Between The Lines

[Tyre Tread]

Just before Christmas Mrs TT and I were discussing series of programmes that we wished were repeated and we both mentioned Between the Lines at the same time.

I Bought here series one for Christmas and we enjoyed them so much I have bought 2 and 3.

I had forgotten just how good the plot lines were and that there was rarely a satisfactory ending.

Cracking series. Puts spooks in the shade, a case of acting where less is more, few and far between these days.

I guess it's what people's limited attention can deal with in some ways, few have the attention span for the original TTSP.

This might be right up your street, remember The Justice Game with Dennis Lawson?

I always remember James Cosmo's role as the menacing guy in the Black Saab 900.

Yep, watched Between The Lines many years ago. Entertaining police series.

I recall back then some of the press nicknamed it "Between The Sheets".

I really enjoyed Between the Lines - the first two series, anyway, while they were all still in CIB.

It went a bit daft in the third series when Tony and Harry jumped before they were pushed and went freelance.

Whatever else he has been in, Neil Pearson will for me always be Det Supt Tony Clark. Or the bloke from Drop the Dead Donkey, at a push.
