Decoding

Have today watched the first two episodes of the Aussie political thriller The Code featuring the lovely Lucy Lawless*.


The official title page from the series. 










This show from Australia's state broadcaster ABC owes whole lot of its style to (the BBC series) Sherlock- text and email messages float into view in front of the characters, so the viewer reads them as if personally addressed. The gripping story so far has been split between a small outback town in beautiful New South Wales and the striking Federal Parliament building in Canberra, ACT**. Unusually (at least compared with this country), the scenes in Parliament were apparently filmed around and inside Parliament House.

Well worth watching and I can't wait for episodes 3 and 4 tonight.






*Not an actual Aussie. **ACT, Australian Capital Territory.
