Isn't this episode 8, not 9? And didn't Sky Onc NOT show 6 & 7 together, so episode 7 is on November 18th (this Sunday) with episode 8 (this episode) to be shown on November 25th?

Yep you're right, Bang & Burn is Episode 8, not sure about the Sky & RTE viewing dates...

Basq · 13-11-2007 04:04PM

Fixed episode number.. not aware of the Sky / RTE dates so just appended 7 days onto them from the previous week. If they're not correct, i apologise!

Gingervitis · 13-11-2007 04:06PM

Pretty good, seems Linc fancys himself the new Michael... wonder if he's gonna rescue him in transit?

Mahone-gibbering. Starting to get a small bit annoying...Not sure what else he's gonna contribute..

What's Gary Millar gonna do now?

hows Linq gonna know micheals being transfered?

true, but he must have something super duper planned with Sucre, renting a house, recording gunshots, maybe it'll be the most foolproof do-something-cool yet seen in the series!:D

Damn, it's just getting good and it's going on 2 month hiatus.
Another indirect result of the strike.
There were originally going to be 12/13 episodes aired before christmas, but because 24 is on an indefinite hiatus, they need to use Prison Break in January.

lukin · 13-11-2007 08:15PM

I knew Mahone was going to end up back in Sona, the eps where he was being transferred were just screen-filler. I'm getting to like this new ruthless Linc;that's two eps in a row he's killed someone.
The company have no use for L.J. now so why didn't they just get rid of him?
Maybe now that the helicopter rescue went arseways they will go back to using Scofield to break out Whistler again? I presume he's not going to be actually transferred.
Btw, wasn't there some weird lesbo vibe in that scene between Sofia and Susan or was it just me?
I thought at one stage Susan was gonna start necking her!

Transferred...via a bullet...into a grave!! mwuhahahaha. then the whole series would revolve around Lincoln trying to break everyone else out to save his son!

I should be a writer, I'd show those strikers...:rolleyes:

alright ep... i had no idea it was on hiatus til jan until right now! daaamn!
and then someone said massive cliffhanger and it took me a while to remember what that cliffhanger was, and then i remembered and i was like "oh... that." not that good at all!

was this hiatus business in season 1 and 2? if so, i spoiled myself terribly watching them in the space of about 3 weeks on dvd

The RTÉ TWO date is correct, the Sky date is not, it should be the 25th November.

I was pretty impressed that they actually showed Mike take his shirt off. They painted that tattoo onto his back for the all of 2 seconds that he had his shirt off.

A good episode none the less with loads of action. Wondering now where Mike is going to be transferred to.

It was also odd that baldy would allow Mike to be killed by Gary. I thought Mike was their pet project or something?

DeadParrot · 14-11-2007 01:59PM

balls.....
I think my ep finished just before the cliffhanger moment

It was an alright episode, i kinda wanted more from it. i found myself asking questions, allot of questions. Mainly because i want to know why the company aborted the attack/rescue ?

When Whistler dropped why didnt they just lower so he could try to climb up again?

Not really. As Michael said himself they didn't need him anymore when they decided to break Whistler out by themselves. But they now may go back to Michael seeing as that plan failed.
I thought it was a bit ridiculous that the Sona army guys couldn't identify who was on the roof after, even though they were swinging around in the air for ages in full view of everyone during the assault.

I was on the edge of my seat roaring "GO ON! KISS! GO ON! GO ON!!!" but it didn't happen.

I liked the Spanish version of "Don't Fear The Reaper" at the start of this episode. I hope they bring out an album of those tunes.

Looks like Susan's goose is cooked now that the breakout failed. Wonder if she'll have to go on the run from the Company? It will be interesting to see what Linc's plan is too but it'll be a pain in the arse to wait until January. :mad:

why didnt the helicopter just rise upwards and take the away whilst they hung on?

I hope they don't do something stupid like having her team up with Linc and Sucre to free Michael à la

Kellerman last season

Ep 8 is Awesome! Just when you think there can't possibly be any more twists along come another one! The best programme on TV by a mile!
Can't believe it's not on again til January - I'll be in a worse state than Mahone by then

and i think its time Mahone offed himself, hes getting anoying

I presume when linc goes to visit they'll just say that he isn't there.

As regards to Mahone and those 2 episodes being away being just filler, I disagree, he should have his pills now and with those he's the best character

Yeh, or why didn't one of the helicopters just land on the roof while the other staved off the soldiers? There was enough room.

All in all a good episode. Raging we have to wait until January now !
