Where Yesterday Meets the Breeze

Founded in 1919 by Walter Owen Bentley in Cricklewood, London, the Bentley motor company quickly established a reputation for exceptional performance and engineering, famously dominating the 24 Hours of Le Mans throughout the 1920s with the help of the legendary 'Bentley Boys'. Following financial difficulties during the Great Depression, the company was acquired by Rolls-Royce in 1931, moving production to Derby and later to its iconic factory in Crewe, Cheshire, in 1946. After decades of being closely associated with Rolls-Royce, Bentley was purchased by the Volkswagen Group in 1998, a transition that sparked a significant revitalisation of the brand's identity as a manufacturer of luxury, high-performance grand tourers that continues to define its legacy today.

Two things makeThe Rookiestand out from other procedurals on network TV. First, there's its title; the titular "rookie," John Nolan (Nathan Fillion), is 45 years old (and based on a real-life story). The second is the cast; in addition to Fillion, the main cast includes plenty of talented actors, including Melissa O'Neil as Nolan's fellow officer, Lucy Chen. Lucy's character arc throughout The Rookie has been pretty compelling. But before the ABC series, O'Neil wound up playing another complex, compelling character in the SyFy series Dark Matter β€” not to be confused with Apple TV+'s sci-fi series of the same name β€” and her performance is just one of the many things that make it a standout in the science fiction genre.
