Darby and Joan was brilliant I enjoyed it hope there is another.

I've promised her I will watch it!

I couldn't get into Darby and Joan, or the Newsreader!

TryThe Newsreader again - when I got into it I binged it and really enjoyed it

Anyone watchEd High Country yet? On BBC have it recorded

Have you watched it? I tried the first episode but found it a bit slow tbh. Worth persisting?
Interested to see Caroline from A Place to Call Home in it (I loved APTCH and got mildly obsessed a couple of years ago ).

 

[EllieG83]

Oh I loved the Secret life of us but feel like I’ve watched them twice over. First few seasons were definitely the best

I love A Place To Call Home one of my all time Favourite shows need to find time to watch it again, but that much sport on I don’t get a chance.

It used to be on UK TV PLAY but they removed it awhile ago. That's another one that I watched 2 seasons of & never finished it

Well worth trying again omo

I love it so much. The storylines, characters, settings, costumes - all amazing. If they showed it prime time in the UK it would have done really well here. Plus an excellent villain in Regina.
I was bereft when they showed the very last episode and it was obvious there wouldn't be another series.
Hard recommend for anyone who hasn't seen it.

 

[Miss Ophelia]

Plus an excellent villain in Regina.

Yes wasn’t she great.

 

[Jelly Bean]

Yes wasn’t she great.

The actress is lovely too. I wrote something on twitter ages ago about the show and she responded very kindly.
(It was a one off tweet - I wasn't *that* obsessed. She lied).

I had to just Google but Regina was played by Jenni Baird. Noni played the Bligh matriarch Elizabeth. Did she do Australian playschool?
(Think I might have to get the dvd boxset now).

Ah Jack. He was lovely. He's married to his APTCH wife in real life.

Awwww cute, I didn't know that!

 

[Miss Ophelia]

They are divorced now but they sure made a lovely couple.

I didn’t think I’d like the Netflix version of Heartbreak High because I was such a fan of the original but I love it

 

[EllieG83]

I love the new Heartbreak high, I thought the same as I loved the old one so much too. The people they’ve got in it are great actors and they do new modern day issues so well and what people are going through now at that age.
