    Well, that was an interestng opener, bit of a slow start, but they have six episodes for the arc this season, I do hope it findsits feet soon, overall I liked it.

    some character development was more solid than others, I like the PTSD direction they are taking with Jem and the blue oblivion 'terrorists'

    but Amy's storyline seemed a bit shallow, and Gaz and the minister are a bit to cliched for an otherwise well developed world

    anyone else watch it?

    Can Season 1 be found anywhere. Tried on BBC player but it won't allow me in as I have an ISP outside the UK?

    Anyone know where else it can be found?

    There's a season 2? Amazing!

    There's a moment in the 1st, which still sticks with me -
    it is the father talking about when he came across his son's body.

    If you're asking for somewhere to download/stream it illegally, don't.

    I watched it on tv, but you might be able to pick it up cheap on DVD or rent it from Xtravision or something.

    Well, season 2 definitley found its feet in ep 4, I am now genuinley intrigued by the plot, up to now it was Good, but last nights episode pushed it up a notch.

    That extra time to develop characters is really paying off

    Yeah 1and 2 are fairly much exposition episodes, 3 puts the pedal to the metal and the turbo finally spools up about half way through 4 with the first Real twist in the plot. Like I said I thought it was plodding along predictably and then wham, blindsider, wtf is that.

    it's not no, shame really, i'd liked to have watched it there myself, making time for tv is a pain in the hole sometimes

    here's the site for it though http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b042ckss

    Sky+ is a fantastic thing.

    That said tho you do have to be aware of the initial screening.

    I was hoping someone else had seen this as I really wanted to discuss the ending

    Does anyone know if this show is coming back for the third round? It's excellent, so I certainly hope so.
