Started season 1 last night turned it off after half an hour. Absolutely painful B-Movie level acting. Proper disappointment.

In completely unrelated news, there’s a marvellous scene in the remake of Brighton Rock where Pinky Brown exits the Regency Cafe in London SW1 (featured in the famous tea urn murder scene in Layer Cake) which is masquerading as a Brighton cafe, gets on his Vespa or Lambretta parked outside and rides one street straight onto Eastbourne seafront, which is masquerading as Brighton seafront.
:amex:

As you were.

That's why I have never bothered with the remake. Cant beat the original.

Looks like for the new episodes they will be based in Burgess Hill with the empty tall building by the centre being the police station, the back of one of the shops being Cleos mortuary and the empty Lidl store being used for other scenes.

Saw them filming near Hope Gap 2 weeks ago. I presume the caravan teeters/falls over the cliff it is nowhere near.

Just watched episode 2 and personally thought it was very good. Better than the first one in my opinion. Hopefully there will be many more to come.

Hope it airs soon in the UK:lol::lol:

Found it was originally aired (presumably in Australia) over six months ago, and also aired on Britbox on 4th May! Also found someone had uploaded it onto one of the popular mainstream video sites, split into two halves.

Why Blighty (apart from those half dozen people who have Britbox) have to wait so long for it is a mystery...still no confirmed UK air date.

Very strange indeed. It definitely only aired here in Oz just over a week ago and it’s not on (my) Britbox! Are there different versions of Britbox in different locations maybe?

Just watched the first and second episodes back to back. The second (Looking Good Dead) I thought was significantly better than the first, and Norman Potting (their one, not ours! :lol: ) was excellently cast and acted. Very enjoyable.

Saw the stage play of Looking Good Dead a week or so ago and it reminded us just how much they'd adapted it for the theatre. The TV version was much closer to the book (which I haven't read for ages).

Completely agree. I’m really looking forward to series 2.

Hopefully not as dreadful as the first one. But then I think the source material is dire. I was expecting Simm to be better though. The whole thing felt very cheap.
