Line of Duty (TV Series)Line of Duty (TV Series) (2012)
Feat. Lennie James, Martin Compston, Vicky McClure
Outstanding new British policier deals with corruption and department politics within a special unit whose record crime figures don't quite add up. Focusing on the bureaucracy and red tape surrounding police investigations, this recalls the hard-nosed realism and cynicism of THE WIRE.
Story of Ireland, The (TV Mini-Series)Story of Ireland, The (TV Mini-Series) (2011)
An RTE and BBC co-production in which presenter Fergal Keane showcases Irish history, charting the origin and impact of the myths that have been passed off as history in the past. Five episodes.

Feat. Sarah Lancashire, Steve Pemberton, Siobhan Finneran
Another riveting top-shelf British police drama hot on the heels of BROADCHURCH. Sarah Lancashire stars as a Yorkshire sergeant who suspects a local ex-con is responsible for her daughter's death, among other crimes and misdemeanors. Series One: six episodes across two discs. Series Two: six episodes…
