Television is back! In a big way! Easter brings some of the most exciting returns to screens in a while. Not only are we going to be treated to a brand new series of my favourite show on TV (visit The Leadworth Green for more on THAT) but we also get a new series, the final series, of time twisting pseudo 80s cop drama comedy 'Ashes To Ashes'.
Gene, Alex and the team are back and are promising to give us answers to those big questions that have been puzzling us since Gene first strolled into Sam Tyler's life grumbling about "'oops!", seems like so long ago, doesn't it?! 'Ashes To Ashes' starts on Friday 2nd April at 9pm on BBC One. And I cannot bloody wait! But wait we must, because... well, we aren't time travellers. Are we? Are we?! And if that doesn't tickle your fancy then how about this...
Curly haired, duffel-coated Doctor-Who-should-be sleuth Jonathan Creek returns on Easter Sunday, again on BBC One at 8pm in 'The Judas Tree' - a one off special co-starring Sheridan Smith as Joey Ross and none other than the Eighth Doc- um, I mean, "I" from 'Withnail & I' himself, Paul McGann as crime writer Hugo Dore.
And as always, we're sure to be left guessing (wrongly) all the way through until Mr Smartypants decides he wants to let us all know "how it was done". I'll be watching. Because I always have. So there. And it's got Sheridan Smith in it. And she's awesome. So if you have never seen this show before, firstly - how the hell not? And secondly, WATCH THIS ONE. The bad thing is that if you don't have Sky+ or a video recorder then by watching this you're going to miss the majority of the last part of Professor Brian Cox's fantastically enthusiastic and informative documentary series "Wonders Of The Solar System", this week all about aliens. Well, about the possibility of them. Again, if you haven't seen this series then shame on you, buy the DVD!
And the near future is spattered with lovely TV goodies other than those I've mentioned. You can catch the second part of the first season of Flashforward (Five) or the sci fi brilliance of Caprica (Sky1). Or one of a hundred other great TV gems on their way to us this Summer.
And also, let me know what YOU'VE been watching by commenting below. I welcome any and all comments you care to send. I've been waiting ages for someone to really slag a show off... So... you know...
