Inside the 1980s Newsroom: BBC'S "The Newsreader"
I have to admit I did not expect to enjoy The Newsreader on BBC iPlayer as much as I have. I am currently on season two, and it has become one of those shows I genuinely look forward to watching. The series is set in the 1980s, which immediately gives it a distinctive style. From the clothes and hairstyles to the shoulder pads and the neon lights, everything feels authentic. But beyond the look, what really draws me in are the storylines and the characters.
