Life on Mars Season Two

LIFE ON MARS SEASON TWO

The worlds greatest TV series continures with its second and final season on the ABC on Thursdays @ 8.30pm. DCI Gene Hunt has already, quite rightly, enterted the pantheon of classic TV characters. The show of course stars John Simm as Detective Inspector Sam Tyler who after being the target of a hit and run in 2006 wakes up in 1973, the whole series gears up to Sam trying to get back to his own time but he isn't sure if he is in a coma or has really travelled back in time.

This week Hunt is convinced a serial killer he thought he'd sent down in the late sixties may still be at large. For Sam (John Simm), the victim, a Beauvoir beauty rep like his Aunt Heather, triggers vivid recollections of childhood.

Utilising his knowledge of modern surveillance techniques, Sam is led to middle class suburbia where a local car dealer is throwing private parties employing the poorly paid make-up girls to 'help out' when the lights go down and the wife-swapping begins.

Sam and Annie (Liz White) go undercover as a young swinging couple to infiltrate the world of vol-au-vents, Blue Nun and lava lamps.
