You talking about the ITV series from 30 years ago?

I had no idea they'd done this. I still remember the original version from the 60s.
Bugger off.

Re: Now Watching on TV
I was looking forward to this when I saw the trailer.
A murder mystery set in post war Germany.
The period detail looks great and the sets & CGI recreation of 1946 bombed out Berlin are believable. However bits of the plot are unbelievable and kind-of let the whole piece down.
7/10 on Netflix now.

Think it's worth an 8/10. Well worth watching

Re: Now Watching on TV
"Trending now on Netflix" it says. I never know whether that's good or bad but this series is worth your time.
On the surface it's a murder mystery with clues unfolding as we jump backwards and forwards in time, but what makes this different is that every episode is taken from the point of view of a different person involved.
While that's not a particularly new technique (Band of Brothers did something similar) but it does make it pretty engaging following the interweaving characters and plot line.
We're only about half way through but it's up there with some of the best TV from this year.
Clickbait now on Netflix

Re: Now Watching on TV
The new BBC1 Sunday series of Call The Midwife never shies away from what really goes on behind the closed doors of ostensibly happy family homes but it's been a while since any British TV programme has depicted prolonged domestic violence where the perpetrator is female.
Crucial viewing. See it on BBC IPlayer
