Guys the only thing I dislike is the theme song. I can’t be the only one 🤣
I used to love Jake Bugg back in the day but went off him in the intervening years, however my phone would somehow always find the 3/4 songs I had kept when I put my music on shuffle. So about 6 weeks ago as I went to skip a song yet again, I thought, why am I doing this to myself, snapped and deleted it all off my phone, once and for all. Then when the opening credits to Happy Valley came on, it brought it all back 😩😩

I'm not from up North and it's only in the last few years I've realised there is a place called Halifax 😅

Now it makes sense why the building society used to be called "Leeds" 😅 showing my age there

Didn't it come out he didn't write his own music or something? I always thought he was a bit of a try hard. Still seems to be kicking about doing festivals though.

It is. It’s a bit more of an easy watch the drama in it is more gentle and Sarah Lancashire is in it too.

I wish I’d of rewatched the previous series to be honest there’s a few bits I’m a bit eh? Over as it’s been over six years ago and I got it a bit mixed with Last Tango in Halifax two very different programmes 🤣.
Quoting myself as I’ve missed out certain parts in the over sentence. I swear I can string a coherent sentence together, my autocorrect just loves sabotaging me.

What happened to Jake Bugg? I remember a time when he was everywhere?

Didn’t realise there was a thread for happy valley!! Did anyone else rewatch the first two series before this third one? I had forgotten quite a bit as it was so long ago. But my god did I enjoy rewatching it. Catherine has to be one of the best written female characters on tv. I’ll be devastated when it ends.
I did and I loved it. I couldn’t take my eyes off the tv. I swear I must have been distracted when I watched first time round. I’m so invested I’ve watched each episode of series 3 twice.

And my beloved mum & dad always told me to watch Last Tango in Halifax but I was always too busy. I shall watch it now and wish they were alive so I could tell them they were absolutely right 😢

Oh I’m so sorry ❤ They clearly had good taste! How sweet they watched it together.

Can anyone recommend any other BBC/ITV dramas that are worth a watch? 😊
Line of Duty is the best one, imo. Unforgotten is good, so is Bodyguard, Giri/Haji, Broadchurch, Bad Sisters… Gosh, there’s so many I love! I’m Aussie and I’m obsessed with UK crime dramas!

A new series called The Rig on Prime is meant to be good - Martin Compston, Mark Bonnar, Iain Glen, Mark Addy and Emily Hampshire (she was brilliant in Schitt's Creek) to name a few. I meant to make a start watching it this weekend but life got in the way.

The Capture is amazing !! Sherwood on iPlayer is a good watch & as someone else mentioned, Unforgotten on ITV is fantastic.
