Just watched episode 1 of season 2 of the boys
Not sure there is as much drive or purpose to the story but only 1 ep in....It is a LOT of fun!

Also loved Aya Cash in you're the worst, she is a terrific addition as stormfront

Hello, I got in contact with Amazon about transfering my account to the UK version of Prime and the customer service rep stated that there was no option to transfer prime subscription to the UK. They said I would have to sign up again to the UK account.

They must be cracking down on the ROI accounts

Did you originally sign up amazon.com or amazon.co.uk?

I started watching The Bureau last week and Amazon seem to have pulled it. I wish they'd put up expiry dates like Netflix do...

Quazzie, I originally signed up a long time ago to the co.uk one, with my Revolut card. Then, for various reasons I switched to my normal debit card, and the whole Amazon account switched to .com.



I suppose the only solution is to use my revolut card to sign up to the co.uk one again?



Is there much more to watch, on the UK one compared to the Irish one? Or is it near enough the same, except for the football matches?

It's fun, not life changing or anything, but a few laughs.

Fleabag season 2 isn't appearing on my prime, don't think it ever has. And it's been on my watchlist since I signed up for prime!

fman

Fleabag is one of those weird ones. If you search for fleabag, you will find it, season 1 available and 2 not.
BUT if you search for fleabag season 2, you should find it and in its listing season 1 isn't available. Weird, confusing and valid as of earlier today if nothing has changed in the mean time.
I've had a similar thing for the Americans, seasons 1-4 and then 5-6 in different blocks.

Watched Masterchef Ireland over the last week never seen it. Am dipping in and out of Hell’s Kitchen USA too. A lot of stuff on prime I wasn’t aware of. The app isn’t very user friendly beyond the headline category items.

Watching a cop show called Bosch at the moment, four episodes in and it’s slow but quite good.

Thank you!! I'd thought I'd seen season 2 on it before but it never showed as being on prime in my watchlist

I think the same thing happens with one season of Futurama as well.

I find it a bit of a PITA to navigate in comparison to NF, but search seems to work ok. Just searched Gordon Ramsay for example and it does bring up all of his prime shows.

That's all I need, cheers Bit of light entertainment in a movie that isn't American for a change, to go with me Bulmer's at the weekend.

Yeah same here, very annoying!

In fairness, I wish Netflix would be like Prime where you can see things in your watchlist have been removed.

beauf

In my Prime it doesn't remove things, they just switch to paid without telling me.

Amazon are making the move into rugby broadcasting - Snapped up rights to England home games this autumn. Would mean Ireland's game in Twickenham would only be on Amazon, Aviva matches remain on RTÉ on Channel 4.

Grinders is a good documentary about some dead end poker players.

I might actually give that a try [used to play a lot myself, it was a dead end for me!] - But, says it's not available in my location?

Only option it'll give me is to buy the HD version for 9.99

golfball37

I watched the first 3 episodes of fleabag a few weeks ago. I went to return to it last night and only season 2 was available for me but season one was still on the app.

A few things on my watch list are no longer available now either.

beauf

After having Prime Video for about 6 months have to say the revolving door of can you see something or not, is really wearing me down. I'll probably cancel it.

I really hope I didn’t pay €10 for it !!!

gmisk

I see 71 has been added, absolutely cracking film set in the troubles, with a British soldier having to survive on the streets of belfast after a riot

Thecageyone

71 is also only availbe to rent/DL for me here.
