FYI, if you buy today’s Daily Star and then sign up for a 30-day free trial with Lovefilm, they’ll send you a free copy of the first series of Life on Mars. You can keep it and everything.
Which is nice. Or would be if I weren’t a member already.
Actually, I caught an episode of the first series of Life on Mars on Bravo the other night and it’s weird how it’s so much better and Gene Hunt is such a better character compared with Ashes to Ashes.
Still, Phillip Glenister says it really gets going with episode three, and episode two was very good, so I’m going to go with that recommendation for now.
