Panchayat, Special Ops, State Of Seige 26/11 are all wonderful.
Right now getting a dose of an eternal favourite, Yes Minister. Yes Prime Minister next.

Home Before Dark on Apple TV+: Based on real-life. A “9-year old investigative reporter” (you read that right) in the hometown of her father...
Did you like it?
Finished it... Rarely been disappointed with a highly rated series of this genre so far.I agree with you re. what grates wrt the 9-year old speaking like an adult. The stuff with the kids is overdone, IMO. I do like the father-son dynamics in play and how it gets torn during a traumatic episode.
I'm hanging in there for the whodunit. The pace has quickened (I believe we're at Episode 6). Not much more faffing around possible.
Defending Jacob on Apple TV+: A school boy is found dead in a park. An assistant DA, who is assigned to the case, has a son who is the murdered boy's classmate. 3 episodes in (4th due for release today, IIRC). Very, very highly recommended.
Completed the season. Worth a watch.4 episodes of Alex Rider. I'm hooked. Anthony Horowitz's teen spy novels have got a TV series avatar. Not top notch but slick production, average story line, definitely interesting enough to watch. I did not read the books - so cant compare it to anything!
Story: When Alex Rider learns that his uncle Ian has been killed in the line of duty as a British spy - and not in a car accident like he's been told - everything changes for this otherwise normal teen. He is approached by Alan Blunt, head of a shadowy offshoot of MI6 known as The Department, who reveals that Alex has been unknowingly trained since childhood for the dangerous world of espionage. Pressured to help investigate his uncle's death - and how it connects to the assassination of two high-profile billionaires - Alex reluctantly assumes a new identity and goes undercover in a remote boarding school called Point Blanc. Isolated far above the snowline in the French Alps, Point Blanc claims to set the troubled teenage children of the ultra-rich back onto the right track. But as he digs deeper, Alex discovers that the students are in fact the subjects of a disturbing plan by the mysterious Doctor Greif - a plan which he will have to risk his life to stop.

Enjoy.
BCS : One of the best series of recent times. Goes down like fine scotch.For me the last season of better call Saul was one of the most thrilling ones I had seen in a long time.
