TV Series

I have not talked about movies and TV shows for quite a long time. Today I mention a few of the latter ones. We have watched a lot of various TV series, some of them were more, some less interesting.

Here is a portion of those we have finished viewing and which we liked because of various reasons.

Bomb Girls (2012/2014) - quite an interesting story portraying women working at a munition factory in Canada during WW2. The plot shows the main characters from their personal angles unraveling their problems and secrets.



Cadfael (1994/1998) - about a medieval monk (played by Derek Jacobi) detective.

 

Doctors at Large - just a light comedy (1971). The 25 minute episodes were quite convenient to watch when we needed a light theme break.

 

La Otra Mirada (A Different View), made 2018/2019 - set in Spain in the twenties of the 20th century. Quite an involving plot, drama and suspense with personal touch, regarding life stories/disturbances experienced by the series main characters. It is a pity no season 3 was made. By the way, the Spanish language (Castillan Spanish ?) spoken by the actors sounds very pretty.

 

Some History

The Aces' War  (2017/2019) - WW1 history - presents the most known European pilots of that time. Well made but lacks information regarding the non-European pilots and their achievements. Available on Roku TV.

War of 1812 (1919 production) -  quite informative, gives detailed information about the circumstances that led to the war, its main officers, battles, and timeline.

 Crime and Drama type show

Men with a Camera - ancient TV drama (1958) - young Charles Bronson plays the main character Mike, a photographer who uses the most modern technology of that time while solving crime-type puzzles.
