Re: UK TV Programs
Just watched "Turks and Caicos" on BBC2. Superb near le-Carre spy story by David Hare (written and directed).
Some of my all-time favourite actors (Bill Nighy, Helen Bonham-Carter, Ralph Fiennes, etc) and a sequel to "Phase Eight" from 2011.
Third and final part later this week "Salting the Battlefield."
Guardian and Indy both rated it very highly....

Edit: Salting the Battlefield was slightly better...not much though.

Re: UK TV Programs
just noticed that Rev, is back for a 3rd series.
A couple episodes in...anyone caught it? We really liked the first couple of series but didn't have a clue it was coming back, so pretty pleased about that

Re: UK TV Programs
I only saw a few, either on a visit or when we paid for a VPN, but I enjoyed it.

Saw it.
Hope we get more than four episodes. You just start to get attached to the characters and then they disappear for a year. I'm watching Morse at the same time on the iplayer. They go together quite well.

Re: UK TV Programs
The Sweeney movie is available on Netflix streaming (Ray Winston is Jack Regan).

Re: UK TV Programs
A friend who is ordained in the CofE informed me only half jokingly that Rev. is not a sitcom, it's a fly on the wall documentary.
