Anyone else watching this, on Drama, 8.00pm on Thursday night?

Starring Greta Scaatchi and Bryan Brown.

Bit of a cross between Miss Marple and Rosemary and Thyme.

Gorgeous Australian scenery though.

Always had a soft spot for Bryan Brown, since tv versions of A Town Like Alice and The Thornbirds.

Our TV is playing up. It would.

The picture is fragmenting but I can recognise the scenery, we spent a holiday up there! 🙂

Deedaa

I watched one episode, but it was very depressing seeing Bryan Brown looking so old. I always think of him as that dashing young Australian!

Nah, he just looks.... experienced :-)

I couldn’t remember how the last series ended, but it sort of came back to me throughout the programme.

They always seem to land on their feet, finding a welcoming place to stay, with beautiful scenery, and lovely food and wine served.

Plus they are then able to sort out their hosts problems within a day or two of meeting them.

Leaving D&J off to pursue their own investigations.

Easy watching.
