From someone who doesn't watch a lot of TV (and I'll probably end up missing loads off anyway)

1) Penny Dreadful Season 2. Favourite Episode; The Nightcomers (3). Favourite Performance...tricky call, but Eva Green just takes the crown for me. Could pick most of the cast though, especially the actresses.

2) Sense8 Season 1. Favourite Episode; I Can't Leave Her (finale). Favourite Performance; Miguel Silvestre and Tuppence Middleton

3) The Last Kingdom Season 1. Favourite Episode; 8 (The Finale) Favourite Performance; David Dawson (Alfred)

4) AKA Jessica Jones Season 1. Favourite Episode; AKA Top Shelf Perverts. Favourite Performance; David Tenant (Killgrave)

5) Orphan Black Season 3. Favourite Episode; Certain Agony of the Battlefield (6). Favourite Performance; Tatiana Maslany (duh?). But who as you ask? Hmm....probably Helena. Or Sarah.

6) Orange is the New Black Season 3. Favourite Episode; We Can Be Heroes (11) Favourite Performance; duo again. Lee DeLaria (Big Boo) and Taryn Manning (Pennsatucky)
