i'm actually a graceless of t v vor a sort of very high exacting standards, and i easily, gt, get irritated by shows. We just washed three episodes of broadchurch last night to finish off season one, ecause it was just so good. And thank you also, for readers who have sent in emales with viewing tips to me, that's n much appreciated.

Join David and Curtis as they discuss this timely topic and offer some guidance for how we can make some space for grace in our public discourse.
