Broadchurch - now that's more like a drama

Gosh I didn't realise that Pauline Quirke was in it.

Lots of possible suspect, lots of other things going on. The review on Digital Spy is really worth reading

Enjoyed this much more than Mayday.

I enjoyed this very much a promising start Olivia Coleman and David Tennant make a very good pairing. Have watched Mayday twice now, find it quite irritating, even though it has Lesley Manville in it who I think is a very good actress. Might stick with it a bit longer though as I have only just found out that it's filmed in and around Dorking which is fairly nearby so want to see if I can recognise anywhere even though the story isn't grabbing me. The Killing was spun out over quite a number of weeks if I remember correctly and that didn't seem too long.

Really enjoyed it too. Beautiful scenery. During adverts I flicked over to Mayday, but still not grabbing me, so I haven't bothered to record it.

...I agree, Mishap The first episode was deserving of the title - drama

and much of the filming was at Clevedon-about 7 miles from here on coast of N.Somerset

Good stuff great acting, lots of believable characters, enough skeletons in cupboards to keep you wondering. I shall definitely stick to it.

I've set my box to record all episodes. Anything with David Tennant in it has a head start as far as I'm concerned.

Good drama, well acted, but agree that 8 weeks does require some commitment!

8 weeks though????? I can't understand why they are stringing it out over 8 weeks. No doubt by week 6 every episode will be half taken up with the catch up of the pervious episodes.

Excellent! Looking forward to next week's ep.

Ooops!

Or even a 'passing' resemblance!

I enjoyed it too, although was suddenyl struck by the though that the female detective bore more than a pssing resemblance to Frances De La Tour.

Ooh! Too British!

I watched it and I'll stick with it, although it all seemed very British - I think I have been watching too much Nordic noir!

It's got the makings of a great drama serial. Really interesting.

It also had some subtlety - the morgue scene was handled well and tastefully.

It is good to see some real acting. The little boy Tom at the end was excellent.

Agreed !Thoroughly enjoyed it.I became totally engrossed .Can't wait for the next episode.

Hear, hear Mishap - intriguing and engrossing.
