 Back before the days of equal rights for women in the workplace many women took on very important jobs on farms and in factories. It was part of the war effort in the 1940s. Men of working age were sent off to fight, leaving the women to fill in. Quite why things had to return to ‘normal’ afterwards is a mystery.
Factory Girls, episode two of Cold Case‘s second season, is about the death of one such lady in at munitions manufacturer in 1943. Was the guilty party one of the other ladies in a jealous rage, an embittered man not fit to fight for his country, a rival arms maker trying to close the factory, or does Lilly uncover a massive “BigArmour”conspiracy aimed at harming America’s war effort? It’s safe to say it is probably not the last one.
One of the guest stars in this episode is Jenna Fischer who went on to star in the US version of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s TV series The Office. Coincidently the show reaches the very end of a 9 series long run later this week.
249 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps from the episode can now be found in the Gallery.
  
 What happened to spring? England seems to have jumped straight from from a very long winter to summer. Not that summer officially starts for another few weeks either. It’s so confusing
Here on KM UK we’re going to make sure it is a long, hot summer with our Summer Of HD 2013. Long because we are covering the whole of Cold Case season 2 (as chosen by our readers), and hot because… well that shouldn’t need explaining 😉
Let’s start at the beginning with the first episode, titled The Badlands. A boring way to do it perhaps, but sometimes you’ve got to go with tradition. Lilly re-investigates one of her own cold cases and for Jeffries it has a personal element as the triple murder happened in a diner in his old neck of the woods.

 Three years ago today the final ever episodes of Cold Case aired in the USA. In 2010 the 2nd of May was a Sunday of course.
That day the last two episodes (Almost Paradise and Shattered) broadcast back-to-back brought an end to seven seasons totalling 156 shows. Sadly there are no signs of them re-opening up the case box on this one.
Since then only Danny Pino (Scotty Valens in CC) has returned to network television in a regular role. Danny has completed two seasons of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and the show has already been renewed for its 15th, due in the autumn. Most of the main cast of Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller), John Finn (John Stillman), Jeremy Ratchford (Nick Vera) and Thom Barry (Will Jeffries) have gone on to make guest starring appearances in shows like Emily Owens MD, The Good Wife, Suits, Harry’s Law and Person Of Interest. And that is just Tracie’s TV credits! As for the guys, they’ve have turned up in things such as Blue Bloods, Golden Boy, Hawaii Five-O, Homeland, House, It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, NCIS, Outlaw, Perception and Shameless. Sadly Kathryn has done nothing like that since Cold Case ended, limiting her work to a few movie roles. Here on KM UK we keep an eye on the non-Kathryn CC cast members’ careers and let you know in our regular Cold Case Cast Catch-up posts.
However, things could be very different by the end of this year. Both Kathryn and Tracie have worked on pilots which are hoping to be picked up to series for the new season in September/October. As we’ve covered extensively already in Kathryn’s case the show is a drama called Surgeon General and is aiming for slot in CBS’s schedules. Tracie’s show is Gothica and is for ABC. We will know if they are successful in the next couple of weeks.
 It’s a little while before we start KM UK’s Summer Of HD for 2013 but we are going to take a quick trip back to the season that formed the basis of the 2011 version.
Two years ago the Summer Of HD covered Cold Case season 4 but there were a few gaps. We managed to fill a couple of the holes last spring (here and here) but there was still one left. At the time we filled with some promos and on-set photos but didn’t manage to bring you new HD screencaps to go with them. We can correct that omission now.
Episode 14 of Cold Case‘s fourth season was called 8:03am and was a more Kat Miller-centric (Tracie Thoms) episode than normal so Lilly was a little in the background. The case involves two separate shootings of a child at their schools linked by the time of day in the title. Kat was the first officer on the scene of one them.
134 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps from the episode can now be found in the Gallery.
There will be more news on the KM UK Summer Of HD for 2013 in a few weeks. Stay tuned.
  
 Back at the beginning of January we reported that the French TV station RTL and the weekly Télé 2 semaines magazine were running various polls to determine the fans’ favourite actors, actresses and TV shows.
On Monday the results were posted and it was, sadly, not good news for Kathryn.
The foreign actress category that Kathryn featured in was won by Stana Katic from Castle. She took the prize by 4.5% from Jennifer Morrison of Once Upon A Time. Kathryn didn’t make the top 3. And we thought the French people really liked her.
Nathon Fillon, also of Castle, took first place in the equivalent male category, beating out competition from Hugh Laurie (House) and Simon Baker (The Mentalist). Clearly the French people do like Castle, and why not, it is a very good show.
However, Esprits Criminels, which we believe is Criminal Minds, just pipped Castle to the foreign TV show award by 0.5%. So close! As Richard Castle would probably say.
You can find all the results on the RTL website.
