Really enjoying my first watch of #Atonement 🎬. If you've skipped it, it's essentially a film about posh English folks with a penchant for the word "cunt." A must-watch! #CinemaLove #BritishDrama #FirstTimeViewing

When I finished sewing I hopped back to #welcometosamdalri where of course there's trauma like #RainDogs - it's just a happier sort of trauma #kdrama #BritishDrama

For research purposes I picked BBC drama #RainDogs to listen to background music! Well... Firstly there was a lack of dramas on BBC that weren't crime or period drama. This is a gritty raw watch, not sure I was having much fun. But , yes it did have a dedicated soundtrack ( Google linked it to a YouTube video) but also heavily sprinkled with existing music ( new & old) #DaisyMayCooper #BritishDrama vs #kdrama #OST

I'm looking forward with some trepidation to Amazon Prime's new #TvShow series #ThreePines starting to air in December #ThreePinesOnPrime. Although I usually watch #BritishDrama , I'm a big fan of #LouisePenny & I've read all her #InspectorGamache mysteries. Inspector Gamache is such an interesting character & it's nice to read a #mystery with a #Canadian setting. I hope it will be well written, a friend warned me about a previous adaptation. Bad #screenwriting can ruin a show even with good actors.) Apparently it's the same production company as The Crown and #AlfredMolina is the lead. (He's British so probably hopefully he'll do a convincing Quebecois accent.) The rest of the cast seem to be Canadian (English, French and indigenous - the only other cast member I recognize is #TantooCardinal. )

My husband & I have just finished watching the first series of #MrSelfridge, an older #BritishDrama from a few years ago. It has a bit of a different feel to it as it's set in a department store rather than a stately home, police station, courtroom or a quiet village. We're alternating it with series 2 of #TheBridge, a seminal Swedish/Danish dark #CrimeDrama. (The streaming service that carries it locally only allow 8 episodes per month (it has 10 episodes) so we have to watch at the end of one month & start of another.)

Are there any fans of #BritishDrama here? I'm interested in chatting. I'm a big fan. I enjoy the writing, characters and acting. Some of my favourite older #TV shows are #Broadchurch, #LifeonMars and more recently #Endeavour, #Shetland, #Sherwood, #KarenPirie, #LineofDuty and #Manhunt. I don't just like #CrimeDramas, I also enjoy #HistoricalDramas like #Belgravia and most adaptations of #JaneAusten and others. I also like #ScienceFiction and #Fantasy adaptations like #Sandman, #GoodOmens and #doctorwho (my favourite doctor being #DavidTennant).
