Re: Does anyone here watch BRITBOX ?

@Drythe Yes we loved New Tricks and watched all the seasons.  Brian was adorable.  Were sad to finish that one too.  We got interested with Midsomer Murders and went nuts from there.

Watched all of Midsommer too.  I rewatch them though.  There is over 23 years of episodes, so it is an undertaking that is fun!  However, for some reason they stopped production abruptly.  Covid?   When the original lead  actor quit it was taken over by a new guy...who is very good.  But  episodes were reduced.  British TV is different that here.  Midsommer murders was aired  9 times a year, then 6, then 4.  Very few of the shows air weekly.  They tend to alternate Shows I hear.

Oh and don't forget Line of Duty!!  Really excellent.  And did you watch The Fall??  Totally gripping and so hard to believe that Jamie Dornan is the same actor from Shades of Gray.  Such amazing tv.

If you're looking a light hearted mystery let me add Death in Paradise to the list.

Re: Does anyone here watch BRITBOX ?

We have Britbox and Acorn. If I had to choose just one it would be Britbox as they seem to have more content. We love all the mysteries and especially loved the comedies "One Foot in the Grave"  and "Waiting for God"  Taggart is very good but it took us a few episodes to understand the accent on that one. With the exception of news and sports all we watch is British tv,
