Fair City 2016 - Disc 7

Midnight Sun (Midnatsoll)

Here's the latest in Nordic Noir thrillers. Unfortunately, I was put off by the very first scene that opens the series. Physically impossible. Don't Swedish writers know what happens to a helicopter with unbalanced rotor blades?

My Mother And Other Strangers + Rillington Place

Two new drama series.

My Mother And Other Strangers

I couldn't find any websites on this other than reviews of the previous night's episodes. Not sure why I would bother reading about something I've already watched. Doesn't make sense, but then that's the media for you. Here's the basic story line:

Drama series set in 1943 Northern Ireland following the Coyne family and their neighbors as they struggle to maintain a normal life after a US Army Air Force base is set up in the middle of their rural parish.

EastEnders 2016 - Disc 8

The Coroner - Disc 2

The Coroner returned for a second series.

The Coroner

I can also provide HD .mp4 files of The Coroner and .mkv files of Jack Taylor for those you just plugging-and-playing with your smart TV's. Only 9 of the files will fit onto a Coroner disc, but if you also got Jack Taylor the 10th file would fit on there. 

Jack Taylor - Disc 2

Jack Taylor returned with three more feature-length episodes. This is all very confusing. It's an Irish crime drama produced by a joint Irish/German team. It's takes place in Galway and is filmed there and in Germany. It stars a Scottish guy speaking with an Irish accent who spoke with an Aussie accent in Cleverman and the last episode has Laura Aikan using some sort of a pseudo-Texan accent (although I don't recall her ever saying "y'all" which really blew it for her). The show is made for TV3 but so far it's only aired on Channel 5 in the UK. Is this another New World Order ploy?

Andrew Sachs has died, but he will live on as a TV legend for many years to come for his role as Manuel in Fawlty Towers. He also starred in the early 90's comedy Every Silver Lining with Frances da la Tour.
