British series, mini-series and dramas .....

I got round to finishing season 4 of Shetland last night.

Just brilliant.
 
Watching "The Crown" S02. A masterpiece thus far. Just as good as S01. This and "Victoria" makes for riveting viewing.

Yeah they make an interesting pair. Although I find Victoria much more theatrical and unrealistic than The Crown.
 
Ordeal by Innocence started the other night.

It's a three part series based on an Agatha Christie book.
 
If you're a gamer you may enjoy 'Rob Beckett's Playing for Time'. He goes back in time to play 80s video games (in the first episode).
 
Another new series called 'Come Home' started a week or so ago. Looks promising.
 
A new season of the Island with Bear Grylls started on Monday night.
 
If you're into game shows and love the baking duo of Mel & Sue then be sure to catch the reboot of 'The Generation Game'.
 
How can i get BBC iPlayeron my iPad?

Your account will need to be for the itunes UK store. And if you want to watch on your ipad even if you do have the app, or on a laptop or something else, you will need a vpn or dns settings in your router.

I have to say though, BBC, ITV and Channel 4 apps are fantastic and have an absolute shed load of content and are all free. Channel 4 especially has a massive amount on it going back over many years. BBC and ITV tend to have content shown on tv from the last month but they also have some boxsets at times.

So use something like Getflix and you have tons of stuff for the price of their subscription (4 dollars I think it is). I use the dns setting in my router at home and they also include a vpn which i have on my iphone and laptop for when I'm travelling. Best 4 dollars you can spend imo.
