maria-475 I have to say that I'm American and I LOVED Meadowlands (AKA Cape Wrath). It came on Showtime this year and it sucks to find out there wont be anymore episodes. So what was the point of them bringing it here if they aren't going to continue it. That's the 1 peeve I have about BBC programs, they cancel them (like HEX, which I also LOVED) and tease us with the leftovers a year later. At least Jekyll wrapped itself up in 6 episodes even though they left the door open to continue the series. That was great too. The Brits are definitely putting out better entertainment these days. I just wish we could get them at the same time. Also I hope Torchwood isn't over after the first 13 episodes. I like that too - and I guess I'll get sucked in and let down on that one too. At least Dr. Who's still around.

Jackson Booth-Millard As soon as saw the advert for this dark British drama series on Channel 4 I knew I has to try it, and I'm glad I did. The story revolves around the Brogan family, father/husband Danny (David Morrissey), mother/wife Evelyn (Lucy Cohu), teenage daughter Zoe (Felicity Jones) and teenage son Mark (Harry Treadaway) moving to the secluded and under-surveillance town of Medowlands. It is when Danny murders resident Jack Donnelly (Tom Hardy) after he tried to abuse Mark that the big theme of the programme is set in motion, suspicion and investigation. The stories that went on, besides body finding and stuff like that, but no police involved, included Evelyn finding out from Dr. David York (Tristan Gemmill) that Danny isn't Zoe and Mark's biological father, Mark having sex with Brenda Ogilvie (Melanie Hill) and later her gorgeous (even if she's big) daughter Jezebel Ogilvie (Ella Smith), Zoe and Tom Tyrell (Scot Williams) investigating stuff to do with Wintersgill (Ralph Brown), Samantha (Nina Sosanya) and Freddie Marcuse (Don Gilet) knowing something about this "Cape Wrath", and in the end you see just how secluded Meadowlands is, nothing for miles besides some fields before the desert-like nothingness, a good way to end the show which is not coming back, because of low ratings. Also starring Sian Brooke as Lori Marcuse, Emma Davies as Abigail York, Sean Harris as Ormond and Kate Steavenson-Payne as Alison Tyrell. It is rare that you get a British drama series with the almost same quality of entertainment as an American one, e.g. Lost. Very good!

nudles Can anyone tell me what the song title is that was featured in Episode 8 of Cape Wrath? (this is the episode where the Brogan's have their opening party for the new bar)A song is playing in the background - it's a dance beat, female singer, very airy voice...some of the lyrics areTwist and turn this way Broken dreams just fade Swallowed up my hate Hypnotise MeThe "hypnotise me" words repeat throughout, so I assume that is the title of the song. I have tried Google and every lyrics site - can't figure out this song! HELP!!!

weemonk Why hasn't anyone commented on this programme yet?I knew nothing at all about it going into the first episode but I will definitely be watching more. I don't want to give anything away as to what Meadowlands is about but I would best describe it as a cross between The Prisoner and Twin Peaks. Nice to see an English cast and UK filming. I thought Showtime were an American company? If you like your TV a bit out of the ordinary with quirky characters and an air of mystery then this is for you.This series has huge potential. Well worth trying.
