Looking for some new TV shows to watch on DVD? Why not try one of these British shows from "across the pond?"
- Last Tango in Halifax tells the story of childhood sweethearts Alan and Celia who re-connect after almost sixty years. But, the course of true love does not run smoothly, particularly when two somewhat dysfunctional families collide. This was an award winning series in Britain, and deservedly so. The acting and writing are excellent, with proper doses of both humor and drama.
Silk is a contemporary legal drama which follows the
passionate barrister Martha Costello as she pursues her "silk" (being
appointed to Queen's Counsel). For fans of
legal and courtroom drama.
- If you can't resist period costume drama, you'll enjoy The Paradise. Set amidst the Victorian splendor of Britain's first department store, the series follows Denise as she navigates her way through the power struggles, intrigues and affairs of the store's staff and mysterious owner.
- Last but not least, the UK's finest import, Doctor Who, comes out with the 50th anniversary special Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor on Dec. 10 (can you tell I'm a fan...?)
