Also David Suchet as Hercule Poirot. There are so many episodes of HP that one could take acres of afternoon in conquering them. But of course, all of these must be a given, and I am just now joining this forum. How I love British Telly !! |

Chris Gregory Posts: 19 Joined: 2nd May 2012 Location: USA | quotePosted at 01:59 on 3rd May 2012 Foyle's War is also on You Tube. I happen to like repeats, on the whole, as i can study scenes again to capture nuances missed the first time (it only works will great scripts and acting) An acquaintance here in Fla does not understand that I can see a film or TV program several times over and not be bored. This person is a sports fan and insists that watching sports is the thing to do - no repeats = it is always a new performance/game never before seen and never again reproduced in just the same way. |

Chris Gregory Posts: 19 Joined: 2nd May 2012 Location: USA | quotePosted at 14:37 on 18th May 2012 Midsomer Murders are a new interest, but I have to say that H. Poirot and Miss Marple are still my all time favorites. Helen Mirran as DCI Tennison is tops on my list too. Why is it that the Brits have so many detective/murder themes ? No complaints here, and I prefer them to our vapid 'reality shows' in the US anytime. |
