The Box set of 12 discs came today so have begun re-watching Centennial - very good [:)]

Well I'm onto CD 3. I've got to say £10 for 26 hours of viewing is pretty good value [:)] especially when its such a good story - definitely as good as I remembered all those years ago. Just a shame they couldn't have got a real Scotsman (or at least an actor that could do the accent) to play McKeag.
I've ordered the box now.

Just finished watching "Broadchurch" - really really good.

Can't see how they can make a series two without wholesale cast changes though !

I am watching Series 2 at the moment and guess what? Apart from a couple of departures, the cast is exactly the same [;)]

Yes, I did. But I only remember that I liked it and that I was impressed by Clay Basket (Barbara Carrera).

Lots of good crime drama made in UK.

The Imitation Game was fantastic. WWII, intelligence, research, intrigue, drama, and history.

Sons of liberty... Someone should nudge old warspites rocker and wake him. How could an uneducated Sam Adams even dare to stur up so much dander against the most just and honorable royal crown?!?! This is just outrageous!

Edit: Loving the Sam Adams beer commercials! Especially the one when the Englishman says "how could you name a great beer like this after a rebel rouser"! Part one is tonight followed by episodes Monday and Tuesday nights on the history channel.

The British film shot during the liberation of Bergen-Belsen.
It is painful to watch, but a film I think should be made mandatory in schools, as it tells the true horror of the KZ camps in a way I've not seen before...

Watched Maleficent with the little warspites. A very good film with a nice twist on the regular Sleeping Beauty fairytale [:)]

Channel 4's Indian Summers and BBC's The Casual Vacancy.

Both started reasonably well, let's hope they continue in the same vein....

Broadchurch ends next week [:(] This series has had its knockers - but I'm still enjoying it [:)] and David Tennant and Olivia Coleman are always worth watching.
