TV Review: BBC America Remembers Formative Years of ‘White Heat’
9 May 2012 7:21 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – “White Heat” has echoes of “The Big Chill” in that it’s at least somewhat about people brought together by tragedy who are forced to then remember highlights and controversies of their past and how they continue to impact their present. And the screenwriting is clearly trying to extrapolate the journeys of these characters into something to be said about the social and cultural growth of their country over the last five decades. The intensity and melodrama of that kind of writing often leaves character and subtlety by the side of the road and so “White Heat” is an interesting show but not a particularly entertaining one.
TV Rating: 3.5/5.0
“White Heat” is a six-episode series that hits highlights of the last forty-seven years in U.K. history by charting them through the lives of a group of friends. It’s essentially a long, complex flashback as the show is »

White Heat: behind the scenes on the BBC2 drama

Emine Saner meets the flatmates at the centre of White Heat, Paula Milne's 1960s drama for BBC2
Everything on set is quiet except for a plink-plink-plink sound. "This is a carpet warehouse," explains Elinor Day, the producer. "The rain comes in, but whenever they fix it, it finds somewhere else to come in." It is one of those days when it doesn't feel as if the rain will ever stop.
The actors are hurried from the vast warehouse, where the sets have been built, to their trailers in the car park under huge umbrellas. A great puddle has formed in front of the catering truck and members of the film crew and extras line up to take their turn leaping over it to get to the double decker bus where they eat their lunch behind the steamed-up windows.
The first episode of White Heat was broadcast last week and »

Juliet Stevenson lends gravitas to drama White Heat, while Kate Humble is no Brian Cox in cosmic science series Orbit
White Heat (BBC2) | iPlayer

Qpr: The Four Year Plan (BBC2) | iPlayer
Grief, bereavement, anguish: these are emotions on which Juliet Stevenson, with her resilient mouth and watery eyes, could apply for dramatic copyright. She wouldn't, though, because you just know that she's too selfless to corner any market, even one in suffering.
Still, if the part calls for a middle-aged woman stoically grappling with heartbreak, who else is a casting director going to call? In White Heat Stevenson played Charlotte, a woman about 10 years older than the actress's own age, who returns to the student house she lived in five decades before. The occupant (whose identity has yet to be revealed) had died and Charlotte was plunged into mournful reflection.
That's not much of a plunge for Stevenson, »

It's no Mad Men, but this tale of 60s student flatmates is shaping up nicely
Ithink there's going to have to be a moratorium on shows set in the 1960s until we've all had a chance to let the memory of Mad Men fade. Let time sully its perfection just a little before you serve us up another.
There was much to recommend White Heat (BBC2), the six-part series by award-winning writer Paula Milne, about a gang of 60s flatmates who are brought back together 40 years later by the death of one (we know not which yet) in the first episode, and whose stories unfold in flashback. The set-up is ripe and luscious: seven very different lives (possibly chosen for precisely that reason by their landlord, Jack, as a social experiment – though there is just as much chance that he just wants to bang one of the girls.
