Indian Summers: Another Look

This past Sunday Indian Summers premiered. It was everything I had hoped. If you want to watch it, it will be available for 30 days from this post date HERE. You might need a little extra help to get it to play in your region. 😉 But then I am biased. I had such an overwhelming response to my photos of the main characters of this new UK Channel 4 drama, that I wanted to do a follow up with other photos. Today I am posting images of a few more actors that don’t have what some might say a main role. Yet, they still play a key place in the upcoming story line. You’ll also find some wider shots of the setting to give you a feel for Simla, India in 1932. I can’t say anything about what is going to unfold. But I can say that there is passion, suspense, intrigue and of course drama. I am posting photos but I’m not giving you any background to the scenes so you will have to use your imagination or better yet, you’ll have to watch the show to find out how these scenes relate.

Apparently, Channel4 checks your IP to see if you’re in England. Being in the US, I installed ExpatShield which connects me to a British IP and I was able to watch the show.

Thanks George. I used unblock-us.com, works like a charm. So what did you think of it?
There are some excellent images here Matt, congratulations and Happy (Chinese) New Year.
Some really great images here, transmitting the atmosphere as if we were present in it….
As social entrepreneur and founder of the Children At Risk Foundation and World of Children Humanitarian Award winner in 2014, I would love to hear more about your On Field Media Project to train the staff of non-profits. Sounds interesting..
Thanks for writing Gregory. I think I recall speaking with you on the set. You can learned more about the On Field Media Project at ofmp.org or email us at info@ofmp.org. I hope we can work together.
