L&O UK

[caz963]

Liked it overall - the pacing is good - better than many other UK cop dramas.

The relationship between Bradley Walsh's and Jamie Bamber's characters works really well.

Jamie Bamber is cute.

Harriet Walter's downmarket accent is somewhat disconcerting! She usually plays uber-posh :)

The tell-tale L&O "dings" between each scene, played over the black screen with the white titles are a bit freaky when the title reads - "Hallem Street, Kings' Cross, N1" !!

Jamie Bamber is very cute.

Freema Agyeman has done really well out of that short stint in DW!

Ben Daniels is cute too ;-)

Patrick Malahide as a nasty defence solicitor... sure we'll be seeing more of him.

Not a bad start overall - I thought the first section was better than the second (and no, not just due to the presence of Mr Bamber in the first part!) - so I'll be watching again.

Methinks I need a Jamie icon. Suggestions?

ETA: Found some! Although I wouldn't mind finding some more...

How about this one??

You should also find some Jamie as Matt ones here:

Welcome to the joys of the delightful Jamie. He is indeed very cute and also mighty smart (I like my men to have a brain and be able to use it) It's his accent in this that throws me a bit. Whilst I'm used to his US one from BSG after all these years, I do love his real one, which is a fair bit posher than the one he uses to play Matt.

Anyway, glad you enjoyed it *grins*

*stares*

Um. What?

I'm with you on the cute and smart (sounds like someone else I fangirl!) - and I'll definitely check out that comm.

The show was worth watching, although it didn't light any fires. But I'll stick around for a while :)

The review in the RT wasn't all that promising and it's on at the same time as WDYTYA, so I didn't watch. I'm already convinced of Mr Bamber's cuteness, but I bet he doesn't get to appear in the vicinity of nothing but a very small towel in L&O.

[hooloovoo_42]

OK, that icon should be one of the NY Brad ones, not a fox and a bunch of hounds :-(

[caz963.livejournal.com]

Well, I did wonder at the sudden influx of doggies!

I think you're probably right about the small towel, which is a very sad thing :(

The write-up in RT wasn't great, I know, but the good stuff was good. The legal-eagles were just a bit too earnest I suppose, but maybe that side of things will improve.

You doubted the pretty? :P

[caz963.livejournal.com]

Oh, no, I never doubted the pretty for one moment! I just thought it needed saying, you know, for completeness :)

My first thought: "there's ANOTHER version of L&O? Oh dear god".

My second: "Jamie Bamber is in it??? Please let them show it here!"

[caz963.livejournal.com]

Heh - yes, there's another one. But methinks Mr Bamber is tempting enough to make it required viewing, yes? *g*

I MUST DOWNLOAD ASAP! Thanks for the reminder this was on :D

[caz963.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! It wasn't bad - not exactly earth-shattering, but still worth watching.

Law & Order is Law & Order, but it's got Jamie and Freema in it - so for me it'll be good to see them in different roles.

*edits to put in Freema icon instead*

dianora2 should easily be able to help you out with that. Especially if what you find most cute about Jamie Bamber are his armz.

[caz963.livejournal.com]

Well, the armz aren't really on display in this one, but I was hoping Dia would pitch in and point me in the right direction at some point! I found some nice ones at the L&O UK comm that hockeyvaughnfan linked to, but as we know, you can never have too much pretty!
