I loved the original series back in the day, tried watching a rerun episode recently, it had not aged well 😕

I never watched it right through but I remember the fretless bass in the theme tune.For some reason Mo Fosters name seems important, but it might have been some wee unheard of session man.Still like it though.

My claim to fame as an extra in the origional series 🤣

I was working the summer season in Jersey back in the 80s at the Opera House, great days :)

Weirdly they've been filming here in Torquay for the new series this week.

There's a super dooper posh house that was used for some cr@ppy reality TV show a couple of years ago.

I imagine its the baddies house in some upcoming episode.

could be a trans woman, another box ticked 

 

How long will you be able to resist saying "woke"?

 

Anyroadup, it's Zoë Wanamaker who AFAIK isn't trans. Irish actor Damien Molony is playing Jim Bergerac. Philip Glenister was in one episode of the original and is returning as a character called Arthur Wakefield, which I suspect will be a recurring character as he's one of the only three mentioned in several articles about the cast.
