February 2010 at the BFI

Time for our regular look at what TV’s on at the South Bank in London in February. Not much this month, but the big highlight – by which I mean there’s three events – is the TV remake season, which has an episode from an old show followed by an episode of a new show. There’s also a CITV fun day with preview showings of Horrid Henry and Emu.

  • 9th: TV remakes: The Professionals
    Includes the first episode, Old Dog, New Tricks, from the original series, followed by CI5 – The New Professionals: Back to Business
  • 16th: TV remakes: Minder
    Features the first episode of the original series, Gunfight at the OK Launderette, followed by Better the Devil You Know, the first episode of the Five remake of Minder which aired last year
  • 23rd: TV remakes: Doomwatch
    No episodes from the old series, but a showing of the Five remake pilot Winter Angel, followed by the BBC4 documentary
    The Cult of Doomwatch
