The Fall Guy anyone?

Mancunian Ken, always a very big help in providing upgrades and rarities for all of you to enjoy, is trying to locate some Season 4 and 5 episodes of the 1980's USA show The Fall Guy. Anyone out there have it?

Rev.

The good news is the comedy Rev. returned for a third series. The bad news is this will probably be "it" for Rev., or at least as we know it. The good news is all 19 episodes fit onto a single disc with a whopping 2 MB to spare. The bad news is..........never mind...that's enough bad news. 
Yes, they sort of wrapped up the story this time around, but Tom Hollander has stated that he is open to Rev. returning some day in the future, but it's not going to be anytime soon and obviously it will be under quite different circumstances.

Jamaica Inn + New Worlds

Two new drama mini-series.

Jamaica Inn 

New Worlds

Being someone that has enjoyed several decades of having an interest in 17th century history, New Worlds kind of caught my eye, but I didn't make it past the opening title sequence of the first episode as what I read was about 95% BS, so I just assumed the rest of it was too.

Janet King

Janet King, played by Marta Dusseldorp, is a character in the Australian legal drama Crownies, which ended about 2½ years ago. Now that role has been spun off into a series of its own as Janet returns from maternity leave and continues her job as a prosecutor. Dusseldorp also appears in the Jack Irish films and had the starring role in last year's popular drama A Place to Call Home.

Shetland

WPC 56

I have a 2 TB hard drive on one of my PC's that contains nothing but totally f***** up files. There are hundreds of them that need to be somehow "fixed". These files have been sitting on that drive and were there this morning, but I spent too many hours on a beautiful day fixing them, which is really a waste of my time.....and sours my disposition.....as you can see.

W1A

One of the better comedies that a certain network has managed to air in the past few years has returned - sort of. Twenty Twelve was a mockumentary about the 2012 London Olympics. If you wondered what became of Ian Fletcher, Head of Deliverance (played by Hugh Bonneville) and Siobhan Sharpe, Head of Brand (played by Jessica Hynes) you can catch up with them in their new jobs as part of the "certain network" management team in the 4-part comedy W1A. David Tennant is still narrating and Jason Watkins (Trollied, etc.) has joined the cast.
