BBС Breakfast interview about George Gently.
Many thanks to Janet to whom I owe this footage!

[@naturegirl130]

Love George Gently. Lee Ingleby is a brilliant actor. We need to see much more of him on T.V. Thanks a million for posting this greenheart.

[@shendaraalshedir1933]

Love Martin Shaw- handsome man with a lovely soothing voice, and have enjoyed Lee Ingleby in everything l've seen him in. Great UK series & GORGEOUS filming locations in Ireland!!👍🇨🇦☘️⚜️

[@wordsigns7841]

This series is amazing, each season gets better, the finale is amazing, and Martin Shaw is the most incredible actor you’ll see he will make you cry at the end.

[@leonacw6887]

.... so true ... just watched this series on netflix and watch the last one last night in tears.... 😥

[@hypno59]

I agree. Lee Ingleby is a great actor and not to be ignored.

[@jasonwldes7636]

I Gree Lee Should have Show wIth The Guy he PlayIn

[@kathysmith9233]

We just finished this series in the United States on Amazon Prime Video and now my husband is grieving one of his favorite characters of fiction! Seriously. What a show! Just wonderful!

[@hazelpollittside6344]

I love martin shaw especially as judge john deed and george gently

[@compka93]

Love the show I have watched each series twice - on Acorn TV in America - I just love Lee and Martin - superb actors

[@jonathangoldberg3892]

Excellent series! Both Martin Shaw's acting and the George Gently character are fantastic. I love the, gritty North Umbrian 60s setting. Very noir.

[@cathological]

I've loved Lee Ingleby's acting for years. It's great to see him performing increasingly high profile tv roles.

[@markxist]

Excellent! Thanks, the great Lee Ingleby back on our screens, and of course the great Martin Shaw too

[@thesummerland6165]

Such an excellent series, I prefer UK series to american ones, so well written and acted

[@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853]

Any programme starring Martin Shaw is rarely dull! ❤

[@2xt2009]

How time flies... It's quite emotional to watch this interview again after the final episode.

[@MadMaisie50]

Thanks for this love George Gently. Martin and Lee compliment each other so well. Loved Martin's comment "I'm a cult". Priceless!

[@lorrainehodder8913]

"cult" wasn't the word, rather another more basic one!

[@Fiawordweaver]

I watch it every year. I love this show.

[@Dave-yt1kw]

Excellent show......

[@armanidavincci]

[@kathrynmcdonald2110]

[@dorothyfraser996]

I saw the last episode of season 5 last night and I started googling this morning to see if they survived. Phew! Season 6 must be scheduled for North America next year. Love both of these guys. Keep the episodes coming!

[@AppaloosaDreams]

I love the show and love these two guys

[@suephil]

Thank you so much, it's great to see the incredibly talented Lee Ingleby being interviewed!

[@HappyPumpkins31]

Absolutely love George Gently. I just series1-3 on DVD can't wait to get the 4th one.. It's brilliantly written.

[@KmT81]

Loved Shaw in the Professionals very much!

[@jasonwldes7636]

Marty Totally brIllIant who Should SIr marty Shaw

[@45to37]

Lee Ingleby is amazing--love the contrast between him and Martin.

[@jasonwldes7636]

There Great Team

[@aurora.a6645]

I like very much these two characters, very different but complementary. Shaw is a myth, Ingleby very good, youthful, instinctive, cute!

[@aurora.a6645]

And very british, too!!

[@lmalmaison]

Oh my god, thank you, I love Lee Ingleby, he is an excellent actor

[@UncleBrommel]

Gently is excellent!! I love it!! And I adore both Lee Ingleby and Martin Shaw. They are great actors and they make a good team!!

[@kanumbra]

[@Catjoe12]

Bril, Greenheart! Thanks so much!

[@jlprizm]

So glad there's more of this show coming up! I watched all the seasons up to 6 on Netflix and had to see Season 7 as well and I'm so excited that it's still going. Gently is the man. Also I never found Lee attractive on the show but he's adorable in this interview.

