I just saw the film of the No1 Ladies' Detective Agency and I thought it was great! Did anyone else see it? And they are going to make a series to be shown next year :grin:

BBC - no1 Ladies Detective Agency

I've recorded it to watch it later. :D

Was it on BBC? :unsure:

yep.. BBC 1

I had no idea! Glad to hear it was good...will have to watch for it around here...

I saw a brief ad for it and it looked great - hubby said that Ma Ramotswe looked exactly as he'd pictured her.

I love those books. Gotta see if we can find it here.

I just watched it and it was fab!!!

I haven't read any of the books, but I really enjoyed it. THe setting was beautiful and it just made me smile. If you do watch it, the end credits are great too! Lovely animation :)

Such a shame that Anthony Minghella died so recently

Oh, I'm jealous...but it sounds like the sort of thing that PBS might pick up sometime in the next year or so; would love to see it.

Can't you watch it on the BBC site? On the Iplayer? It stays there for a week...

I really liked it too! It seemed just as you'd imagine from the books.

And wasn't the woman who played Precious BEAUTIFUL? I will see if I can post a picture BRB


No I can't do it from work I will do it later :)

waii~!! will it be on in america? I adored the first book!

You know, I got the first book about two years ago because everyone was talking about it and I didn't like it. Couldn't even finish it.
