The BBC (BBC 1) has acquired the forthcoming adaptation of Liane Moriarty’s best-selling novel, The Last Anniversary.

The six-part series -described as a comedy drama – stars Teresa Palmer, Miranda Richardson and Danielle Macdonald, with Helen Thomson, Susan Prior, Claude Scott-Mitchell, Charlie Garber, Uli Latukefu and Jeremy Lindsay Taylor.

The story is set on Scribbly Gum Island, a place of many secrets. The one that made it famous – the disappearance of a young couple decades ago – might have made the island a destination for true crime tourists, but when it comes to secrets, the three generations of women that call Scribbly Gum home, hold far more.

When Sophie Honeywell (Teresa Palmer) inherits a house on the island, left to her by her ex-boyfriend’s great-aunt Connie, it’s the fresh start she’s craving, despite the unwelcome reception she receives on arrival. Single and approaching 40, Sophie is intrigued by something else Connie left her - a promise that she might finally find the man of her dreams…

I'll be disappointed with how late I've come to the party with INDUSTRY. Suffice to say that anybody who has spent any amount of time working in The City will recognise all of the places and many of the characters. These are a good series (x3)
Series three not quite as brilliant as the first two so far, but fantastic TV.

I love a bit of TV. And the BBC still puts out brilliant programmes (and some shite, like all the others do too).

Was on a while ago but the documentary Hell Jumper is outstanding.
About a young bloke from Cornwall who goes to Ukraine to help out just after the Russian invasion and ends up doing rescue missions of Ukraine citizens in no man's land

Bath, Somerset.
Apologies if previously recommended upthread, but two excellent Welsh crime dramas, usually involving murder or abduction/kidnapping.

1) Set in bleak and remote countryside near Aberystwyth with surly/dodgy locals and their dark family secrets; slow-paced but still gripping and sometimes unnerving https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b03sgfbz/hinterland

2) On currently. Set in and around Pembroke Dock; a run-down town literally at the end of the (train) line in south-west. Wales. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p0jt33wx/cleddau

Also:








And my all-time favourite film! https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001t443/the-wicker-man
