“It’s time you watched” with Screen Robot

Here’s another pair of my contributions to Screen Robot. Two pieces in their series ‘It’s Time You Watched…’ which argued the case of a television series you might have overlooked.

Secondly, the BBC’s Ashes to Ashes. Keeley Hawes and Philip Glenister shine in a portrayal of 1980’s policing in London. There’s also a Sci-Fi element as Hawes’ character is taken back in time, from her role as a detective in contemporary London, to the 80’s.
