Series 1 [2 x DVDs]

A senior police officer in 2006 Manchester is involved in a serious road accident, and he wakes up in 1973, with all the naff fashion, furniture and TV of the era. Is he dead, in a coma?

This is one series you don't want to miss. I don't do hype on here.

Ashes To Ashes - Series 1

Is it a follow up or a spin off of Life On Mars? Only Gene, Ray and Chris remain in this; set in London.

A female characters replaces Sam but she has a connection - she read his reports so is part of the same plot. The year is now 1981.

The Yellow House [More info here]

About the relationship between Van Gogh & Gaugain.

Very well written, acted and filmed. The research that has gone into it seems considerable, and then used in an intelligent way to produce a superb piece of drama.
