The Regime has become a bit soap-operish. But it may be because the latest episode was directed by someone other than Stephen Frears so I'm sticking with it.

" It's a story about a codpiecce and a hunchback"
"Love it, a deformed bell-ringer turns ito Superman and falls in love with a a gypsy dancer "
" That's not quite it"
" Has it a Cathedral?"
"Emm, we have a strong clerical theme"
"Great, Love it!" "Plenty of dark Gothic mystery, no doubt"
"Well yes" "I mean" "Hell YES!"
"Set in Europe?"
"We can do that if you like, a fine sprinking of Euro Castle Disney"
"What's the working title"
"Shardlake"
"Hmmm. You might need to work on that, still love the concept, get me Sean Bean!"

Bean There, Done That
I've been listening to Shardlake on R4X with only a limited amount of engagement but I am now bereft of all streaming services so I am reliant on your daughter for further intelligence.

Changing Ends (ITV-1)
Not the sort of broad comedy I would watch (or I would watch and keep quiet about it) but this has two oddities that commend it (1) a real football manager, Graham Carr, of Northampton Town (of the seventies when the series is set) and (2) the adult Alan Carr acting as a fourth wall device.
Check it out and tell me I'm not wrong.
