Memorable, crazy movie
A Major Disappointment
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
View MorePlease can the BBC tell us when season 4 is coming to our screens?This show BELONGS up there with all the other top BBC drama's Holby City, Casualty, Bergerac (when it was around) Happy Valley, Call the Midwife and many others that stand out for me and a lot of other viewers! Why has it not been brought to evening slots? of course we have the advantage of iplayer and catch up, but it's good enough, if not BETTER than some of the programs I have just mentioned above! Why tease us with a re run and not give us any more? Season 3 just got better! and so doesn't make sense to not have a new and/or continuing series! It's the BEST police program on tele right now! and as it's a different era, makes it more appealing.10/10 for me!
View MoreI watched season 1 and 2 and thought they were OK but felt that season 3 was the best!All the actors in the new or latest season are really excellent! And the story-lines better than before. I would TOTALLY disagree with a couple of comments who say the writing is bad etc. This is totally untrue, maybe in S1 & S2 the story lines weren't as strong as in S3, this I would agree with. The strength in S3 far beats the other seasons, far superior in acting overall I would say.I much prefer Annie Taylor's character to Gina Dawson's! It really brought the to life!Enjoying the repeats
View MoreJennie Jacques portrays all the ambitions, fears & acceptances of young women in 1956 England. I let myself go when watching the case solving, but I forget the plot when the camera is focused on her. I literally have to shake my head at times to follow the story.I really like the scenes where she's not on camera. But from the first 5 minutes of episode one, she's the portrayed character I want to see next.Not her fault, but Jennie Jacques' eyes are too magnetic. That said, the little known supporting cast are drawn from the deep well of British acting talent. This was Britain in 1956.That I found Jennie Jacques' beauty distracting should not deter others from giving this a first viewing. She did what the writers & director dictated, & her performance is worthy of high praise.I mark this down because of formulaic writing, but I mark it up because of the ensemble performances. This is series worthy of watching.
View MoreThe beautiful Jennie Jacques plays the lead role of WPC Gina Dawson. Although the series revolves around her there are many intelligently woven threads in the plot that give all the other players a good chunk of airtime, too. None of them disappoint, either. Things wind up nicely after five episodes but there's still a little wriggle room for another series and I, for one, hope that their is.After all the time and trouble that the producers, cast and crew went to, to get this right I'm surprised that this was aired just after lunch during the week where probably not many people got the chance to see it. That was an extremely irresponsible decision by the faceless suits at the beeb who think they know something about television.The story is well paced and intelligently laid out. The details, language and props were first rate and appropriate. The cast, photography and script were also all top notch. This is intelligent television drama... something the Americans are becoming good at and which we Brits have rather lost our way on.Much, much better than that dreadful garbage, Prime suspect.
