I'll watch this with interest, i've heard so many good reviews about it, yet to see an episode though.

looks like we will add it to our list of things to watch. Quite a bit of catching up tho!

Very addictive viewing, would definately recommend getting/hiring the box set (the 1st one we got from the library) as you can't wait to see what happens next.

We watched the first few series (getting recordings from a friend with Sky for the later ones). Initially they were quite gripping, partly due to the format, but we found the plots gradually became more and more ridiculous as each series came along and the format became really predictable. Can't remember how many series we saw before giving up - maybe 4 or 5?

oh yeah pure escapism - and some very far fetched plots
Mind you for even more bizarre plots try prison Break another firm fave
for more believable stories got to be Greys Anatomy. Shark and I quite like NCIS all the forensic science stuff

We have seen all of NCIS now (and love it) and a lot of Shark (they talk so fast tho) Have only dipped into Greys Anatomy, you need to watch a few to get the hang of the characters.

I loved the first one and really liked the second one, but then got a bit bored. Never watch it now.
