I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

good back-story, and good acting

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Excellent show! Love the storylines. Beautiful lovely color and scenery. And I love the characters. All of them are excellent. I recommend the show whole heartedly.

This is very weak in every area. The one standout actress is the lead, Amanda Redman, and Phyllis Logan in the first series, who literally has to carry the series by themselves. The other actors are just like wooden puppets, especially the young Indian male doctor. He needs to go back and finish acting school. There are also ridiculous plots that are built around some medical events that are so far fetched that one wonders if they had a medical adviser on the set at all? This is a series to watch when you have absolutely nothing else in your queue and just want to watch something to pass the time.

The acting is very good and the direction allows the actors time to show complex emotions. Without it, the series would be ordinary fare. Well, the beauty of the setting helps.And the switch back and forth between different scenes in different places - very nicely done - the emotion ramped up in one setting, then a switch to the other setting and we can breathe out. Cleverly and sympathetically done.

To be perfectly fair, I was very excited at the beginning of the film and 5mins into the story and a few Dutch Colonial Houses and a Red Sri Lankan bus this was a dead give away! No big deal; but why say its India? Did the producers think they would get a bigger audience! I think the Indian community would be just as offended as the Sri Lankan community for this mischaracterization! A total lack of integrity on the par of the ITV producers.The film appears to be shot mostly in the South Coast of Sri Lanka. Galle, Matara Tangalle or some where in that region....Sorry. but very disappointing.WZ
