Love, love this show. Love everything about it. The two stars work so well. So nice to see a show with older persons as the lead. It's not an edge of your seat nail biting crimes show. It's gentle with a little humour. The other star of the show is the scenery. Absolutely stunning. Australia and New Zealand have been producing some excellent shows these days. This is a show that can run quite a number of seasons without getting stale. I hope with all my heart that this show keeps going. I waited impatiently each week for the next episode and now I'll have to wait impatiently for the next season.
I have just finished watching Pie in the Sky. I remember I watched it when it was first in TV. Loved it then and I loved it now. Must admit it wasn't easy watching a television show from 30 years ago. Obviously quality and technology has vastly improved. There were times it sounded like they were talking in a barn. Once I got used to it, it was pure joy for 5 seasons. I only wish it could have been more. The storylines were simple and there was no gratuitous violence and no foul language...what a breath of fresh air. I loved all of the characters in the show with the exception of fisher. He irritated me from the first episode to the last. RIP Richard Griffith, you were wonderful. I also had fun looking up the actors on IMDB those who's faces were familiar.
I came upon this by accident. Not normally something I watch. I think I was intrigued by the Bahamas, one of my favourite places. This was a feat to behold. So incredible how they did it, some mistakes were made and cost a small fortune to rectify. A hurricane that swept through. The attention to detail was incredible, the machines were unreal. Everyone had their specific job and they excelled at it. In the city where I live, they have been replacing a bridge, not a big bridge. One just spanning a narrow river and it has taken them at least three years and they are still not finished. I seriously want to go and say to the powers that be, watch this documentary and see how it's done!!!