[@hood3074]

Excellent show, I watched it in the USA on 'Accorn tv". Great show.

[@83RockaRolla]

greenheart45 your absolutely awesome. Thanks for all those great and rare Martin Shaw interviews! This is one of my favourites (although the interviewers are a bit... well "the Professionals was that late 60s or early 70s"?!?! And as they already mention "Life on Mars" they could have mentioned that Lee Inglyby starred in it, I think it was the 8th episode of series 1) 'cause it's great to see Martin Shaw and Lee Inglaby in an interview together.

[@alexisnewell3672]

Loved the 60's Loved IGG nothing like it n the father figure id say with George n John so touching As servilians so to speak Martin n Lee u are beautiful n special ❤❤😙

[@rickhughes954]

Great scripts, location filming & great acting with believable characters........... excellent series ... currently being repeated.

[@JSB1882]

This the "George Gently" series was incredible. I liked Morse too - but the writing is superior on Gently.

[@greenheart45]

Oh yes, there will be! They're now filming the first two of 4 more episodes. :)

[@Fiawordweaver]

Im 70. I’ve watched all 8 seasons more than 10 times all way through. I cry every 8 th season finale. Even though I know it’s acting. It’s brilliantly acted with a brilliant script. Along with that said, I had an abusive father and so wished i had a father like the George Gently character. Only female in a family of six. I grieve the George Gently character. I’ve never grieved my father. Was relieved he died at 76.

[@debradireen3625]

Love these two I was around in the 60’s too and the series is great viewing

[@ilikesmike]

Thanks so much for uploading this!

[@yvettekopp2450]

Best mystery show being produced at present. I levitate towards cerebral shows. Thanks. I am saddened that "The Hour" was canceled after 2nd season.

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

Me too. 'The Hour' was a great show that should have been given the opportunity to build a loyal audience and come to a satisfactory conclusion, but the BBC axed it before they had the chance. I've since heard that the show's stars Romola Garai, Dominic West and Ben Whishaw were understandably very disappointed (as were it's many viewers) that the series wasn't coming back for a third run, so the BBC were definitely very shortsighted in axing it. Ahhh....well! At least I do still have both series of 'The Hour' on DVD to watch whenever I like.

[@0NotSoFar0]

@greenheartVids Thank you for the quick answear :) And: Yey! That are good news :) Hope it won't take to long that they are aired in germany is well

[@Sasha1939]

Martin Shaw is the best actor in any detective series (well, as good as Jeremy Brett as Sherlock). I've never seen Shaw on PBS and what a loss for us all. I write lettersto our local PBS, asking why they've never shown any Martin Shaw series - but no response. "Zen" would have been just as good, but they only ran it for oneseason, saying it was too expensive and difficult to film in Italy. Another loss.Americans seemed to think "Morse" was the greatest detective. Not so much.

[@sarahkinsey5434]

My favorite PBS British crime shows are Morse, Lewis, Endeavour, Midsomer Murder, Foyle's War, Poirot, George Gently, Vera, Shetland, Father Brown, and Luther. I really like the period dramas

[@marykuga4589]

I love this show. I watch it over and over again. I can do the dialog along with George and John. I love the humor they slip in and Lee is so great. I love watching him. You can see the devil in him but then his soft side comes out. My favorite though was when he was fishing and he wasn’t happy at all. I also loved when he was telling Phil Davis, another great actor, asking him if the boy he killed begged for his life and insinuated that Phil killed his own son. That was priceless acting on Lee’s part. I can not watch the last 2 episodes. I do not like the way it ended and it’s too upsetting for me, I love these two characters too much.

[@sharmilaghosh5679]

This series is amazing .And the camaraderie between this two is great ,bitter sweet .The witty and humorous lines are great.

[@pederlettstroem980]

Father and son relationship. Yes. But I really enjoyed when Gently knocked out Baccus in the boxing ring in one episode. Great actors! Great written episodes.

