No-one has yet commented on the new series, so I will.
I'm enjoying it, last night's episode particularly.

I rarely watch repeats of a show, but I did with the repeats of this show
before the new series began; I like Sex and the City, but I don't watch the
repeats, only the new episodes.

So what do you people think of the new series?
I thought I'd miss Katrina, but to my surprise, I don't.
Will Archie & Lexie eventually get it on?

I think it's getting very silly.


You know it makes sense.

No spoilers for you, laddie!

I will merely say this... expect something you weren't expecting.

You're right. Shame really. It's become a caricature of its former self.

BTW, in the Foreign Correspondent story which looked at the real
Scottish aristocracy, they actually found a laird who looked just like
Hector! And the that the storyline about them going broke and getting
tourism/fishing to pay for the estate's running is based on fact.

Saturdays, 7.30pm, Channel 2.

Nevermind, the ABC will probably repeat the new series; it has now aired 3
episodes, but there are 8 more to go.

Damn! I knew that was the case in the back of my mind and flipped a
coin ;-)

In any case I am waiting for my local library to get the tapes in
cause my Channel 2 reception is crap.
