Speakerine.  A drama set in 1960's Paris that deals with the Ministry of Information and its television broadcast, which I assume is parallel to the BBC.  The "Speakerine" of the title refers to the main female announcer.  She and her family are drawn into this drama that includes insights into contemporaneous politics, relations between the sexes, and the Algerian war.  We've seen 2 episodes so far.  It's not as good as Engrenages, which I loved, but so far, it's not bad.   With Gregory Fitousi, aka "Mr. Handsome," who seems to be in lots of stuff, from Mr. Selfridge, to Engrenages, to this.  He's in lots of other films and tv shows that I haven't seen so he's one of those guys who "gets a lot of work."
