Crime Drama Queens
Two old friends, Lily and Lex, chat about their love of TV crime dramas and murder mysteries. Each episode they watch and discuss a different show and what it means to them.
Crime Drama Queens
Episode twenty - "Life on Mars" (season one, episode five)
It's 1973 and Sam Tyler is mad, in a coma, or back in time. There are HUGE lapels, clicky man heels, indoor smoking, and some alledged cattle rustling. We're not sure if we're supposed to fancy Gene Hunt, but we're not judging you if you do.
There's a lot of football in this one, but don't let that put you off. There's a lot to love about Sam, Gene, Annie, and the gang, and if nothing else, it's reignited our love for chicken in a basket.
At time of recording. Life on Mars is available to watch in the UK on BBC Iplayer and on Britbox in the US.
This podcast contains descriptions of fictionalised violence and, of course, is full of SPOILERS.
