I am watching less TV these days. This runs against the grain of the reported national average of 6.5 hours a day thanks to more people staying at home during the Covid-19 lockdown. What I have found is that a combination of staying in more, combined with Brexit doom is that I am much more inclined to only watch things with subtitles. The latest BBC4 Saturday night foreign TV slot was filled with The Last Wave, a French series of barely credible nonsense (unravel that). This is the only way one hears foreign languages now, a small compensation for not being able to visit foreign lands. Belgium I note is off limits again. I hope the Belgian TV industry gets its act together and makes a third series of Salamander, this time focused around my favourite bar in Bruges. It would be a small compensation for not being there. I would happily play a bit part as a British villain, although I imagine the competition for such a role would be tough.
