In my opinion, the best British drama of the last 10 years!

Sam Tyler (John Simm) is an ambitious young detective determined to keep the streets of 21st Century Manchester safe. However, the hunt for a serial killer becomes a personal vendetta when Sam suspects his girlfriend has been kidnapped by the very man he's tracking down.

But after a near fatal car accident, Sam wakes up, dazed and confused, in 1973, struggling to understand what's real. Has he gone back in time? Is he in a coma? Or has he simply gone insane?

His new boss is hard-nosed DCI Gene Hunt (Philip Glenister), a man who gets results by trusting his gut instinct and using a 'fists first question later' policy.

Thrown head-first into this new world, Sam faces some of the hardest cases he has ever known. He has no idea why he is in 1973, but maybe if he can work out the reason, he can get home...

Ah balls I spent about 45 euro on the pair of them about a fortnight ago...

It is a bloody brilliant show though, so it was still worth it.

EDIT: They also have series 1 of "Ashes to Ashes" (sequel series for Life on Mars) for 11.93 which seems like a very nice price.

Gene Hunt's Mancunian whine has a hint of the great Mark E Smiths rants. IMO.:eek:

watched the whole lot, brilliant especially the last episode, well worth it. Making my way through ashes to ashes, not as good but still got most of the charm

I wasn't as impressed with Ashes To Ashes in the beginning either, but it gets very good in the last two or three episodes.

I see from wiki there is a US version of this show. Has anyone seen it?
