Great series.
I saw the original Foyle's War from about twenty years ago.
The problem with all BBC productions today is that they demand a quota of non-whites i.e. blacks on all their shows. That means if you're watching some BBC series about life in a small English or Scottish town in the middle of nowhere, there will be a requisite number of black residents.
In the past twenty years I've been through numerous small English and Scottish towns and never saw one black person. Even in London I didn't see that many. Didn't go through Brixton.
The difference was pretty notable in one of my favorite mystery shows "Midsomer Murders." Set in an out of the way part of England, the early series with John Nettles saw few black performers. Because there just aren't that many black people outside of the large cities in England and Scotland.
The recent series with Neil Dudgeon have numerous blacks and other non-whites as main characters.
The BBC is also pushing a pro-homosexual agenda. Tough to watch.
So, it's difficult to watch a modern BBC produced program even if the plot looks good. The BBC is pushing a woke agenda. Just not believable.
