Watching a British television series always gives my American brain a workout. And watching The Last Tango in Halifax is no exception. Besides having to listen carefully through the accents, last night I had to muddle through the disfunctional families.
Will I continue watching this series? Maybe. From 7:00-8:00 pm the temps are too hot to do anything else but watch tv in the cool study, so I guess I will watch the rest of the season.
I began watching this series smack dab in the middle. Season 2 # 2!!!!

But nothing beats Doc Martin or Keeping Up Appearances !

We watched a few episodes of LTIH but kind of gave it up - can't remember now just why. We LOVE "Doc Martin" and "Keeping Up Appearances"! And our favourite British series of all is/was "Yes, Minister" (which became "Yes, Prime Minister"). Have you seen "Miranda" (available on Hulu)? It's hilarious.
Never too late to watch something new!...:)JP
Willy Dunne Wooters and I adore Last Tango In Halifax. You need to watch it from the very beginning--season one, episode one--to appreciate it. The first season is available on DVD or Netflix Streaming. Willy Dunne Wooters thinks the romance between Alan and Celia is similar to our romance, which gives me tingly, loving shivers of joy.
Love,
Janie
I have not heard of this program but will look it up on Netflix and on my television guide. I use to love Doc Martin but have grown weary watching the show and have stopped tuning in.
