    I think I'll treat myself to a rewatch from the start in preparation for this.

    Well needed with all the characters and throwbacks. Have often found myself thinking "Who the feck is that?"

    I know showing on one of the ITV channels but they not on sky

    ITV4 are showing series 5 right now, with the death of ITV Encore I presume series 6 will be on ITV so back where it began.

    The possibility of a spin off series for Paige has occurred to me after most of these trailers.


    If Paige lives..

    The 'Tear Down This Wall' speech happened in 1987. That's quite the time jump forward. Not just that but the speech was written as a challenge to the newly appointed Gorbachev who was already telling the world that he planned a new era of openess and restructuring. The speech was also largely ignored politically and publicly until the aftermath of the gates being opened over two years later. So is that a clue that the series is going to go all the way to the fall of the wall? It certainly seems so.

    Is there any way to legally watch The Americans (season 5) in Ireland in HD? Amazon won't let me buy it, and I don't have Apple TV. It's driving me nuts. Love this show.

    When I used an old sky box to watch the freeview channels, I was able to record programmes on a video recorder that I connected between the Sky box and the TV. I'm sure that you could do the same with a DVD recorder.

    (Tune the recorder into the feed from the Sky box. Set the recorder to record the sky channel between 1.50am and 2.45am on Wednesday morning, and make sure the Sky box is on ITV4.)

    great news re RTE showing SEASON 5.

    just a bit of shame its a year behind, with season 6 starting in the US at end of
    month.

    have watched up to ep 9 on ITV 4.

    They have wrapped shooting i.e. 6.10.

    Proper trailer time.

    Oh I've been imagining this very scenario for weeks now. You can just picture his face! Can't wait for it now.

    Just a reminder that season 6 ep1 airs in the US tonight :-)

    I've been looking forward to this for months!

    ITV 4 are showing Season 6 from next Wednesday at 10pm.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    I lost touch with this after the first series, as ITV snuck it to an obscure slot and then to ITV Encore which is (was) a SKY only channel, with ITV4 now having it is it worth jumping back in? Will I be confused by years having passed, is everyone still utterly untrustworthy?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,758 ✭✭✭Pelvis


    Excellent start to the season. That episode was better than all eps in season 5 combined.


  • Registered Users Posts: 191 ✭✭charkee


    great news VG1 .just finished season 5 on ITV4 ,new Topic for season 6 ITV 4 pace?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,501 ✭✭✭✭Slydice


    TRY HARDER PHILIP!

    That was great. Got borderline a bit too much with the music. Throwing something into scenes that didn't need it. They musta got a bunch more cash than they expected for their budget.

    *takes Note*:
    DO NOT FUKC WITH PAIGE
    ! :eek:


    After that..

    Ah no.. not
    Philip versus Elizabeth
    :(
    Although if previous seasons are anything to go by..
    Philip dies to save one or all the family
    *starts preparing*

    6.01

    One of the best episodes they've done overall. Music rights must have cost a fortune.

    You could almost peel Elizabeth's exhaustion off the screen, serious amount of ops for her and the concentration required. 'Dead Hand' won't be the trickiest part of this year, it'll be strain at home. That bench chat, that 1am exchange. So much of the episode was 'it's all in the family', basically. And future generations. We have a better sense of Paige's world view, though not much new and she's still fairly green.

    And come on, who doesn't enjoy a full name Arkady Ivanovich/Oleg Burov door greeting?

    Philip with his car porn. Line dancing?!

    You know the art as well caught my eye.

    All the paintings kinda looked like you were seeing a person
    .. who was on the other side of a window
    .. and that the window was dirty or had rain going down it or both!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,363 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    I had a quick glance at some of the reviews there, few if any focused on the art. Powerful scene.

    What year did Season 5 end? I noticed the calendar on Phillip's office wall said Oct 87.

    Press/interviews started to ramp up in recent weeks suggesting a 3 year time jump.

    Missed these I must admit.
