Anybody been watching the new drama 'The Fall' on BBC? Really enjoying it so far, intriguing in that the murder is revealed very early on in the first of 5 episodes and you see him in his every day life (job/family etc).

Excellent.

Think we will see a lot of copycats in regard to this style. Giving as much screen time to the killer as the cop bringing them to justice. Also feel there is a bit of mystery here with the 'Monroes' think there is an underlying plot there.

Great stuff.

thought it might be to do with legendary Mancunian drunk Mark E Smith's enduring beat combo & their new album "Re Mit" - oops

A very good watch and well written plot, Gillian Anderson is still easy on the eye.

I wasnt impressed. Styling and pace shamelessly stolen from The Killing, and i just thought they spent lots of energy slapping on the sexual violence with a trowel without any decent character development. Andersons acting is by far the best thing about it.

The producers missed a trick in naming it; set in Belfast with her from the X Files, it had to be called "Andersonstown"

I watched the film Shadow Dancer last night also set in Belfast. It was BBC produced. They must have got a job lot on the cast. Half of them were in The Fall.

Shocker! BBC use NI actors for Belfast set drama.

And Gillian Anderson! Might as well get their money's worth.
