The Bletchley Circle - 1x1
If someone had come up to me and said "we're gonna make a tv show about women code-breakers after the war, trying to fit back in and ending up solving murders", my response would have been "that sounds amazing, but no company will ever produce something like that. Not enough dudes doing shit."
Luckily for me, I would have been wrong. ITV produced it, and the first episode was quite smashing (despite the occasional bits of "rly, did we need that?" male-gazey murderer/victim).
The show does a good job capturing the flavor of the era, and the intelligence of the women. Now here's hoping the second episode is good.
(ps, Rachael Stirling is in it)
