What are you watching?

I'm debating getting BritBox which if you don't know is a British TV service that pulls in content from all over the UK.

What are you guys watching? That might help me decide whether or not to sign up.

Playing Devil's advocate here, but isn't a great deal of the content on Britbox available for free on various catch up's that can be seen free on a smart tv or a Firestick/Roku device? For me I guess it depends upon what original content they have to offer and whether it's stuff that's likely to interest me and of course the cost of the subscription per month. I pay £4.99 per month for the basic Netflix subscription and it's excellent, similarly oh subscribes to Amazon prime so i have access to that too and it's pretty good especially for films, not all are free of course but I refuse to pay any extra, but I've seen some great stuff. I also have Apple tv, tbh I probably wouldn't bother with it alone, but I've subscribed to Apple music for years and I was offered a package including Apple Tv and Apple games for just not much more than what I was paying for the music alone. Apple tv does some brilliant music documentaries but it is the one I tune into the least.

Now we've got Netflix free for 18 months with our Sky puck and tbh not seen a single thing I'd watch.
The sky puck is rubbish,anything you stream freezes,screen goes black or it jumps to another programme among other problems.
We've got to keep it for another 15 months or be charged a huge exit fee. They tried telling us it was our Internet but we've got nearly 500mbps and it's full fibre.
