House of Saddam

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I get hooked to this serie and if you still haven’t check it out yet please pay visit to the bbc iplayer site for the latest.

House Of Saddam

I really enjoy it and although i wish it was a bit of more like the 13 episodes style so they can really go deeper into the true story and give at the same time a little more like history 2.0 to those who don’t know anything about the Iraq story from Iran-Iraq war time to the Iraq-us war time, but nonetheless it’s a very enjoyable show .

If you live outside UK DVD will soon be available , make sure to get yours .

If you don’t know or havn’t heard about the new BBC drama The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency filmed entirely in Botswana then you are missing something extraordinary on tv.

The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency

Charme ,nature beauty combined with a great story and a well played characters.

I love Africa and seeing this drama just bring tears in my eyes .

The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency

There is no Hollywood special effects or such but just good acting and extraordinary landscape.

I have to admit it , i watch it twice via BBC iplayer just for the  fascinating beauty of the landscape and the traditional clothes.

The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency

The beauty of Africa is the traditional value and this drama really shows some of it.

The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency

I can only thanks BBC for an outstanding work as we only see Africa most of the time in news,documentary, and low budget projects.

The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency

The Passion : A Must Watch Drama

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

Quick recommendation for this sacred period is the BBC new shows :The Passion.

 thepassion4.jpg

The show retelling the greatest story ever told (the last week in the life of  Jesus Christ known as the Passion ) in a very nice visual interpretation with great acting .

thepassion2.jpg

“It’s the start of Passover week. In the next few days thousands of pilgrims will pour into Jerusalem to celebrate the most important festival in their religious calendar. For their Roman masters, led by Pontius Pilate, it is the most difficult time of the year. For the High Priest Caiaphas and his Temple priests the workload will be heavy and the pressure to maintain civil order will be intense.

Then news is brought that Jesus the Galilean is approaching the city on a donkey’s colt, and will be entering Jerusalem through the East Gate – thus fulfilling two of the most powerful religious prophecies of the coming of the Messiah. The one who many believe will lead them to military victory or spiritual salvation.

On the streets a crowd is beginning to gather.

And the week has only just begun…”.

If you missed previous episodes and want to catch up , either check the bbc iplayer link for previous episodes you can watch online or the first 3 episodes will be repeated on Easter Sunday 23rd March beginning at 14:15 on BBC ONE.

Unfortunately the iplayer will work only for those in the UK so for the rest outside the UK:

“The series will be available on DVD at a later date. Bible Society is producing a pack of educational materials to accompany the series for use in schools, churches and adult education. It is legal to record the broadcast for your personal use, but it is illegal to use that copy for public display.”
