Lingo (2021)
OK afternoon quiz, spoilt by unnatural host
This has the potential to be a good afternoon show (and provide some lockdown relief!). However, it's made difficult to watch because of Adil Ray the presenter - he is far too forced and patronising. If ITV plan to record more episodes and retain viewers, they need a far more natural host (such as Zoe Lyons, host of Lightening on BBC2, launched about the same time as Lingo).
Finding Alice (2021)
Only managed 40mins of 1st episode...
... and that was a struggle! From trailers looked like it could be an easy Sunday evening watch with a good cast. However, the first few minutes were a good indication of how unrealistic the whole thing is: family move into their new SMART house which is fully kitted out with all their furniture, clothes and other worldly goods, but nobody other than husband/father had apparently set foot in the place before! Then of course he promptly dies/murdered. Got increasingly worse from there.
