The Doctor Blake Mysteries

There is currently a new Australian drama being shown here on the ABC at the moment, The Doctor Blake Mysteries, starring Craig McLachlan and Nadine Garner.

Set in the Australian town Ballarat in 1959. McLachlan plays Dr Lucien Blake, he has come back to take over his deceased father's medical practice. Not only is he the local Doctor, but also the police surgeon for the local police.

I'm really enjoying this show. Scripts, acting, production is wonderful and shows off an old world charm. Also wonderful to see Ballarat and surrounding areas in all their glory.

Titanic Style

I've had a strong interest in the White Star Liner the Titanic, for a long time. I love the history, scandal and of course the clothing of the Edwardian time. For Christmas I was given a beautiful book about the clothing on the Titanic. The book illustrates and explains in an in depth manner the styles of clothing that were worn by each class. Also one gets an insight on the history of famous fashion houses in Paris, London and New York of the time. It certainly is a must read book for anyone who has an interest in historical fashion and history.
