The second series of the 1980s situation comedy starring Peter Tilbury as a man suffering a particularly severe midlife crisis. To say Philip Roath (Tilbury) is unsatisfied with his life is an understatement. Divorced, stuck in a dead-end job, losing his hair, all Philip really wants to do these days is complain. He moans to his colleagues so much that his boss (Christopher Benjamin) becomes convinced that he does almost nothing else at work. Out of hours, Philip likes to complain as well. Unfortunately, his psychiatrist, Simon (Nicholas Le Prevost), clearly has even more issues than he does. The episodes are: 'Aren't Our Policemen Wonderful', 'At First the Infant', 'Night and Day', 'Listening in', 'Personnel', 'Pros and Cons' and 'Scenes from Country Life'.
Martin Shaw stars as P.D. James's detective Adam Dalgliesh in these adaptations of her popular crime novels. In 'Death in Holy Orders', Dalgliesh returns to St Anselm's, the theological college he attended in his youth, where a rash of brutal murders forces him to confront old memories. In 'The Murder Room', Dalgliesh traces the clues in a murder all the way to the House of Lords.
Tense, disturbing drama starring Penelope Wilton. Facing imminent forced retirement, Jean (Wilton), a house-sitter on her final job in a beautiful country house, begins to live in the place as though she owns it. When fate brings two strangers to the house - Michael (Daniel Mays), a petty thief, and Steph (Sinead Matthews), a pregnant girl on the run from her abusive boyfriend - Jean discovers the family she has always wanted. Inevitably the past starts catching up with them, threatening to destroy the delusional yet idyllic, isolated life they have created.
Drama following the burgeoning relationship of two people who have suffered family tragedies. When Jake (Dan Fredenburgh) returns home after the death of his father, he strikes up an immediate friendship with B (Doraly Rosa). B also has a family catastrophe to deal with - her husband, Chester (Paul Bettany), has suffered a stroke and, though still alive, will most likely be crippled for life. Further complicating matters, Jake is engaged to the enthusiastic but preoccupied Zoe (Olivia Williams). As Jake and B become closer, the two couples face tough decisions about their future and struggle to find a balance between their own desires and the reluctance to hold back or harm a loved one.
