The PBS website has added a new tiny photo to its published Masterpiece Mystery broadcast dates for Shadow In The North and a repeat of Ruby In The Smoke in September. Hopefully they will add more programme details soon.

Thank you to forum member EW who acquired for us a number of German TV magazines with promotional photographs of JJ, from the current broadcasting of Ruby In The Smoke and Shadow In The North on Arte TV. The scans are in the galleries now.

Imajrim spotted that both shows will be aired on PBS Mystery in September. This pdf has more details.

• Sep 21 The Ruby in the Smoke
• Sep 28 The Shadow in the North

Ruby In The Smoke will broadcast on Arte at 2100 hrs on 20th June 08

Shadow In The North will broadcast on Arte at 2100 hrs on 27th June 08

Ruby In The Smoke will air on ABC in Australia on 18th May 2008 at 8 30pm and will be followed on 25th May 2008 by Shadow In The North.

There is an article here about creating the adaptations. No mention of JJ.

Masterpiece Mystery will be showing Shadow In The North this summer. 

Thanks to Franka in the forum who let us know that the Sally Lockhart Mysteries boxset will be released in Holland on 14th February. It will be available to buy from here.

I was also reminded by the online article here, that although there were few reviews posted following the broadcast of Shadow In The North, most critics had highly recommended the show before it aired.

"There's been a big thumbs-up from the critics for this well acted and beautifully filmed one-off period drama, starring Billie Piper. A sequel to last year's The Ruby In The Smoke, Piper returns as fearless Victorian heroine Sally Lockhart, a financial wiz and rather clever sleuth...Quality entertainment for adults and older children. Highly recommended. "
