The Doctor Blake Mysteries - new Aussie drama on BBC1 daytime
For fans of Australian TV, a new show comes to BBC1 on weekday afternoons at 2:15pm starting tomorrow Monday 18th November. Starring Craig McLachlan as a maverick country town doctor. First series is 10 episodes. Good to see some more Australian TV back on daytime TV!
As a fan of Australian TV, I'll be recording this onto my HDD to watch later at my convenience. |

Do you also watch Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries on Alibi??
![]() When I saw a picture of Craig McLachlan in my TV mag, in a pic of the main characters, I didn't recognise him! I never expected him to look like Henry, but it took a while to realise it was him! |

This and Cagney and Lacey. It has taken them a while to realise that getting rid of their imports was a bad idea. Just wish they would bring back All Saints. That was a brilliant show they treated miserably. I think I'll be checking this out. Thanks for the heads up.

I haven't seen Nadine Garner since she was Gloria in Class Act 20 years ago! Nice to see her again. I LOVED All Saints! Wish they hadn't stopped showing it. I taped most of the episodes they showed. Pity they didn't start it from the beginning. |

The Dr Blake Mysteries
I am watching this on iplayer, catch-up, and finding as a old fashioned police series set in Australia 50's it is not bad, and would have made a nice evening slot, instead of say New Tricks repeats, anyone else watching it.

This is poor isn't it, even for a day-time show?
It seems to have been shot through an empty aquarium where the green algae bloom needs cleaning from the glass. |

Sorry really liking this, and believe the film style matches the period.

Have watched a couple so far. I quite like it to be honest!
Nice 50's setting, good old-fashioned police/doctor looking into the murder of the day. Alcoholic Doctor and his unconventional home-life. Nice afternoon TV to me. Cannot believe that's Henry from Neighbours!! The name Craig Maclachlan rang a bell....but I didn't realise it was him. |
