Not seen another thread about it so I thought i'd start one.
Does anybody else watch it? (Sunday nights 9pm C4)
I bloody love it, the ginger guy has done a pretty good job with his yank accent and the plot just keeps you (well me anyway) guessing. Is he a bady, a goody? how's it all related etc.
Thrilling stuff and well worth a watch.

Damien Lewis, he was Richard Winters in Band of Brothers, I genuinely thought he was American until seeing him in an interview a few years after first seeing BoB.
I take it that its good then Si?
Yes, it is a pretty good alternative to 24. Looking forward to 2nd season.

Its slow and seemed to be going nowhere.... until the other night, when it just won a reprieve.
series two you say? so the story in this series will be un-resolved to drag it on more? FFS! - just deleted off Sky planner, more 24 / LOST / interminable pointless series from US of ********.
Tell your story, be good, end.
:evil:

Aye that's him Matt, I got put off of him when i was unfortunate enough to see dreamcatcher years ago.
I really like it, you can get it on 4OD but i think it's too late to watch the first episode.
Tell you what, i'll buy the box set when it comes out and lend you it, never seen BoB but heard loads of people rave on about it.

There you go then we'll do a trade pal I'll lend you BoB -
Its a right of passage pal honestly, you've got to watch it but make sure you've got some beers in.
You'll need to cheer some of the stuff you see and other bits you'll need to take a swig so the misses doesnt see you're choking up a bit ;) quality stuff.

BTW, It doesn't end at the last episode. They have kept it open in order to get a second series
Yes you have the answers. But the whole thing get turned in the last 5 minutes

I didn't realise it was the end of the series on sunday?
That's genuinely annoying.

The 1st season has 12 episodes, if you are watching it on Channel 4, there will be another 6.
