Aye. he's a Scotsman, which, of course, I knew, but ignored since he tends to work in the English sector of the UK these days. I'd agree that the whole remake idea seems pointless here, exacerbated by the presence of the same actor as the lead. He assures a fine emotional center for the redone series. But how can they improve on it by doing the same plot in the states with the same lead actor? It's seems like a "been there - done that" situation, especially if they stick to the story of the original. And I'd assume Tennant and Olivia Coleman are signed to reprise their roles in Series 2 of "Broadchurch," For DT, this could mean all-Broadchurch, all the time - for at least a year.
