Morning Tara, Good morning, 11 00:00:35,893 --> 00:00:38,333 Speaker 2: A couple of shows I'm really excited about this morning. 12 00:00:38,453 --> 00:00:41,013 Speaker 2: Let's start off with the latest one streaming on Netflix. 13 00:00:41,013 --> 00:00:42,373 Speaker 2: Tell us about Territory. 14 00:00:43,253 --> 00:00:46,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a new Australian drama and it's sort 15 00:00:46,133 --> 00:00:49,693 Speaker 3: of a mix of Yellowstone and Succession. It's set in 16 00:00:49,733 --> 00:00:52,973 Speaker 3: the Northern Territory on the biggest cattle station in the country, 17 00:00:53,013 --> 00:00:55,733 Speaker 3: which is about the same size as Belgium, and it's 18 00:00:55,733 --> 00:00:59,453 Speaker 3: about the family, the Lawsons, who run the station. Starts 19 00:00:59,493 --> 00:01:01,853 Speaker 3: with the death of the sun who's been running the farm, 20 00:01:01,973 --> 00:01:05,093 Speaker 3: and that triggers a big power struggle about who will 21 00:01:05,093 --> 00:01:08,093 Speaker 3: take over. You've got the secondson who wants the job. 22 00:01:08,133 --> 00:01:11,653 Speaker 3: But as an alcoholic. You've got the wayward grandson who's 23 00:01:11,693 --> 00:01:16,333 Speaker 3: into some dodgy criminal activity. You've got businessmen who want 24 00:01:16,373 --> 00:01:18,173 Speaker 3: to come in and mind the land and make a 25 00:01:18,173 --> 00:01:20,053 Speaker 3: lot of money off it. And you've got the daughter 26 00:01:20,093 --> 00:01:22,733 Speaker 3: in law who's played by the brilliant annatof who is 27 00:01:22,773 --> 00:01:25,133 Speaker 3: the most skilled and savvy of them all, but is 28 00:01:25,213 --> 00:01:27,933 Speaker 3: overlooked because she's a woman. And so the family in 29 00:01:27,973 --> 00:01:30,893 Speaker 3: the show is very dysfunctional and this power struggle to 30 00:01:31,573 --> 00:01:33,733 Speaker 3: take over and run the farm is going to play out. 31 00:01:33,813 --> 00:01:38,013 Speaker 3: And this very dry, dusty, remote location where you need 32 00:01:38,053 --> 00:01:40,413 Speaker 3: to rely on the same community of people who are 33 00:01:40,453 --> 00:01:43,773 Speaker 3: also trying to undercut and do a deal and betray you. 34 00:01:44,293 --> 00:01:47,453 Speaker 3: It's a very serious. It's exactly what you would expect 35 00:01:47,493 --> 00:01:50,693 Speaker 3: from an Australian drama in the outback. There's kind of 36 00:01:50,693 --> 00:01:53,893 Speaker 3: no surprises here, but I think this is Netflix making 37 00:01:54,333 --> 00:01:58,093 Speaker 3: an Australian drama that will have universal global appeal. A 38 00:01:58,133 --> 00:02:01,533 Speaker 3: great cast. Sarah Wiseman and Jay Ryan, both New Zealand actors, 39 00:02:01,533 --> 00:02:03,733 Speaker 3: are in this, And yeah, I really enjoyed this. It's 40 00:02:03,733 --> 00:02:05,973 Speaker 3: a compelling, easy watch for the long weekend. 