@greenpea  They are some of my favs. 💚💚💚👍👍👍

Re: Crime shows primarly British but not all talk space

@Maggie  Yes there is something about Brit crime shows they have a thing about them particularly the BBC ones I think. I must admit I am a sucker for the Agatha Christie Miss Marple movies too with Geraldine McEwan as Miss Marple. I love the fashions of that era.

Me too @greenpea  but I’d hate to have to wear them.

 

I like the face that it doesn’t go over the top with stuff, and you get to work some of it out yourself.

@Maggie  Me too I love trying to work it out but never can lol. Doesnt stop me from trying though 😄

@greenpea @Maggie I am a total UK crime junkie. I've done a Midsommer locations tour through Berkshire and Oxfordshire but Gently and Endeavour are my current favs, oh and Line of Duty and Banks ... Gosh so many!

Morning @greenpea 

 

I love my crime shows & movies, but they are the American ones. Although, I'm totally into Wentworth, which is an Aussie drama on Foxtel.


I did get into Silent Witness & Line of Duty at one stage though.

 

You all seem to highly recommend Midsomers Murders - maybe I should give it a go?!?

OMG! how fantastic I would love to go on a tour through the locations :D! I suppose it was so different from what you would think it looked like in rl 🙂

I will have to watch those. Are they on Netflix?

@WIP  Hey WIP I love my American crime and also Aussie crime (I can thoroughly recommend the series Blue Murder based on Roger Rogerson brilliant acting). Midsomer is lovely as it takes in the English countryside and characters plus it has the darker edge. Funny my son2 who watches it with me says to live in Midsomer you need a mastif for protection!:D
