Unforgotten Season 6 Episode 2 Recap: friends in low places
Last time, we met our cast of possible murderers/witnesses for the season: Melinda, a journalist with a public persona that’s much more conservative than her real life thoughts; two young immigrants — Hassan, who’s just arrived in the UK, and Asif, who’s on the brink of taking his citizenship test; an autistic young man named Martin who lives at home with his elderly mother; and a harried mother/school teacher called Juliet who’s trying to manage her daughter Taylor’s reaction to Taylor's father’s death. And, speaking of: that body that our detective friends have been investigating? It’s the remains of said father/husband, Gerry. Also, as ever, Sunny and Jess have way too much drama going on in their personal lives, but that’s kinda par for the course, ya know? -
Unforgotten Season 6 Episode 1 Recap: Marsh Madness
After almost two years, we’re reuniting with our Unforgotten friends — new and old. Season six begins with our pal Sunny out at a semi-fancy restaurant. Before he can even order, he gets a call and you can guess the rest: there’s a body. It’s old (comparatively). He's got a case. -
Meet Damien Timmer, the EP behind many of your favorite MASTERPIECE and Brit Dramas
If you looked at the credits of MASTERPIECE’s World On Fire and the 2004 Agatha Christie’s Marple adaption, or BritBox’s new thriller Code of Silence, one name — and one UK production company — keeps popping up: Damien Timmer and Mammoth Screen. GBH Drama initially interviewed Damien Timmer to get a sneak peek at Towards Zero and MASTERPIECE’s upcoming new adaption of the J.G. Galsworthy’s Victorian epic The Forsytes novel, but we ended up with an in-depth look at how the process of bringing your favorite series to life has changed over the course of Timmer’s career. -
Love Patience’s positive disability representation? Try Code of Silence.
Patience — starring Ella Maisy Purvis — concluded its first season on PBS on Sunday with the title character facing the dual fears of anthrax exposure and the possibility of going on a first date. The good news for Patience fans is that UK Channel 4 has already given Season 2 the green light. The bad news is that it won’t premiere on PBS for at least a year. In the meantime, BritBox’s Code of Silence mixes some of the best elements of Patience with a hint of the thriller genre. -
Call the Midwife and Grantchester dive into race and dating
Cyril’s story on Call The Midwife shares some parallels with Alphy on Grantchester, even though the series is set a decade apart. Both are men in church leadership. They both have to consider their future wife’s role in their religious career. Neither can afford to have the public perception that they’re engaging in morally questionable behavior. Alphy has already had a scrape with a love interest who was involved in illegal and unethical activity. Cyril’s divorce shares a similar space, emphasizing the need to proceed with caution. But the clearest parallel is that both Cyril and Alphy pursue interracial relationships because they feel natural attraction and chemistry with women they’ve met by chance.