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

'Not me hooter, sir! Please not me hooter!' 😁

[@2xt2009]

so sad to say goodbye...

[@markxist]

I hope there will be more of these

[@lindanorris2455]

YOU guys are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo adorable!

[@naturegirl130]

Me too violetta, he is so cute and yes I agree, he's a brilliant actor too.

[@irma8692]

I see this serie George Gently now in the Netherlands on bbc first and i am addicted i think. My opinion is that everything is ok about it. The time setting, the class struggle, the music, and the acting! I really feel irritation about the general behaviour from John Bacchus ( lol ) , but i do like that person too. I wonder how it continues 😉

[@Yorkmum]

that's brilliant news - thank you!

[@keithwright4921]

Fabulous cop program,love it,waching now,on Drama,

[@sozanmarshall2832]

Please please someone make a great series like this

[@Catjoe12]

Ya know, Martin Shaw is still every bit as cute as he ever was. And of course, Lee Ingleby is utterly flawless. :)

[@greenheart45]

Four more episodes are to be aired on BBC One in 2009. There were newsreports that the first 2 of them were filmed in Dublin in late 2008.

[@jochenstossberg5427]

It was a great show and still is one of the best. It's the screenplays. They're brilliant. Lee Ingleby constantly steals the show though, but Martin Shaw lets him - which is what makes them such a great on screen team. You believe they get along. This is a show that you can watch over again. I just wish Martin Shaw would get his front teeth fixed!!

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

Perhaps he's got a chip on his shoulder about it! 😀

[@steph5379]

Loved this show its a shame shows like this have been replaced by the rubbish game shows that not everyone wants to watch. bring back George gentle Judge john Deed and heartbeat and the royal

[@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853]

❤

[@spasticwalrus]

I am in love with Lee Ingleby!! I especially love Nicholas Nickleby with him playing Smike. Saddest death ever!!!

[@karlholm1]

Great series! A lot of smoke though.

[@greenheartVids]

@0NotSoFar0 They're currently filming a couple of episodes to be aired later this year. :)

[@Yorkmum]

George Gently was brilliant - will they be making any more episodes? And why is it taking so long to come out on DVD? Martin Shaw is still awesome!

[@greenheartVids]

@0NotSoFar0 You're welcome. :) Hope you'll see them soon.

[@antoninacawley7949]

lee ingleby , his character in inspector george gently was a "smoking idiot" on the ones I've seen

[@mandead]

I always really used to fancy Sian.

[@brianmarshall4753]

Birmingham actor Martin shaw received a walk of star on Broad street pavement very soon

[@blacksheepsquadron91]

:) no problem

[@xXgorillazboosh11Xx]

hahahaha love george gently

[@surferdudette19]

Stan Shunpike ! :D

[@flannerymonaghan-morrs4740]

Lee looks like a mixture between Edward norton and clay Aiken here....

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

I've noticed Lee Ingleby also has a Lennonesque type nose, though. No doubt with the right wig and make-up, he could probably look a lot like Lennon. I wonder if Lee has ever been approached to play him either on stage or screen?

[@0NotSoFar0]

Does anybody know if there are new episodes?

[@blacksheepsquadron91]

i'm with you there ( about the crush on him)

[@tripjet999]

Didn't watch this pathetic series for long! Show is FULL of tobacco-drug use! Ugh! All TV and movies TOBACCO-DRUG FREE, NOW!

[@MOGGS1942]

" Pathetic series ". 😂😂😂 If you want " pathetic ", your idiotic, pathetic post fills the bill.

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

The series is set in Northumberland during the 1960s when lots of people smoked, so the producers of the show had to be authentic, otherwise it would've come across as unrealistic. Anyway, the cigarettes that they use on it are herbal. What's more, just in case you happen to be wondering, I'm a lifelong non-smoker myself. I just don't seem to have the same puritanical views as you. That's all.

[@mattbellamysexy]

Lee Ingleby is Adorable! and a great ACTOR!
