Bit of a moan here concerning ITV and the wonderful programme schedulers that they have employed at that amateur organisation.
Due to a wonderful decision to start "Primeval" part 2 30 mins earlier than the previous Saturday I missed most of the 2nd episode. Now granted the programme is quite simplistic and very easy to pick up so, in the end, it didn't matter - but it's the principle that counts!
Primeval is silly but fun. The effects are quite good and the creatures which make-up the bad guys are different from the norm. The characters seem a bit one dimensional though so it will be interesting to see if they develop.
Foyle's War is also shown on ITV. Last week the first episode of series 4 was shown on Sunday at 9 p.m. This week it's disappeared altogether. When will it be back? Next Sunday and be shown fortnightly? Perhaps.
Compared to Primeval, Foyle' War is far more sophisticated. What I really enjoy about this programme is how they effectively re-create Britain in 1942, the use of events of the time as inspiration for the murder mysteries and, of course, Michael Kitchen as Foyle. He says more with one raised eyebrow than most of the characters say in a whole episode of Primeval.
I hope more episodes are shown soon.
