One of the best films i have seen
Doomtomylo
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Excellent crime series from Wales starring the venerable actor Phillip Madoc as the imperturbable Chief Inspector Noel Bain. There are no glamorous settings or actors straight from the gym and cosmetic surgery – just ordinary-looking people going about the business of good acting in believable stories. A special mention for Ffion Wilkins who plays Bain's head-strong and slightly rebellious daughter Hannah. An absolute beautiful Celtic girl with natural acting ability who has hardly appeared in anything else other than this series. I know she has had a modest career in music, but her screen presence and timing would lead one to believe that this young woman was headed for a long television acting career. I hope her talent was not squandered for other reasons. The DVD's for all series are on sale in Australia. If you are looking for something a bit more realistic than the flashy Hollywood stereotype, then you will find these series to your taste and worth the money.

What a pleasure to see 'old haunts' used in the making of this program, it was nice to travel down memory lane.It seemed to all fall into place, location, script, Actors, blended well to produce an intense modern day who-dun-it.Philip Madoc, Gillian Elisa and Sharon Morgan, to name a few, were fantastic.Great story lines, delving into the nitty gritty of Wales, such a pity it came to an abrupt end.The first two series of 'A Mind to Kill' were excellent, but it was a shame that only three members of the original cast remained for the third, or maybe they felt as I did, the script was too deep. It had lost it's way, the stories became too sinister, there was no longer a sense of joviality in the script, it was so serious and not what we had all, grown to enjoy. No longer like the Bain we knew and loved, the flirt, who could be a little rude, serious when needed, wicked when not.Why change a good thing?, it was not the move to C5 from C4 that proved fatal.It would be wonderful if it was possible to have the original actors and writers return, and maybe have it shown on either BBC, ITV or it's first home C4, and show the rest of the Country what Wales has to offer in good drama.Edward Harrhy.

I love the music being played by a country and western group, song seems to be Guardian Angel, I am not sure of the episode as I have it on an old tape and no title. It has to do with a bunch on vigilantes who drag a boy behind the truck and he gets strangled, they think that he killed one of their sons in a hit and run.I would appreciate any help, I am going to take the music off the tape but their is a lot of talk going over it.I really like the series, I am not sure how many we have on our great pile of tapes and must have more on them.It is difficult to understand sometimes but he plays such a good part, I liked the ones with his daughter in them.

Philip Madoc is a very dependable actor and he plays his character, DCI Noel Bain, very well with a touch of humour. The sub-plot has him a widower with a late-teenage daughter and there is also a consistent thread of other sub-plots in and around the police station.The story-lines were good, up to the standard of such major series as 'Frost', and the direction firm.The pity is that this series (I don't know how many episodes were made, but it must have been 13 or so, having been made by Pearson, was aired on Channel 5 and therefore went largely ignored.
