Sorry if this was already posted. The recent posts are so many and I fractured my fibula two days ago so I just skimmed them. I think I saw a post by mllemass on how to watch PM in Canada. I guess this is for the UK but I'll try to watch it. radiotimes PM

It's a good idea to have this information all in one thread, so I'm posting this again! Here's how to watch in Canada:
It turns out that yes, my parents do get these movie channels, but they have no way to record shows. So unless I want to spend the next 5 Saturday evenings watching tv with my parents, I will have to find another solution!

I have zero willpower when it comes to Benedict!
I just signed up for Crave tv so that I can get Showtime. But it looks like it won't cost me anything because there's a free trial period. They're not going to charge my credit card until June 12, unless I cancel before that. And since the fifth episode of Patrick Melrose airs June 9, I'll make it with a couple of days to spare!

I am not regretting for a moment that I signed up for Crave. Both Dan and I really like their selection of programming. Right now we are watching on a weekly basis Billions (we have been fans of Damian Lewis ever since Band of Brothers and really enjoy watching Paul Giamatti since Sideways) and rewatching Frasier on a daily basis. Plus we have seen the wonderful John Adams series and I have 28 other items in my Favs to watch or rewatch. They have Parade’s End and Stuart: A life Backwards, as well (but I have those on DVD). And we are probably watch the rest of Homeland (a series that I loved in the beginning, grew disinterested in for a bit and then fell in love with it again last season). It also has the very popular Game of Thrones (something that isn’t my cup of tea but is very popular) so if you are a fan of that it is there. I see there are lots of limited series as well (that I have seen in the recent past - like Wizard of Lies and All the Way) so I am hopeful that there will be more of that sort of thing in the future.
But I can’t disguise it - I got it because of Patrick Melrose! I just wasn’t going to miss that no matter what!

I don’t know whether this really belongs here or not, but I just wanted to ask if anyone else is going to make a special night of this?
I used to do that for “appointment” TV watching - kind of like making it a “date night”! I would make a special dinner, we would have a before dinner cocktail maybe and then after dinner settle in to watch our programme! Sometimes (if I was in a fan community) I would go on later and have a “live chat” with a small group of fans and discuss the show (this was for Frasier episodes). The whole thing made it kind of special and it was fun.
Tonight we are having some beef tenderloin steaks, sweet potato and riced cauliflower blend, and a Caesar salad - with yogurt (with flax seeds mixed in with it) for dessert. Maybe some dark chocolate with whiskey while we watch the first episode? I’ll play that part by ear. :-))
I got so nervous when I saw that Crave had taken down the “preview” of PM that I actually called them today and checked that it indeed was running tonight!! Silly me!! But I am so looking forward to it that I was kind of nervous when I saw it was missing. They said it was usual for them to do this and it will appear at 9 pm when the show starts. Whew!!!
Anyway, regardless if you are having a special viewing night or not, I hope everyone who is able enjoys the show!!!
:-))

I am having a personal party tonight as well! Shrimp fettuccine, broccoli, with apple pie and ice cream for dessert. A little herbal soother and I’m right as rain. I am sooooo looking forward to this!
