to Tommy Lee Royce. That story was resolved reasonably well (Line of Duty-esque court escape aside) but that could have been the focus of the series without the PE teacher/Pharmacist stuff.
