What's currently good on the BBC iPlayer?

A 2-parter on Howard Marks aka Mr Nice was an alright watch.
Yes, I quite enjoyed it.

It's not very accurate in some places.

And there's also a bit where this veteran smuggler Roger Reaves says something like 'Meeting Howard Marks was the worst thing that ever happened to me in my life' - but he's actually spent a total of 33 years in prison in a long career starting long before he met Howard Marks, including spells in the US, Germany and Australia penal systems, and previously worked for Pablo Escobar and the Medellin cartel. So I have my doubts...
 
Irish crime drama Crá set in Donegal is really good. I was feeling a bit under the weather today and ended up binge watching all six episodes. It's in Irish with English subtitles which made it even more enjoyable.
Just started watching and had a "where have I seen him in before ?" moment and it took me a couple of minutes to place Connor from Young offenders.

I liked the first episode though I'm not sure if I can suspend my disbelief for the second. Mobile phone signals surely can't be that good in the remote bogland of rural Ireland 😂
 
I’ve enjoyed watching The Listeners. It’s an intriguing story and one I’ve not seen before. It’s about a group of people who can hear a low frequency hum that others cannot hear.

To be fair, I’d watch Rebecca Hall open a packet of peanuts but that’s just me 😉
