John le Carre on the threat posed by secret services

[Tracy Riddle]

I recently saw the 2nd and 3rd films in the Worricker series. They were very good - intelligent and literate and well-acted. *Sigh* Why can't we have stuff like that on American TV?

I know that Turks & Caicos is available on XBMC, so check there. And blow me down, Page Eight is there too. ::thumbsup::

There are also some excellent European films/tv series with watching. Intelligent, well scripted, well shot and acted. The British series The Tunnel based on a Scandinavian TV series The Bridge (Broen) is well worth a watch too. In fact it's rare not to find what you're looking for is you conduct a diligent search. It's well worth getting to know, but as an amateur run thing, it doesn't have the smooth interface of normal TV broadcasters and, therefore, does take time to get to know how to use and access.

They were shown on my local PBS (public broadcasting) channel. Luckily the internet makes it easier to find stuff like this. I just wish Americans would make more quality movies and TV shows.
