I have between 1.5 to 2.5MB broadband, and have been watching loads over the internet on my TV. Admittedly the Iplayer App seems to be thew worst, but the Amazon Video App, or NetFlix's App works faultlessly.

My connection is 1MB at best, and netflix works perfectly. I had no problems with Amazon either.

I tried blinkbox when it came out but it buffered constantly. BBC iplayer works well on the TV, but not through my ps3.

The netflix guys have some kind of Internet magic. There's no other explanation.

Damn forgot to record it, can't see it being repeated!!

Never downloaded anything can I watch it without a p.c.? I have iPad and PS4?

It's not.
Email was 24-48 hours before the show.
THere is no plus one channel, no repeat. And it is not available on catch-up. Incredibly poor show. I am gonna have to try and find it on website I can buffer.

Yea - Sky don't put all iPlater More4 Demand5 stuff up... smart TV or 'puter is the way to go.

I got the first few episodes off LoveFilm to see if it was up our street.

It was - so I bought a pristine box set of all 5 (or 6, depending on how you view it) series off eBay for £22.

We binge watched and got through all 6 series in about a month. Great stuff.

We have just completed watching the whole lot over the course of about 4 to 6 months. Fantastic viewing (other than a small number of boring episodes - which is no different to any other series) and sad that we have finished it. You really must see it through to the end. It's really worth watching. Now looking for something else to watch, although I find most of the long drawn out series like Game of Thrones very boring!!!!

Did anyones else's Sky+ recording cut off the last bit of the first episode?!

Yup.


I've also noticed a problem with the first episode. The scene where Walt is talking to his class about "what is chemistry". It seems to be an intro conversation or class that a teacher might have on the first day with a new school year. However he concludes the talk by telling the class to continue with chapter 6 in their workbooks, so they're obviously part way through the year already...

Same with ep2 but luckily I recorded first 5 mins of the next programme.

I remember being in year 11 (fifth year) and halfway through a year my home economics teacher who I had 'banter' with over the previous years tried to shame me by during one of her speeches to the class, putting me on the spot and asking me to define 'home economics'.

My lightning fast response of "A waste of time on Thursday afternoons" was met with raucous laughter from the whole class and the teacher so flummoxed she left the room to get the head of department to chastise me and tell the class how great home economics actually was.

So it does happen!

I've been recording this, and given that it adds five hours a week onto my already almost-full PVR I figured I'd better start watching it. So far I've done the first two, and the first one is much better than the second one. It seems the first series (nope, not calling it a "season") is only seven episodes as Spike starts on S2 next week, so I figure I'll give it until the end of the first one and see if it's worth continuing.

Spike's a bit annoying really, as well as dropping the end off the recording (even though it's about 1h4), it also doesn't seem to send the "programme start" signal so I usually miss the first bit, though of course I have no idea whether that' seconds or minutes.

Word to the wise, whilst it deserves all the hype it gets - it's very slow burn, especially the first few series - IMO it's much better binge watching than weekly watching.

But I found it a good one from the start , its just when you have to have one more before bed