41 00:02:06,733 --> 00:02:10,613 Speaker 2: Nice. Okay, that's territory. That's on Netflix. Very excited about 42 00:02:10,613 --> 00:02:13,053 Speaker 2: this next one also streaming on Netflix. And we all 43 00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:17,053 Speaker 2: knew it was coming, didn't we. Simone Biles Rising Part two. 44 00:02:18,013 --> 00:02:21,093 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the second part of the documentary series 45 00:02:21,173 --> 00:02:24,053 Speaker 3: about the incredible American gymnast Simone Biles. And we talked 46 00:02:24,053 --> 00:02:26,293 Speaker 3: about this series a couple of months ago when it 47 00:02:26,333 --> 00:02:29,013 Speaker 3: came out before the Olympics and said, you know, if 48 00:02:29,013 --> 00:02:32,653 Speaker 3: anyone deserves a redemption arc, it's Simobiles. And now we 49 00:02:32,733 --> 00:02:35,213 Speaker 3: have it. So Netflix have just released two more episodes 50 00:02:35,253 --> 00:02:38,893 Speaker 3: of this series, following Simone Biles as she goes back 51 00:02:38,933 --> 00:02:41,493 Speaker 3: to the Olympics and competes at Paris and fulfills that 52 00:02:41,613 --> 00:02:45,333 Speaker 3: goal of battling through the pain and overcoming all the 53 00:02:45,333 --> 00:02:48,493 Speaker 3: things she's needed to overcome to win gold. And I 54 00:02:48,533 --> 00:02:50,813 Speaker 3: wanted to mention this again today because so many people 55 00:02:50,853 --> 00:02:53,253 Speaker 3: have told me that they loved Part one of this documentary. 56 00:02:53,613 --> 00:02:56,013 Speaker 3: Part two episodes are just as good. It's about her 57 00:02:56,013 --> 00:02:58,373 Speaker 3: life and her sacrifices what it takes to be the 58 00:02:58,493 --> 00:03:00,773 Speaker 3: very best. But also there's lots of footage of her 59 00:03:00,813 --> 00:03:03,133 Speaker 3: competing at Paris and lots of that behind the scenes 60 00:03:03,173 --> 00:03:05,533 Speaker 3: action that I just love as well. So if you 61 00:03:05,613 --> 00:03:06,293 Speaker 3: enjoyed Part one. 62 00:03:06,453 --> 00:03:07,733 Speaker 1: This is the icing on the cake. 63 00:03:08,293 --> 00:03:10,133 Speaker 2: Do you reckon there would have been a part two 64 00:03:10,213 --> 00:03:12,653 Speaker 2: if Paris hadn't gone well? Or is it like this 65 00:03:12,693 --> 00:03:15,573 Speaker 2: is entirely as Part two, entirely contingent on who doing 66 00:03:15,613 --> 00:03:16,253 Speaker 2: well in Paris. 67 00:03:17,173 --> 00:03:20,933 Speaker 3: No, I feel like it would have. They would have 68 00:03:20,933 --> 00:03:25,213 Speaker 3: made it regardless. I think she's the type of person 69 00:03:25,293 --> 00:03:29,693 Speaker 3: that is inspirational no matter what challenges she faces. So 70 00:03:29,773 --> 00:03:32,693 Speaker 3: even if she hadn't pulled off those goals in Paris, 71 00:03:32,733 --> 00:03:35,293 Speaker 3: I think this still would have been a pretty compelling 72 00:03:35,493 --> 00:03:36,413 Speaker 3: emotional watch. 73 00:03:37,053 --> 00:03:39,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, nice, I'm really looking forward to seeing that. 74 00:03:39,373 --> 00:03:42,333 Speaker 2: So that is Simone Biles Rising Part two that's on Netflix. 75 00:03:42,373 --> 00:03:44,133 Speaker 2: In our third show, I was on Netflix this morning 76 00:03:44,173 --> 00:03:46,973 Speaker 2: as well. It's an old bit of goody. Line of Beauty. 