也许你会想:这是阴谋!你想对了。

让我们跟着福尔摩斯来看看。
Set in the 1950s in the fictional village of Kembleford, the series follows Roman Catholic priest Father Brown who has a knack for solving crimes. He is assisted by parish secretary Bridgette McCarthy and is often a source of frustration for the local police.
Agatha's in need of a well-earned break and with Christmas just around the corner it looks like the perfect opportunity to relax. When she receives a letter from an old lady begging for protection, she can't help but spring into action.
After her bittersweet success in series one, Karen has been promoted to Detective Inspector and seemingly given the authority she has long been fighting for. Just as she’s getting into the swing of her powerful new role, she is assigned an infamous unsolved case that will put her under intense scrutiny; from her boss, from the media, and ultimately, from sinister forces that would rather the past stayed in the past.
The 1984 case of Catriona and Adam Grant has confounded investigators and intrigued the public like no other. Catriona, the charming young heiress to a vast oil fortune, and her two year old son Adam, were brutally kidnapped at gunpoint outside a fish and chip shop in Fife. The ransom notes that followed stirred up an uncontrollable press storm, but when the culprits fell silent, the police faltered, and Catriona and Adam were never seen again.
Now, a man’s body has been discovered, with indisputable links to the original kidnap. With the first piece of evidence in decades, Karen must assemble an unbeatable team alongside her sincere and lovable sidekick DC Jason ‘Mint’ and the brilliant – but romantically complicated – DS Phil Parhatka. With the international renown of the kidnap and the constant pressure from Catriona’s father, Sir Broderick Grant, the team take on the biggest challenge of their careers to date. As Karen delves deeper into what happened in the autumn of 1984, political grudges and painful secrets reveal themselves, and it soon becomes clear… the past is far from dead.
The Cotswolds-based PR guru turned amateur sleuth returns for a series of comedic murder-mysteries based on the books by M.C. Beaton.
该剧是英剧《摩斯探长》的续篇,于2006-2015年在ITV播出,共九季33集,每集约90分钟,其中从2013年的第七季开始每集在ITV1首播时被拆分为上下两部分连续两周播出,然而在重播时以及在美国PBS电视台播出时依旧作为整集播出。该剧将背景设置在学术气息浓郁的牛津,剧中很多含有隐喻的诙谐对白在外国文学爱好者看来会别有趣味,同时延续摩斯系列侧重通过案件展示各色人生和命运悲剧的特色,凶手被揭露后通常会有一幕对手戏将矛盾推至高潮,尘埃落定后缓和而带有希望的片尾曲又形成鲜明映衬,让人感叹命运无常及人的渺小,同时又看到光明的希望。该剧多位编剧也曾参与ITV版大侦探波洛和马普尔小姐系列剧的改编。

英国ABC摄制的经典间谍剧集The Avengers在整个60年代红极一时,风靡英语世界,时至今日仍然吸引着世界各地无数的拥趸,成为和The Prisoner、Doctor Who等齐名的老牌英国Cult TV经典,而国内也曾在80年代以《复仇天使》的译名引进其中一小部分。The Avengers系列结束10年以后,剧集制作人Brian Clemens和Albert Fennell在70年代创作、拍摄了续集The New Avengers,同样获得相当大的成功,国内在80年代曾以《三个侦探》的不当译名引进。
The New Avengers沿用了The Avengers系列的男主角超级特工John Steed(Patrick Macnee),原系列中的美女搭档换成了两个年轻后辈Mike Gambit和Purdy。剧情配合冷战背景,涉及间谍与反间谍、有组织犯罪、科幻等多种题材,很多创意在当时颇有前卫性,因而在70年代重掀Avengers热潮。电视摄像与制作技术在10年间的发展,使得The New Avengers比前作显得更为专业。虽然和如今的好莱坞大片相比,The New Avengers在噱头和视觉效果方面要相差很多,但是在70年代其地位还是相当高的,而在今天作为怀旧经典仍然具有相当不错的观赏性和娱乐性。
该剧根据弗兰克·塔利斯的小说改编,由《神探夏洛克》的编剧史蒂芬·汤普森负责撰写剧本,故事设定在20世纪的维也纳,讲述师从弗洛伊德的年轻医生Max协助奥地利警探Oskar破案的故事。Max对于人类行为的深入理解,让他为一些神秘莫测的案件提供了不一样的侦破角度。

