Pan Am
Looks like it was made by some US TV network committee who thinks Mad Men won awards because of its suits and set design. But yeh watchable nonsense.
I watched about half an episode but I couldn't really get into it. Seemed to be lacking something.

Who was the French woman in the clip I saw? She was gorgeous.

They should fly them into a B&W kitchen sink Britain of the period for some botched backstreet abortions and drunken beatings from a bitter rugby league player.
