Blu-ray Review – The Bletchley Circle

The Bletchley Circle

"The Bletchley Circle" has an irresistible hook for crime-solving
entertainment, following the actions of four brilliant codebreakers from
WWII as they reteam to track down a serial killer in their hometown
nearly a decade later. I'm surprised this isn't a Hollywood blockbuster,
as the premise is ripe for maximum genre exposure. Instead of overblown
theatrics, we have this humble ITV production that's made its way to
America via PBS in an effort to show the audience there's a little more
bite to public television than one might expect. Sensible with a few
outrageous touches and smashingly acted by the four leading ladies, "The
Bletchley Circle" is addictive and fulfilling, carrying on like a
traditional British procedural, only with a delightful push of
empowerment to give it identity and a spirit to celebrate. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
