In dit derde seizoen van Hinterland zijn we terug in het ruige Wales, waar inspecteurs Tom Mathias en Mared Rhys hun handen vol hebben aan de moordzaken in en om Aberystwyth, een kustplaatsje vol duistere geheimen. Na het dramatische einde van het vorige seizoen heeft Mathias de grootste moeite om zowel zijn mentale als fysieke littekens te boven te komen. De schuilplaats die hij aan de ruige kust bij Ceredigion had gevonden is vernietigd, waardoor hij terugkeert naar Aberystwyth. Daar krijgen Mathias en zijn team te maken met uiteenlopende moordzaken, zoals de gewelddadige dood van een geestelijke, de vondst van een lijk in een ondiep graf en de ontvoering van een jongen door zijn vader.Intussen is DS Sian Owen belast met het onderzoek naar de aanval op Mathias, maar de komst van een onafhankelijke inspecteur bemoeilijkt de zaak.

When you think about it, most British TV murder mysteries are wildly unrealistic. After all, even London has relatively few homicides - just 1.54 per 100,000

A look at the sets from the classic sitcom "Bewitched" starring Elizabeth Montgomery and the house on 1164 Morning Glory Circle.
kingsfordhomestead.com.au It then embarked on perhaps its most unusual role, standing in as ‘Drover’s Run’ on the hit TV show, McLeod’s Daughters. The set was closed off from the public for seven years of production and run like a working farm for the purposes of filming, complete with 100 cattle, 250 sheep, 15 horses, working dogs and a team of stockmen. Interior scenes were all filmed inside the house; outbuildings on the property were also used, including ‘Meg's cottage’ next to the main house. It’s not widely known, but the show was going to be called Drover’s Run until Packer vetoed the name for the one it went to air with. A total of 224 episodes of McLeod’s Daughters were viewed in 41 countries. The Ahrens family purchased the property in 2009, carefully converting the property to the five-star retreat you are enjoying today. Kingsford is listed on the State Heritage Register and Register of the National Estate. Facebook.com/mcleodsdaughtersoriginalfansite/photos_stream mashpedia/McLeod_Daughters_(season_1)
At impressionable ages, we're affected by the culture around us. In my childhood, I was deeply affected by a television show called "Bewitched." It was hugely popular in the 1960's and later syndicated so you may have seen it. Have you? The show is noteworthy for several reasons but what hit me was its surprising presentation of women. The show centers on a woman, Samantha, who is ostensibly a suburban housewife. Her character is contradictory -- on the outside, she looks like a traditionally feminine housewife but, in reality, she's a witch with potent powers (to move objects, cast spells, change people's minds). Samantha struggles to conceal her powers, especially from her husband, because displaying power was considered unfeminine back then. While her husband knows she's a witch, Samantha promised him to refrain from exercising her powers except in emergencies. Thus, while Samantha is frequently in control of domestic situations, she pretends not to be. When aware of hidden realities, she pretends she's clueless. In essence, the scripts frequently plume the conundrum that women of that era faced -- how to reconcile their natural abilities with restrictive social expectations. Not insignificantly, Samantha uses a male nickname ("Sam") which hints at this. I'm sure many kids, mostly girls but also me, learned about gender from this light-hearted comedy. How should women behave when they possess real power? Flaunt it? No. Display it openly? No. Use it for good without taking credit? Yes. There are important social lessons being taught by this show. The first season (which is the best) is now on DVD and I've been re-watching it, this time with wiser eyes. In addition to the show's social dynamics, I'm reminded of how mesmerized I was at Samantha's extremely attractive femininity. Truthfully, I still am. Sam wears beautiful cocktail dresses (even when doing nothing at home), always has on false eyelashes and full makeup, and stands tall in high-heeled pumps. She's effortlessly gorgeous in a traditional way. And that effortlessness took hours of work by costume-designers and makeup-artists. I'm attaching some pictures below which demonstrate this. Did you watch the show? What did you think of it?
I know there are many out there {myself included!} that are absolutely besotted with the Australian series "OFFSPRING". The lovable character of Nina Proudman {played by the beautiful Asher Keddie} is one that I can truly relate to! As I sit here asking and answering questions in my own head {!}, I'm sure that everybody may see a little of Nina in themselves at times? One thing I do know for certain is Nina is inspiring and influencing women all over with her beautiful bohemian style... The one thing I love about Nina's "look" is that it is very achievable! Sure,I understand that her ability to "throw" things together and look fabulous doesn't always work in real life. There are days when I have stood in front of the mirror and my over "layering" has left me resembling the likes of a coat rack! This is when my favourite mantra comes into play..."less is more". I always remember reading, before you leave the house, take one last look and then remove an accessory...{and no..that does not mean leaving your partner at home!}. I love that Nina does the scarf thingy! I LOVE scarfs! I have many! For that reason you will always find a beautiful scarf at Nest. Another of Nina's accessories that is creating quite a stir is her absolutely GORGEOUS "Nancy Bird" bag. "Nancy Bird" is another brand that you will always find at Nest! I DID have it in store however it was quickly snapped up. If you are lusting after Nina's bag , please let me know as I may just be able to organise it..... :) Tan 'Nolan' Bag by Nancy Bird So...., if you haven't met Nina you must take a peek at "Offspring". She really is lovely..and I must say there is some rather fine looking male talent on the show at the moment also! However, I do miss Doctor Chris......and I'm sure Nina does too...*sigh*
