The Bletchley Circle, Season 2

Anna Maxwell Martin, Rachael Stirling, Sophie Rundle, and Julie Graham are joined by Olivier Award-nominated actor Hattie Morahan for two new code-breaking thrillers in The Bletchley Circle, Season 2.

AN EDGE-OF-YOUR-SEATER

I watch PBS because it has the best of all mystery offerings and the most inventive, well-crafted programs from the UK. I managed to see only one episode of The Bletchley Circle on tv, and I wanted MORE, so I ordered seasons 1 and 2 from you. I have seen all of series 1, and intend to begin series 2 this evening. The girls from BC are intelligent and crafty, but they know they must not show how smart they are before the men (husbands and the law) in post-war Britain. How they manage to thwart criminals,keep their brains agile, while making folks believe theyre just ordinary women, is true storytelling. I highly recommend The Bletchley Circle!

...from the UK, the U.S. -- or Namibia??

How is the U.K. Edition labeled country of origin: U.S. and when I mouse over the entries under Other formats I see country of origin: Namibia??? Misleading or incorrect information seems to be the hallmark of much at ShopPBS! And Im still waiting for an answer to my query about why I was shipped two identical blu-ray Season I/II sets...at two different prices...when I only ordered one set.

Talent is Timeless

A series that shows the indispensable nature of gifted women even after those gifts are not appreciated by those in power. Four women show that while a war is over the struggles of some continue. They use their amazing talents in a stifling world that would seek to pigeon hole them in meniality. Working together they seek to save the victims of a predator, find justice for those that have fallen and in the end redeem what it means to be genius.

Suspenseful and engagiing

I truly enjoyed this series. Sometimes when I watch shows a second time I pick up on small flaws, or themes that dont quite add up. I did not find that with this series. It just made me anxious to find out what happened to the characters in the next series.

Very Good

2-2hr plots! Both well done and worth watching but the plots were not as strong as season one.

A good follow-up to Season 1.

Our team, minus one, tries to prove the missing member didnt commit murder. They are mystified why she wont present a defense, despite facing the death penalty. Tensions rise as she is found guilty and her execution draws near. She finally tells her friends the truth and they rush to save her from the gallows. Two other stories follow and are good romps into solving crime by analysis.

Better the second time around

It just gets better and better

A careful, methodical approach to solving crimes, made all the more interesting by the fact that these women are not detectives and keep most of their work secret from their families. Cant wait for the next season.

Workiing on the Inigma machine.

After seeing the movie The Imatation Game I was so interested in anything related to that movie. I was watching our local PBS station The Bencley Circaley came on and I thought this looks good so I watched .I so hope there will be more to folloew.

War-time skills used in later days

I enjoyed the show. I didnt realize so many people had had to sign the official secrets act had to lie about what they did during the war. Especially had to be hard for the decoders at Bletchley who had to be content with going back to previous lives and solving crossword puzzles and number puzzles as their only outlet. A group of former workers at Bletchley are convinced that current murders can be solved by patterns, coding and analysis. There are a few stumbles along the way, but in the end they are right on. It also is a realistic portrayal of the hardships of life in post-war England. I hadnt realized rationing coupons lasted so long afterwards. Great costuming as well. A fun peek at post-war England with drama suspense thrown in.

Bletchley Circle-Original and Series 2

Not being familiar with the program, I had hoped it would be based on WWII Bletchley situations in the breaking of German coding and messages. Aside from that, I enjoyed the mystery stories.

Sheer Determination and Female Brilliance

More crime and mystery solving by our heroines. Season One was a bit more, edge of your seat, however the women continue to be undaunted despite the forces that work against them.
