Quite enjoying it actually. Would've laughed in Peter Firth was the cameo Abberline.

Does anyone still watch this, just watched all of them on Prime and noticed BBC are showing them late at night one night a week.

Or are we not allowed to talk about them?

It was a great series, but the BBC tossers cancelled it after 3 seasons, it was then picked up by Amazon (I think) for series 4 and 5.
I really enjoyed it, Jerome was very good and Macfadyen played the part very well. All round it was a solid, well acted, well scripted and well rounded production.

There was a fair amount of discussion when it was current. I'm led to believe that the whole 5 seasons are available via some torrent sites, but of course downloading copyrighted material is illegal so no one would ever consider doing that. Ahem.

Well worth another watch actually, thanks for the heads up.

I think it was "picked up" by BBC America. We, in the US, had the latest seasons. I think Orphan Black is now made for BBC America as well.

YEah BBC got rid, Amazon picked it up and BBC 'hired' the programme back.

Anyway, has anyone else watched the last ever episode?

I've watched all 5 series, at the end of the last episode of series 5, it said .....to be continued, so that leads me to believe there are more series planned. wink

ok, admittedly i wasnt paying attention to it completely but i managed to get 'lost', was it him suffering ptsd and seeing the dead (you know who i mean) or did these events happen beforehand? i didnt quite understand the references to the very first case they had.

Like i said, maybe i should have paid more attention
