Universe (2021)
It's an introduction to the universe
It's an introduction to the universe , not an in-depth physics program ( that would leave 90% of us behind) therefore it's narration is aiming at the curious and not the A level physics student. The graphics are amazing and give an impression of what it really would look like "out there". Personally it's inspiring to see what is out there and it has made me want to learn more, perhaps with the open university.
Agree it's a slow paced series but I found it allowed time to think and wonder and gradually realise that we really are on a rock floating in a dark void around a star, makes you think doesn't it !!
His Dark Materials (2019)
Excellent and captivating
Talented actors, the most realistic animal CGI I have ever seen, intriguing story and stunning scenery. This high quality drama production ticks many boxes. I'm on season 1 fifth episode and cannot stop watching this.
Being British I guess I'm biased in admiring the talent in this show, and particularly of the diversity of these actors. UK has brilliant talent of all backgrounds and as such it's great seeing it being used in a quality, well written drama.
There is no point in my writing what the story is all about as it's been written many times in these reviews but what I will say is give it a go, persevere if it's culturally different to your usual fantasy dramas and become enthralled with this wonderful production.
The Last Kingdom (2015)
Brilliant series
Great actors, intriguing story line, realistic scenery can't wait for season 5. But please lose the electronic music . Dialogue and acting skills are all that are needed to make this captivating not almost constant electronic music drowning out voices.
