Thursday Review: BroadChurch: If you are not following Broadhchurch on BBC America, you are missing a great drama series staring David Tennant (Doctor Who) and Olivia Colman (Hyde Park on the Hudson). If you missed the first few episodes, you still have time to add it to your VOD list. The drama airs on Wednesday nights at 10 p.m. on BBC America as a part of Dramaville, check with your local cable provider for more information. The show gives the viewer a little taste of grief, horror, extraordinariness, and innocence. The acting is strikingly good and uniformly excellent. The series centers on the investigation of a 15 year old boy in a British seaside town. Leading the investigation are two detectives – the strong yet compassionate local Detective Sergeant, Ellie Miller (Olivia Colman), and the by-the-book Detective Inspector Alec Hardy (David Tennant), Ellie’s newly appointed boss. By circumstance they are partnered to solve the murder, keeping the newspapers from wrecking the investigation and trying to prevent the crime from killing tourism at the beach where the boy was murdered. The cast also includes Jodie Whittaker as Beth, Andrew Buchan as Mark, Will Mellor as Stephen Turner and Arthur Darvill as the town priest Paul Coates. The series is created and written by Chris Chibnall and executive produced by Chibnall and Jane Featherstone.
