Okay, I kid you not....

I'm watching it right now. It's based in London. It's a tad weird as the main guy even though he has done some 'real' acting was originally a comic....

It doesn't seem as clipped as the US ones, but is of the same franchise. Even had the 'dun dun' bit between scenes.

Just a couple of links, one with info, one with a review. Seems there's a US fan out there... GO UK!!

Oooo, I hope they start showing it over here! They could start by showing the two episodes that started from the same script, one from the original L&O Season 4 and the other from the UK version. Does the UK version feel more comfortable to you, sarry -- a more natural pace, places and behavior that you're more used to?

I didn't find it more comfortable no, in fact I didn't really watch it all the way through. It didn't seem as structured, or as serious for some reason. Places.. not really, I live quite a way off London so even though I have been there quite a few times all areas aren't 'familiar'. As we have such a lot of US shows on TV the behaviour on either show is neither more or less familiar if you get what I mean!!

James and i ran all over town looking for the drug cabinet i want as i found a beautifil one but 4 stores were out of it and we found a store that had it and had them put my name on it until we got there. so now all i need is a cabinet to put over the toliet. my bathroom looks so strange now as the walls don't have tile on them anymore. the vanity, sink, drug cabinet, soap cabinet over the toliet are all gone. i have a toliet and that's all looks real strange. the tub is in my back yard and tomorrow i plan to buy a bunch of bags of potting soil to fill it up and plant some tomatoes and stuff. it will be one heck of a pot. haha. well gotta go get some sleep. i am so tired been up since 5 am our time getting the cats in my bedroom with all their stuff. food, litter box and water tank..
