Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
That is good to know, I was still in NA in 2009. I couldn't imagine how something could have escaped my beady eyes, on a Sunday morning, when I am scouring the TV Guide.
Too bad!
Too bad!
and you have only a day or so for the rest

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
That is what I should have done with "Broadchurch". I did lose a bit of interest in it as it seemed to drag in places. "The Politician's Husband" got a very good review (not that reviews are always credible) so I am hopeful that it will be enjoyable. It is written by same writer as the "The Politicians Wife"
We watched the first episode of Broadchurch a few weeks ago...wasn't too thrilled with it so only got round to watching the second episode last weekend. Problem was the first episode was so forgettable that we couldn't get to grips with the second one. Being as almost everyone has posted that it is good we will try again...starting at episode 1.
Do you get Netflix in the UK? If so it maybe available there.

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
I always save 2 and 3 part dramas before watching them...not always so easy when it's a full series of 6 or more episodes.

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
Netflix is not a TV channel...you subscribe monthly....no contract. Very reasonable rates and you have several packages to chose from. Lots of old TV series...films etc. The newer ones are on DVD...the older ones you can stream through your computer, Wii etc.

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
I'm still hanging in there with The Village. I really don't think it's that bad. Just saw all of season 1 of Gavin and Stacey on Netflix. That's the only season they have. BUT, just checked over at Amazon Prime and they have 2 & 3 as well 
It's brilliant! Anyone else seen it?

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
I know it's terribly slow and does take itself terribly seriously, but there are some redeeming features, surely, otherwise why would we still be watching it

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
I downloaded it but havnt watched it yet. Not sure I want to waste my time on it. I did watch a small part of the first episode and didnt much care for it.

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
The Village has been hard work but I have to carry on now to see what happens to them all. I love John Simm and Maxine Peake, fantastic actors who have made me want to tune in every week, despite the dire mood of the show.

I just saw "Vicious" with Ian McKellan and Derek Jacobi. Not too sure yet what to make of it.

Re: Broadchurch and Other UK TV Programs
I know... I saw the ads and thought it looked like it was going to be funny. Missed the first showing, but it's on again tonight so will watch the first one and see how it turns out.
