Two TV Shows Worth Watching

Happy December! It has been a little while since I have mentioned brilliant TV shows that I am enjoying, so here goes…

Today I wanted to talk about two programmes that have maintained my attention recently. They are shows that I would recommend you to have a look at.

Lessons In Chemistry (Apple TV Plus)

This show suddenly appeared on Apple TV Plus recently and was played out at a rate of one episode per week. Based on a popular book that I have yet to read, the story is about a woman who had a passion for science. At a time when women could only be lab assistants, she was keen to publish research about DNA.

Elizabeth Zott (played by Brie Larson) fell in love with another leading scientist, Calvin Evans (Lewis Pullman), while working as his lab assistant. A turn of fate led to her being alone and not being allowed recognition for her own work. Combining a love for chemistry and cookery, she took the chance to host a new food show on TV.

Set in the 1950s, Lessons In Chemistry is reminiscent and beautifully filmed.

Boat Story (BBC iPlayer)

There is a new TV series on the BBC which is quirky and intriguing. Starring Daisy Haggard as Janet Campbell and Samuel Peterson as Joseph Wells, this story is about a boat that was washed ashore full of drugs.

Janet and Samuel discovered the boat with two dead bodies on board and a drug stash that they decided to make their own. The hilarity comes when the French gang leader comes over to England to find the people who stole his goodies.

In A Nutshell

Both of these programmes are well written and satisfying to watch. ‘Boat Story’ is a kind of dark comedy whereas ‘Lessons In Chemistry’ is a wonderful 1950s drama.
