Bancroft
Itv's cop 3-parter over new year. Sarah Parrish's ruthless killer senior policewoman. Not bad, decent pace albeit ludicrously far-fetched but entertaining.

Nah not possible.
Im not prickly enough. Now "back the f*** off". Ha ha.
Tbh the 60s pt2 was the key episode for me, i wanted to see how and if they covered Barry, Morricone, Jarre, Jones etc.
Given the subject matter i think its fair to discuss it on here.
The first quarter of prog was about morricone n Leone and the evolvement of the dollars music. They even mentioned Alessandroni's whistling and cantori moderni so not bad.
Then they did another quarter on Barry n Bond. And Ipcress.
EDIT
They also covered Goldsmith, a mini bio then Dr kildare man from uncle and Planet of the apes. A brief divert to quincy jones and In the heat of the night and then, shocker, opening to Where eagles dare - altho im sure narrator calls him Rod Goodwin!!! Then onto Jarre and Lean and Aurens. And Lara's theme. And back to Ennio and ouatitw. Rounding off with Barry and midnight cowboy.
But no one else seems to be watching it? TG? Thomas?
Interesting for me was they showed 60s sidewalk footage with cinema hoardings saying DEATH RIDES A HORSE and 1000 PLANE RAID, WINNING, THIS SAVAGE LAND, SIGN OF THE GLADIATOR.

I've still only watched the first episode Bill and yet to watch any of the others, though I have the series recorded. As I said to you before, I wasn't fussed on listening to the same old talking heads blather on, but I'll get round to it at some stage.

I'm the same as Thomas.
Got them all taped, but only watched the first two (the 30's and 40's).
It's okay, but a bit vanilla and the talking heads are like politicians, statin' the bleedin' obvious and just telling us what we already know.

Im not disputing that such programmes are the same dreary 4 or 5 talking heads doing a "Garth Crooks"...droning on about the obvious but delivering it like their "insight" is golddust. So far, this series has been much the same but is reasonably competent. Someone in the research team has told them all what to say!

Dublin murders wasnt bad albeit a bit far-fetched - the whole undercover in the house got a bit messy and the lookalike she invented wasnt fully explained.
Line of duty has always been decent. See if you can get s2 of Bancroft, Joan, that was quite good with a twist of sorts too.
