If you have yet to see any of Sir David Attenborough's nature collections, then you have missed some of the rarest glimpses into our world's environments. There is a very obvious reason that this Natural Sciences academic from Cambridge is world-renowned: He is one of the world's foremost experts in his field.

If you are looking for a funny (television) mystery series… then you might enjoy the Jonathan Creek Mystery Series. The first three seasons of this series are some of the most entertaining mystery shows that my family has "accidentally" found. This entry is about just the first three seasons of the show. They were a delight to watch.
I think that I mentioned before that we have all of the Bramwell DVDs… And, since we do, we are able to take our time watching them. I thought that I had seen the entire series when it first aired on PBS… Now that I have just finished re-watching the entire series, I find that I hadn't actually seen the last (fourth) season.
Wow! I just finished re-watching The Six Wives of Henry VIII, and I am left flabbergasted! I loved this miniseries, and am so glad I was able to "get past" some reviewers' ideas. I remembered the series as being luxurious and beautiful, and I think that I enjoyed it even more now than I did the last time I watched it. Be forewarned though… this is another series that I have written about that is not a mystery, but it is such a wonderful BBC production that I felt I would be remiss to not write about it.

Ordinarily, you probably don't think of Miss Marple as funny. That will change if you are able to see Margaret Rutherford's portrayal of Miss Marple. You will most likely by tempted to think of her as "Jane" instead of "Miss Marple."
The To Serve Them All My Days miniseries is based on the novel (of the same name) by R. F. Delderfield. I admit to not having read the novel, but I have seen the miniseries… and I love it! It is not a mystery, but it does stand up to its BBC counterparts in that it is an extremely good production. The thirteen segment series was produced in 1980 and is set during the time between World War I and WW II.

I love BBC mysteries and I am trying to find shows with a Christmas Theme. I already watched Hercule Poirot's Christmas and loved it. I am looking for more, any BBC mystery with a Christmas theme would be welcome this season. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you Walter
