Redfern Now is breathtaking and absolutely perfect. It stays with me for days after each episode. Sometimes it brings me to tears when I think about it. So heartbreaking and stories so beautifully told that I can’t find a single fault.
So, we bid farewell to the sexiest beard in television history and hope Craig McLachlan gets his gear off in season two as well as continuing to solve murderers in his own unique way. It’s The Power Of Craig (TPOC) that will always win us over in the end.
The story was moving a bit quicker this week in the second last episode of The Doctor Blake Mysteries titled ‘All That Glitters’. It was wonderful to see a very drunk Lucien (Craig McLachlan) tell the whole town what he thought of the visiting British Consul.
With only two episodes of The Doctor Blake Mysteries left one must ponder if this new series will be commissioned for a second season. Not much has happened storyline wise in these past eight episodes but there have been many great crimes and many great killers caught by Lucien’s (Craig McLachlan) cleverness.
Episode 7 of The Doctor Blake Mysteries is titled ‘Bedlam’ and is not surprisingly set in an asylum in chilly old Ballarat. Written by Chris Corbett instead of regular Stuart Page, this episode has a bit more vavoom to it than previous episodes past.
Guest starring Jacek Koman, best known for his role in Moulin Rouge as a narcoleptic leading man, this week Lucien (Craig Mclachlan) must find the killer and then let her go due to insufficient evidence. Jean (Nadine Garner) auditions for a play and after one meeting with a gentleman called Robert she is worried that he is going to ask for her hand in marriage!
Here’s the problem. Doctor Blakes Mysteries needs a good shake up. It’s as stale as Nice biscuit left out overnight. I want to love this show so much. Mclachlan is the best thing in it and on a weekly basis I find myself daydreaming about sexy Lucien and combing his beard as he wears way too many clothes for any woman’s liking.
I made a very odd discovery in this week’s episode of The Doctor Blake Mysteries. Way back in 1959 the ABC news music is…
Hurrah! The Power of Craig (TPOC) has finally come to pass! Last night’s episode titled ‘Death of a travelling salesman’ had all the action one could ask for.
