Just started re-watching the first series of the superb 'Bodies' on DVD, with a wonderful cast including Max Beesley, Patrick Baladi and Keith Allen.

People bark on about how we can't do anything like The Wire or Sopranos or whatever on UK TV, but this is easily up there with all those. I wonder how many people remember it?

Generally whenever there is something really really good on, it's treated as some kind of minority viewing. Mad Men is a good example of this. Won the Bafta for best international award (over The Wire), absolutely superb drama, but I can't help think that because it's shown on BBC Four and then late on BBC2 that the larger audience think it is somehow going to exlude them. Which is a shame. It's just bloody good drama.

Bodies was a great show!!

Yaaaay! There's the audience! Do you know anybody else who saw it or was it just us?!

Um....

Just us I think. :/

Actually I'm sure there was one other person on here who liked it.
So that's 3!

Love Actually... but just for half an hour then I'm going to bed.

Me too. It's a sad bit now though. :(

I like the Colin Firth/foreign girl bits.

I like the bit at the end when the whole town ends up following him to propose.

"He is going to kill Aurellia."

Hee. Yes.
Aw, I like Richard Curtis films. Curse my oestrogen.
