I watched that a bit back. It is good, yes - there's a nice seedy London atmosphere about it. They do manage to get round the place awfully quickly though.

I also like the interviews they do with relatives of late actors. Peter Butterworth's family were on last night.

Anyone watching Shetland? I'm suspicious of Perez's new girlfriend. This is written by the same author as Vera and her leading characters don't have domestic bliss

A great drama with spectacular scenery. It is good even though the storyline is a little improbable. I bet on a n island like Shetland if a sparrow farts all the residents would know it, and the idea that nobody would notice some foreign girls including a black one would go unnoticed is to me a bit unlikely

I know someone who lives there and they say many cruise ships dock for the day and the islands are overrun with tourists.

I saw part of an interview with John Gregson's wife.She said he was always cracking jokes and was a great family man. That's nice to know. So many film stars these days ,are so vain they can't resist having affairs.
