Fleshmarket Close

In a mean bit of scheduling, two immensely popular whodunnits go head to head, which will doubtless quite rightly upset lovers of TV crime dramas. But it's Rebus that has the edge over BBC1's Dalziel and Pascoe. Based on Ian Rankin's book Fleshmarket Close, this is a downbeat, occasionally dour, but always absorbing mystery involving murder in Edinburgh's asylum-seeking and immigrant community. Ken Stott, who has an admirable ability to inhabit a role thoroughly, is again excellent as the shambolic detective. Here, he and his wise female sidekick are called upon to investigate the disappearance of a young Kosovan woman from her home on a bleak high-rise estate. There's a strong suggestion she's been subjected to racial torments by a family of thugs, one of whom has also gone missing.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER FANS??????????????????

Is it repeated cos I already have 2 things taping and it won't let me tape a third?

TIA my oracle

no sorry

sob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I am a huge fan of the Rebus books, i have every one of them. I just don't like how they have done the programmes They could have made them into two hour ot hour and ahalf shows for each book. I was really excited when i heard that Ken Stott was going to be Rebus, but i was very disappointed with the one shown at Christmas. The charcter is so complex and has so much baggage that isn't being explored on the show.

Thought it was good he is more Rebus than girlie John Hannah - too pretty!!!!

Love the books did an essay on one for uni Crime Fiction Module, Strip Jack....just waiting on my grade though probably a load of pish.

although I wish Ian Rankin would act and play rebus as that is how I picture Rebus as Ian Rankin cos he is always on the covers