本剧集是BBC 2台2000年正式推出的以青年人为题材和对象的系列情景喜剧,创意和编剧均由Steven Moffat一人担当。三男三女的主要人物构成很容易使人联想到当时正走红(其实已经在走下坡路)的《Friends》,因此很有不少根本没看过本剧的媒体人士和评论家想当然地将本剧称作英国版的《Friends》,而在那些有幸欣赏过本剧的观众们看来,《Coupling》在情节设定、人物表演、喜剧元素的设计和表现等诸多方面所达到的水平,要比《Friends》高几个档次。相比之下,《Friends》只能说是一部“业余”水平的好作品而已。当然总体来说,英剧的水准本身就高于美剧,这和英剧注意保持创意、编剧一体化是分不开的,美剧的创意一般也就为最初几集编剧,以后主要的编剧工作都是由其它编剧根据最初的角色设定来自由发挥,编剧队伍的构成也是不断变化,老的走新的来,造成美剧情节连贯性差甚至前后矛盾,故事往往缺乏深度,人物性格平面化,缺少发展。这都是题外话了。
《Coupling》的主要人物包括优柔寡断、性格不成熟的帅哥Steve,Steve的莫逆之交、举止语言古怪、总也找不到女友的Jeff,头脑简单、外表性感的“donkey” Patrick三位对Porn、特别是lesbian porn非常热中的男士,以及Steve的前女友、神神叨叨、擅用性感作武器的Jane,Steve的继任女友、Jeff的同事、曾经非常“不羁”(包括和Jeff还有Patrick)过的Susan,Susan的莫逆、对衰老和肥胖极度敏感的美容师Sally三位女士。在第一集中,Steve决定“再次”和女友Jane分手,结果却被Jane三言两语引诱到洗手间亲热;Patrick想把和Susan的关系再进一步,却被告知根本不存在什么“关系”; Susan在洗手间碰到匆忙出来买Durex的Steve,向他表示好感,两人订下约会以后Steve钻进隔间继续……。本剧的主线包括Steve和 Susan之间逐渐正式起来的关系,Jeff寻找艳遇过程中的种种意外以及后来和上司发展出来的一段关系,Patrick和Sally之间若有若无到若即若离再到情深难舍的感情发展,还有Jane在事业和异性关系中的各种奇事,等等。
本剧在情节设计中所达到的精致和完美程度让人叹为观止,而六位当时并不算大明星的青年演员的所展现精湛演技更是具有顶尖演员的水平,无怪乎播出之后立刻走红大洋两岸,在IMDB、AMAZON和BBC网站可以领略到其受欢迎的程度。2002年底,第3季播毕,故事情节基本告一段落。美国NBC看到这部“英国版《Friends》”在英美两地均广受欢迎,觉得正好可以搬来做2004年终于要关张的《Friends》的接班人,于是2003年大张旗鼓地决定翻拍美版《Coupling》。美国的fans本来以为这是件好事,没想到NBC的翻拍愚蠢地采用了全台词照搬的方法,虽然个人没看过,不过也可以想象到有多恶心,结果只播出一集Pilot就因为骂声太大而整个计划搁浅(这点上美国佬是值得学习的,不象中国有些搞影视的骂声越大越要上)。在这里http://www.nbc.com/Coupling/可以看到这个计划的尸体,还有一些彻底走了味儿的剧照。
2003年底,本剧获得英国喜剧奖(BCA)最佳电视喜剧奖。BBC已经在2004年正式开拍并播出第4季,不过Jeff这个人物将不再出现,而代之以新角色——经营Sci-Fi书店的Oliver,由Richard Mylan扮演。从已经播出的几集来看,应该说在更换主要角色之一的背景下,基本保持了前3季的水准,但是同时也流露出对前3季中成功情节进行拷贝的迹象,希望这仅仅是偶然。
Two's company, three's a crowd... so what do you do with six? On average, men and women think about sex every six seconds. Shorten that to every second, and you've got Coupling. It's more than just a one night stand!
When a couple gets together, it's never just the two of them - they also bring baggage - and Susan (Sarah Alexander) and Steve (Jack Davenport) are no exception. Their baggage is a crowd of best friends and exes who talk about all aspects of sex and relationships on their never-ending quest to find true love. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...
Susan Walker is a beautiful go-getter with an uninhibited attitude who used to date Patrick Maitland (Ben Miles), the sextet's charismatic, cocky player, London's king of conquests - a guy who's just too cool to worry about being smart. Attractive Sally Harper (Kate Isitt) is a beauty therapist who is Susan's unashamedly vain best friend, who aggressively battles aging with heavy doses of moisturizer and men - including Patrick.
Meanwhile, Steve Taylor, while getting together with Susan, can't seem to shake loose from his vivacious and slightly vacuous ex-girlfriend Jane Christie (Gina Bellman), a woman supremely confident in her ability to seduce anyone of either sex, and who refuses to be dumped unless she's the one doing the dumping. Jeff Murdoch (Richard Coyle) is Steve's "porn buddy" who is, in equal parts, obsessed and bewildered by actual sex; charming in his way, but with an uncanny ability to say the wrong thing at the worst possible time. He works in the same office as Susan, with whom he had a disastrous and unsuccessful one-night fling.
Coupling has been honoured with the prestigious Silver Rose of Montreux, Best TV Comedy Award, and is recent winner at the 2003 British Comedy Awards.
With a new guy on the scene, a baby on the way, commitment in the air, and love on the horizon, the dynamics of the six friends are definitely changing.
At the end of last season Susan and Steve discovered they were pregnant (well, mostly Susan), confirmed bachelor Patrick and Sally finally admitted their true feelings for each other, and poor Jane was left on her own, once again.
But it's not all doom and gloom for Jane. As the new season opens, things are looking up. There's this guy called Oliver, who has his eye on her. Is it possible that lifetime loser in love Oliver might just get somewhere with lifetime loser in love Jane? Trouble is, his apartment is a little "un-edited" and his living room has lost the battle with magazine nudity...
Susan and Steve are now well and truly an item. So why is he dreaming about being executed by a fetus with an axe?
Meanwhile Sally and Patrick are settling into their new relationship. But since the dawn of time, men and women have been falling in love - and men have been trying to get home straight afterwards. Can fallen playboy Patrick ever find his way back from the enchanted glade of his one true love and get a decent night's sleep?
