Bodies (2004)
Another Series
There is another series coming of Bodies later this year I believe. i too wondered why it was on BBC2 and not BBC1 and apparently it's too graphic for BBC1. It is scary but it was indeed written by a real doctor, I read an interview and he said everything on there is true. I think the writing is brilliant and the acting is too. Especially Max Beesley. I haven't heard or read one criticism about this drama, its by far the best medical drama on TV because it is shot as though it's a documentary. And being written by someone actually in the profession makes it spot on. I would recommend this to anyone, except the squeamish - the prosthetics are superb.
La Femme Musketeer (2004)
Good family fun!
I watched this on TV at Christmas time and really enjoyed it. It's good family entertainment, thought the sword fights were great.
Really liked Susie Amy as Valentine, think she was good for the role, and Marcus Jean Pirae was good as well as Villeroi.
It wasn't brilliantly written, it was a bit 'storytelling' but the cast was great - Gerard Depardiu didn't do very much though - it seemed as though he was drunk from time to time!
The villages and the sets were beautiful and really perfect for the period. It was great to see Michael York back as D'Artagnan!
I would recommend this for adults and children, it's an adventure...
