But, if you think about it, they are each 2 hours long, so they are in effect making 4 movies.

Yes ,I’m only kidding, I enjoy them so much and I seem to just get into them and they’re over.

I’ve never read any of the books, I wonder if anyone else on here has.

Yes "Vera" has been seen in various parts of the North East over the last couple of months on location shooting. It's amazing how much distance they cover to go around the corner!!

I'm currently watching an episode on ITV3, and there's a line that always makes me smile (they use it in the trailers):
DS Aiden Healy : Brace yourself.
Vera Stanhope : I've been braced since the 80s, pet.

I have read several of the books and they are very good. I must admit when the TV series started I was very disappointed, I suppose because Brenda Blethin didn’t fit the picture in my head of how Vera looked , she was described as looking like a ‘bag lady’ in the books so I thought the Tv character was too well dressed! However I have got over that and I now love the series! Although being a Geordie myself sometimes the accent makes me cringe a bit but it’s better than most. I also spend a lot of time trying to identify where the filming is taking place .

Peter Davison has become one of the actors that when he appears in a crime drama I immediately think 'he's the murderer'.
