A nice, simple meme this week, I hope, in keeping with the August spirit:
What’s your favourite TV show or TV episode filmed abroad?
So depending on how you feel like answering, it might simply be your favourite foreign TV show. It might be a whole TV show from your native country that’s filmed in another country (so Wallander if you’re from the UK or The Philanthropist if you’re American). It might be simply an episode (typically a Christmas episode) that’s been filmed in another country (eg Bones‘ season premier filmed in the UK). It’s up to you.
Mine, incidentally, is The Aphrodite Inheritance. But how about you?
As always, leave a comment with your answer or a link to your answer on your own blog.

I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
