UK Easter TV Spectacular

For the first time in many years we have an Easter holiday jam-packed full of great TV Drama this weekend, and indicates that 2010 could be a great year in British Television.

First, on Good Friday, Ashes to Ashes begins it third and final series at 9.00pm BBC 1, and hopefully starts to bring together some answers to the many mysteries that both this program and it's predecessor - Life on Mars began a few years ago.

Then on Saturday Prime Time, Matt Smith triumphantly starts his amazing era as the 11th Doctor in Doctor Who at 6.20pm also on BBC 1.

On Easter Sunday, two TV Classics come head-to-head with TV Specials at 8.00pm. On BBC 1, Mystery Drama favourite Jonathan Creek returns for another fascinating oddity to solve, bringing together once more Alan Davies and Sheridan Smith.

On ITV 1, David Jason returns to play, for the last time, Detective Inspector Jack Frost in legendary Crime Drama - A Touch of Frost as he struggles to bring down a Drug dealer. This final story however, consists of two 2-hour episodes, the first of which is on Sunday, and the other concludes on Easter Monday, and also begins at 8.00pm (ITV 1).

Even without chocolate, this Easter looks to be amazing on the small screen. Happy holidays!
