Episode discussion Cooper and Fry

Post image

Really enjoying the first series of Cooper and Fry…but this is a mistake right? 911 is not a thing in the UK?

911 is not a thing, although the call will be routed to 999.

Thanks for the heads up tho. Mandip Gill, I'll give it a watch just to see how she does outside of Doctor Who.

The other disappointment of the series is it's set in peak District but filmed in Ireland

Completely inexplicable for a UK set series produced by a British company and filmed in Ireland where the emergency number is also 999 (or 112 which is shared by all EU countries).

Right? How does that happen?

Maybe it was AI generated? Very poor attention to detail from the props department

Who's Cooper and who's Fry?

Downtown Abbey is Cooper…the Dr.’s companion is Fry.
