Anyone else hopelessly addicted to watching this great series?

katinka · 11-06-2003, 04:15 AM

don't know it over here...is it on BBC1 or 2? what night?

Smithy · 11-06-2003, 04:34 AM

It was on BBC2 and BBC Choice (or whatever it's called now) on Sunday nights. My friend started giving me VCD's halfway through the 2nd series, and is now getting series 3 which is just airing in the states, it's complete torture having to wait a whole week between episodes lol

just finished downloading the series 3 premiere but didn't get a chance to watch it yet - tremendous television programme!

katinka · 11-06-2003, 05:01 AM

so the 3th series is still on BBC2 (we have that here you know)? what is it about, explain a little bit you make me curious

Smithy · 11-06-2003, 05:17 AM

It's a series staring Keifer Sutherland, who plays a guy called Jack Bauer, head of the Counter Terrorism Unit, basically each series follows a day in his life and consists of 24 episodes covering an hour each, the whole thing is presented in real time, and is real edge of your seat viewing, cos they usually manage to leave each episode on a real cliff-hanger. be warned, once you've watched one episode you'll be hooked lol. The new series won't be on the BBC until February or March next year, but if you have a nice fast net connection you can find episodes on Suprnova of the first two series (I recommend starting from series one because it is that good

) and the 3rd series which has jsut started on Fox in the states [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

It absolutely kicks CSI's ass, as does Law & Order SVU

Sionna · 11-06-2003, 02:39 PM

Law and Order SVU is pretty cool though,havent seen that in ages!

Smithy · 11-06-2003, 04:03 PM

Hmmm not watched either of them, I'm useless at remembering when programmes are on the telly. I did start watching Waking The Dead, but just my luck to get hooked on the 2nd from last episode of the series
