The Terror, Ridley Scott is the executive producer, has just started on BBC2.

Stars Ciaran Hinds, Jared Harris.

It's a double episode tonight (10 in total).

Just noticed there is a blu-ray thread for this: it's out in May.

Thanks for posting about this. I've been thinking about trying out the first episode or two. I've read about it in the TV listings magazine I get, as well as on Geektown. Sounds like it was shown on another channel here first, before the BBC airing it.

Apparently there has been a second season.

A short, second series of detective drama series McDonald & Dodds ended last night on ITV. Starting next Sunday night in it's place is the first of a new detective drama series called Grace.

However, checking McDonald & Dodds' EpGuides page, there is a third episode in it's second series.

Watching currently, three Canadian drama series, all equally very good. The intriguing one is Coroner. The first season premiered here on Universal TV (formerly Universal Channel), which closed down earlier last year. The show, along with various other series which Universal TV premiered in the UK (Chicago Med and Private Eyes), were picked up by Sky Witness. The current, third season is shown on Monday nights following the current season of Blue Bloods.

One of the things I found interesting about the first season of Coroner, was that in each episode there was at least one use of the 'f' word. This surprised (but didn't offend) me, because the show is shown in Canada on the same network as Murdoch Mysteries (which, in the episodes I've seen, doesn't have strong language in it). The second season though didn't have any strong language in it (maybe Sky Witness showed the versions with no strong language?), and so far, the third season hasn't had any strong language.

The lead actress in the series Coroner is easy on the eyes (Serinda Swan), playing an intelligent character.

Had hoped Coroner would get a Blu-ray release. In Germany, the first season of Private Eyes had a Blu-ray release. Oddly, the second season was released quickly after it, but on DVD only.
