They have already started the repeats.
What is on tonight at 23:20 is Series 1 Episode 5.

petes

Episode five and six from series one on tonight. Excellent stuff.

sweetie

They only showed one episode on monday so they should have 4 and 5 tonight. Digiguide had it wrong I think.

Triple episodes last night. Two, three and four.

kraggy

i always thought it was a shame they didn't continue to a third series. on the other hand, it's the monumental way in which it did end that provides many of the fond memories...

Bugger, I missed the last one. Damn you 'Waking life' on RTE2! Did anyone tape this on dvd or vhs? I'd like to borrow it!

Basq

Brillant show.. think both seasons are available on DVD fairly cheap online somewhere!

Remember seeing a link of it a while back.. will try and dig it up.

EDIT: Ahhhh... offer over. They were £17.99 (or less with vouchers) at HMV until recently but have popped back up to £29.99!

sweetie

Thanks, I'd set the hd dvd recorder till the schedules fecked me up. I'll track down the missing episode...

kraggy

Always like Egg meself... despised Anna and Miles by the end of it!

petes

Egg. Didn't mind Warren's character either though. Damn falling asleep at 10:45 last night. Missed both.

kraggy

I like Miles and Anna i have to say though Miles would shade it at the mo.

he's such a sarcastic wancer sometimes he's great.

anna can be very witty and sarky too which i always like.

all characters have their own strenghts and their isn't one character who you could say is weak.

best drama of all time in my books. no exaggeration.

Ferdi was weak as fook. Hes not even in reunion:)

Basq

Yeah, Ferdi was quite a crap character!

sweetie

Kira (Warren's cousin) was excellent too as was the blonde girl who Milly fought with and Egg's Dad? all of the supporting characters were very well written. Anyone record tuesdays episode (no 4)?

was thinking mostly of the front runners but yeah, ferdi was a bit lame. his pauses before lines sometimes were a bit annoying.

gonna buy the dvd soon and watch it all in one weekend with a crate and other supplies.