77 00:03:47,773 --> 00:03:49,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, Sadly, I'm not here to say that there is 78 00:03:49,533 --> 00:03:51,573 Speaker 3: a new season of Line of Judy. I wish there was, 79 00:03:51,613 --> 00:03:53,933 Speaker 3: but I can say that all six seasons have just 80 00:03:54,013 --> 00:03:56,973 Speaker 3: landed on Netflix, and as you say, an old bit 81 00:03:56,973 --> 00:03:59,053 Speaker 3: of goody. And if you haven't seen Line of Duty before, 82 00:03:59,093 --> 00:04:01,733 Speaker 3: I really recommend this. Probably one of the best British 83 00:04:01,813 --> 00:04:05,293 Speaker 3: drama series ever made. It's a thriller, about a police 84 00:04:05,293 --> 00:04:08,813 Speaker 3: department who have to investigate corrupt police officers. So they 85 00:04:08,853 --> 00:04:12,093 Speaker 3: are investigating their colleagues and the deeper they dig, the 86 00:04:12,093 --> 00:04:14,773 Speaker 3: more corruption they find. And there is just twist after 87 00:04:14,813 --> 00:04:17,653 Speaker 3: twist after twist. It's a Jed Mercurio drama and he 88 00:04:17,773 --> 00:04:20,533 Speaker 3: is famous for dropping viewers straight into the action from 89 00:04:20,533 --> 00:04:23,213 Speaker 3: the opening scenes. There is never a slow start to 90 00:04:23,293 --> 00:04:26,653 Speaker 3: Line A Duty. Season one came out in twenty twelve, 91 00:04:26,693 --> 00:04:28,173 Speaker 3: but it is one of those shows that you can 92 00:04:29,053 --> 00:04:31,493 Speaker 3: just watch over and over again. It's an a Duradassic 93 00:04:31,613 --> 00:04:34,613 Speaker 3: and already it's in Netflix's top ten in New Zealand, 94 00:04:34,693 --> 00:04:37,333 Speaker 3: so we're loving it. And if you want something classic 95 00:04:37,413 --> 00:04:39,493 Speaker 3: and just so good to binge through this long weekend, 96 00:04:39,853 --> 00:04:40,773 Speaker 3: you can't go wrong. 97 00:04:40,533 --> 00:04:41,053 Speaker 1: With this one. 98 00:04:41,173 --> 00:04:44,533 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to add to your recommendations for binging, 99 00:04:44,573 --> 00:04:46,933 Speaker 2: and I know this is a real favorite for many 100 00:04:46,973 --> 00:04:49,933 Speaker 2: people listening this morning. But on the way flying over 101 00:04:49,973 --> 00:04:51,453 Speaker 2: here to New York, I knew that I'd have to 102 00:04:51,453 --> 00:04:53,293 Speaker 2: pick out a couple of things just in case the 103 00:04:54,293 --> 00:04:57,453 Speaker 2: selection on the plane wasn't to my liking. So I 104 00:04:57,493 --> 00:05:00,773 Speaker 2: did that thing where I subscribed to Apple TV and 105 00:05:00,813 --> 00:05:03,893 Speaker 2: I downloaded the full series of Slow Horses the latest 106 00:05:03,893 --> 00:05:05,853 Speaker 2: one because I didn't want to wait. I didn't want 107 00:05:05,853 --> 00:05:07,493 Speaker 2: to have to have drip fed to me over the 108 00:05:07,573 --> 00:05:10,933 Speaker 2: last two months or six weeks over long, so I 109 00:05:10,973 --> 00:05:13,413 Speaker 2: waited for the finale and then I downloaded the whole 110 00:05:13,453 --> 00:05:15,733 Speaker 2: series so I could binge watch it in one go. 111 00:05:16,133 --> 00:05:18,773 Speaker 2: So good. Slow Horses is just so good. So if 112 00:05:18,813 --> 00:05:21,133 Speaker 2: anyone hasn't seen Slow Horses yet, I'm going to add 113 00:05:21,453 --> 00:05:23,733 Speaker 2: your recommendations. And I know you've talked about it before. 114 00:05:23,733 --> 00:05:26,133 Speaker 2: You're a big fan as well. Tara, Hey, thank you 115 00:05:26,173 --> 00:05:30,253 Speaker 2: so much so.
