Cult Labs - What TV Have You Seen?

Public Eye. The last series from 1975 (apparently).
I have no memory of this, merely picking it up as it was there more than anything. Alfred Burke plays Frank Marker, an "inquiry agent", who sets up in Chertsey after whatever happened to him at the end of the last series :laugh:. He gets the shit kicked out of him by Alan Lake to start with. Fascinating to see this really. It's so British it hurts. PI works out of an old motor shop? In the US this would be noir central, here it's just a bit seedy really. The antithesis of The Sweeney :nod:. From babysitting orchids to bomb threats (from that nice Jan Leeming!!), this isn't Marlowe territory at all.
Any fans here??

Whitechapel

Quite enjoying watched first series on Monday, series 2 yesterday , going start on 3rd today
A Sergeant and his team with Steve pemberton as an expert in historical homicides investigate modern day crimes (copycat killers etc ) that have happened in the past in the Whitechapel district of London.
Not everything plain sailing with a couple of small twist and turns .
So far what I've seen I'd recommend it .

It's great and captures the spirit of the films, can't wait for the second series. Good how there is no real good or bad guy, because at times they are both pricks, some ways Daniel more so, in some ways it's a role reversal till near the ed and then we have that cliffhanger so can see them teaming up at some point next season.

I watched it by other means , but I think you do need to pay or there might be a version with ads in it.

Netflix aren't half trying to push disenchantment, everything I seem to watch there it is at the end credits.
