Second Generation (2003)
Excellent
Loved this drama. Om Puri was wonderful as usual as was my favourite Amita Dhiri. Christopher Simpson is beautiful, just a pity that they couldnt actually get an Asian Actor to play his role instead as there are quite a few promising young Asians around.
Being April (2002)
BRILLIANT
Love this one. For a change its a true comedy drama. Pauline Quirke is her usually fantastic self. She gets better and better. My favourite actress Amita Dhiri is fab as the feisty Nikshita, some of those slapping moves on Sunil bring back memories of Millys big fight on TL.
All in all a great cast and a great show. The kids are excellent especially the youngster who plays Ty. Keep it up. Heres to series 2.
The Law (2000)
disappointing!
I,ve waited ages for ITV to show this drama, It stars two of my favourites, Amita Dhiri and Joe McFadden. An excellent cast included Douglas Hodge and Sharon Duce and I thought, yeh this may lead to a series.
No chance..It was squeezed into 90 mins (75 if you deduct adverts). Not enough time to set the scene, have an insight into the characters and therefore care about what happens to them.
The police work was dull, and McFaddens acting was I am ashamed to say wooden. Probably because he wasnt given enough to say.
Amita and Sharons roles were not big enough. This is supposed to be the UKs answer to Law and Order. The DAs office has a far larger slice in their one hour editions than the CPS in The Law.
All in all, this could have been good. Extended to three hours, not rushed plots could have seen a new law series.
What a shame.
Dalziel and Pascoe: A Sweeter Lazarus (2000)
Brilliant as usual
I love Dalziel and Pascoe, Warren Clarke is a favourite of mine but I mainly tuned in to this episode cos my fave actress Amita Dhiri is in it. She was excellant as a Lancashire lass working with the working class Yorkshireman Dalziel.
Nice to see Nicola Walker, once again she was brilliant.
I wish they'd invite DC Kendall back to work with them again, maybe when Novello's on leave.
24 Hours in London (2000)
loved it
I cant make up my mind whether this film was supposed to be a comedy or a serious gangster movie, but whatever it was supposed to be I loved it. I'm a huge Amita Dhiri fan so I couldnt wait to see it.
Gary Olsen was great, as usual, just a shame it was his last big role. RIP Gary
