I've started watching The Frankenstein Chronicles which is set around 1827 when Sir Robert Peel was Home Secretary in the UK and was trying to pass The Anatomy Act.

Sean Bean plays the lead, of cop John Marlott, who is tasked with finding who is responsible for corpses that are being washed up and are made up of various body parts stitched together :shock:

I notice that both Frankenstein Chronicles (Series 2, I think) and Walking Dead are on Foxtel. I have never watched them though. Maybe I should, just to see what they are all about. :mrgreen:

Had a quick look ... not my sort of thing. I see that Our ABC has something called "Innocent" on next Saturday at 8.30. It is a mini-series with Lee Ingleby (was in George Gently). I've booked it to record. :mrgreen:

I don't watch ABC either but I do check their 8.30 slots on Friday and Saturday ... sometimes they have something made by the BBC that is interesting.

I loved Justified and I have watched it all from beginning to end. If you liked Justified you might like Banshee.
