New shows

[BazzaG]

ALL of the ABC shows are listed in their online TV guide, so I see no reason not to update or add them with appropriate date.

Nine is currently running ads for Doctor Doctor and MAFS (Monday 3rd) during the tennis.

BTW, BOTH Mastermind shows have Australia in their name, for example:

... the main plot line, which (without giving away too much in the way of spoilers, after all the book has been published for some time) revolves around the ruthless exploitation by security services of what is essentially a relatively naive member of the general population.  ...

It's not as if the book is in the same class as the mainstream Le Carré's work.

I think it's fair to say that the misuse of naive members of the general public by the security services in Carré's work goes back all the way back to The Spy Who Came In From The Cold. The misuse (by George Smiley, IIRC) of a naive member of ones own security services was the theme of The Looking Glass War. Smiley's People revolves around the misuse of a relative of a high-ranking Russian member of the KGB to extort the agent's defection.

HI Bazza,
I've checked through and I believe all new shows on ABC are now noted.  Singapore's Secret Gardens appears to be a single documentary so won't be shown in New Series.
Regards Gai

From a recent SBS Newsletter "Fargo season 4 will no longer premiere on Wednesday 22 April, due to the suspension of production during the COVID-19 pandemic. SBS will advise the program's premiere date in due course."

Van Der Valk ABC/ABC HD Sat 4 Apr 20:30: reboot of a UK-made & cast police detective drama set in Amsterdam that ran 5 seasons between 1972 & 1992. The reboot stars Mark Warren (Danny Blue in Hustle) as Commissaris/Inspector Van Der Valk.

It hasn't rated all that well on IMDb, though: 7.0 for the original series and 6.4 for the new one.

A minor thing, Series 6 of The Brokenwood Mysteries looks to have started off with "The Power Of Steam" scheduled for 9Gem, 8:30pm, Sun, 7 June. I have it in my Manage Series list, but for those who don't, I don't recall having seen it in New Series i.e. no yellow star against the listing in My Week.

If the whole series is broadcast there will be four episodes.
