Life On Mars is the smash-hit cop show starring John Simm as a detective who is involved in a car accident and wakes to find himself transported back to 1973 – a world dominated by Ford Cortinas, sheep-skin jackets, flares, silly haircuts, glam rock and very hard coppers.

Episode 3 is one of the weaker sketchs with a rather silly plot about a scab in a textiles factory getting killed. However Episode 4 is much stronger with corruption in the police force the core of the story. Which way will old-style police thug DCI Hunt swing, will he back up Simm or continue on the take? The series is now beginning to motor, the dialogue in this script is some of the smartest and the series is doing what it does at its best, parodying both 70s cop shows and the 70s themselves.

THE FIRM (GARY OLDMAN) (1989)
Certification18 Our Rating
Brilliant, no-holds-barred British drama with an outstanding early performance by Gary Oldman as Bex, a smooth-talking suited-up estate agent, whose real ambition is to lead his marauding gang of football hooligans to ultimate victory in Europe. Hard-hitting, brutal in places, but just superb.
