Wire in the Blood S6; Simone's Last WitB Stint?

So an update ... I do have the interview clip of Simone - I'm making it into an .avi file as I type this. I should have it posted to the ftp and youtube in about an hour or so ... I will be back here to update the info when its done.

The Val McDermid video is proving to be rather difficult. The person on the torrent site has not yet uploaded it and getting the file downloaded has been difficult - though I'm still working on it.

I can't even begin to tell you how hard it was just to get this 4 min clip of Simone ... so unless the uploader comes through for me ... I can't really promise the McDermid one will available ... but that doesn't mean I've given up yet.

Edited to add:

The video is not perfect ... and actually freezes near the end - but you can still hear Simone talking - so I figured it was good enough ... since you get most of the interview.

Go here:

And then go to the Folder labeled SL - it's right there!

Enjoy and again sorry for the quality - it was the best I had for now ...

this episode is a prime example of something the Yanks would have done just as well in half the time, God bless them and their short attention spans.


I have to admit this made me laugh out loud!

Though I have never noticed this at all:

Of greater concern is the predilection the sultry Inspector Alex Fielding (Simone Lahbib) has for flirting with her suspects in the interview room.

Hi guys
I'm a little confused about the length of the eps in Series 6
I read on another board that it was gonna be longer.
I'm open to correction but I though that the previous Series were all 90 minute eps but, according to our TV Guide here in Ireland, next Friday's Series 6 opener is an hour long episode does that mean we'll get 8 hour long eps this year instead of 4 90 minute eps?.
Either way I'm glad the show's back. I hope Paula get's some action too this year.

The first ep of the season already aired in Australia - I have it available on my ftp right now (info is in the links topic area). The episode is 1:30 - and looks to be the whole ep (not split into two parts).

According to ITV.com ... the episodes will air in the UK in two parts. The series will be 4 two-part stories. The first part of the first ep is showing as airing from 9-10 pm on Friday Sept 12th.

I hope this helps and makes sense!

Edited to add:

I just watched the episode and its quite good.

I did enjoy the shout out to Bad Girls. The new cop kept calling Alex "Ma'am" - until she tells him to stop because it makes her sound like the bloody queen. That line seems pretty familiar!

Oh that's great. <G> Yeh, vintage "Prime Suspect" spoken by Dame Helen Mirren, landmark strong brit female prime time character (in an ep and series in which Jack Ellis also appeared) passed on lovingly to Helen Stewart to quote and now...

Hi guys
Thanks molsongrrrl for clearing that up because I was confused when I saw it was only an hour long episode.
So the Series will last for 8 weeks but consist of four2-part episodes.
Thanks for the clarification

WITB S6 starts in the UK this Friday (12th September).

Robson Green was on Something For The Weekend this morning (BBC2) and they showed a clipfrom the first ep :)

Must admit we did think we're getting a full 2 hours over the Australian version, but then I've just got to watch the Australian episode and there are no advert breaks in that! So I don't think we're going to be that must different in actual viewing times after all once we take the adverts into account.

Am I missing something?? Because it doesn't sound like they've actually changed how long the episodes are much at all then: they're usually between 1.20-1.25 or so, anyway. ? Sounds like it's just a maneuver to allow for more advertising, as others have said.

The Australian version was about 1:30.

In series 4 and 5 - the eps ran right around there.

So now these episodes for series 6 are split into two parts. An hour show ends up at about somewhere between 45-50 minutes actual show time (10-15 min of commercials) - so I think we'd basically end up with the same runtime for the show as in previous seasons.

When the show ran on BBC America earlier this year ... they had it scheduled for an hour ... so even with commercials they ended up adding a few scenes here and there to fill the time.
