I've been away on a narrowboat for a week (pics to follow), so this is
rather a delayed reply.
I have to agree, Foyle's War is good. The length of the episodes allows
time for the story and characters to develop, and Michael Kitchen (Foyle)
is that rare beast on TV, an actor. His roles have ranged from a Maltese
pimp in "Minder" to Prince Charles.
And then, of course, there's his moll, the magnificently monikered
Honeysuckle Weeks, whose presence no doubt partly explains your enthusiasm
for the series, Frank. It certainly explains mine (partly), but then I'm
a sucker for "Jolly Hockeysticks" girls, like Jenny Agutter and Sylvia
Simms.

A complete non-sequitor here, but anyone reading this who lives in
Ontario, Canada, or who picks up the Ontario educational network TVO
on cable, tonight at 8pm (and the next couple of Sundays, I believe)
they're showing an episode of Foyle's War, an English series about a
police inspector during the early days of WWII. To my mind, it's just
about the best television drama that I've ever seen. Period.
If you can watch it tonight, you should. If you see a listing for in
your local TV guide in the future you should make a point of tuning
in.
cheers,
frank
