Hey, Brits..."Ta..."

[Doctor Phibes]

I've never seen the show, but 'Ta' is normally short for 'thankyou' -

I think its kind of a short goodbye.

I guess it could be short for 'ta-ra', which means goodbye. Ta-ta is also good-bye.

I'll need to start watching it - I've been at a bit of a loose end since finishing The Expanse for the second time. I like a good British crime show.

It's very good. There's an arc that spans all 5 seasons you can watch on HULU. But, every season is pretty stand-alone with a "hey wait until we tell you next year!" ending. Exceptionally "procedural."

If you have a hard time with the accent, I recommend turning on the subtitles.

I've just watched Series 1, Episode 1, and I think I may be hooked.

I managed to struggle through without subtitles, although that Irish bloke has a bit of a brogue.

“Ta da” is used by exhibitionists.

LOL

it gets a much more interesting.

Without spoiling, just pay attention to “H”.

Maybe in California.

There are no exhibitionists in England.

You are right. I misremembered.
