    If this weekend's episode is postponed due to mindless drooling over a very old man who died, so help me...

    How many bosses has Ted had since the show started?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,550 ✭✭✭ShineOn7


    Trivia:

    Vicky McClure's real-life nephew plays her on-screen son Josh

    That's a nice touch

    A guess of; three?

    There might be a practical elective.
    Almost guarantees you a pass before you have to sit the written & interview.

    Beeb really overdoing it tonight on Prince Phil. BBC 1 and 2 showing exactly the same programme and BBC4 off air. Hopefully it’s just for tonight.

    What will they be like when the Queen goes ? :eek:

    Steve seems like a Chelsea fan to me, not sure why tho.
    Martin Compston is a massive Celtic fan, he was on the Jamie Carragher Podcast a while back.
    It well worth a listen, football fans would enjoy it more but if you've no interest it's still good enough.
    There's even a segment where they talk about who H is which I quite enjoyed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,929 ✭✭✭✭Ash.J.Williams


    I’m watching again starting at s5 and working back :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,797 ✭✭✭Rfrip


    Just rewatching S2...the scene where they are looking at footage at the dinner thing and Dryden is there and they notice the missing girl. Goosebumps!

    It’s so so good. Also just on the rte player...it’s not as bad as I remember...and I need the ad breaks to gather my thoughts!

    BBC flooded with complaints over Prince Philip death coverage

    Corporation opened dedicated complaints form on its website to deal with high volume of comments


    https://www.theguardian.com/media/2021/apr/10/bbc-flooded-with-complaints-over-prince-philip-coverage

    Fcuking ridiculous carry on from them yesterday

    I think it's fair to say we're getting LOD tomorrow night


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭SimonTemplar


    I've seen a few things online over the last few days that indicates tomorrow's episode will be brilliant and eventful.

    Craig Parkinson who played Dot and currently hosts the podcast has seen the episode and tweeted "For my money, I think it’s the best episode of any season of LOD but that’s as much as I’m able to say." He also tweeted "Obviously my lips are sealed but you may need a small breather after episode 4 on Sunday "

    Martin Compston tweeted a few hours ago, "Tomorrow’s the big one. episode 4! On paper one of the best @jed_mercurio has ever written, if we deliver what was there potential to be a classic."

    Critic Boyd Hilton, who I presume has seen the episode, retweeted Martin saying "It is an absolute classic hour of television."

    Can't wait. God knows what is going to happen.

    Oh God, I did switch off, believe me. I was watching the Bohs v Dundalk match online, then I watched the latest episode of Deutschland 89. I just checked in on BBC a couple of times to see what they were at. Not a hope in hell I was sitting through any of that.

    I wonder is a character getting killed? The synopsis on sky says a witness interview goes horribly wrong...
