Did anyone notice the scene where the male CID bloke gets into the female officer's car?
She's stationary, looking straight ahead, and then rather robotically rotates her head than then smiles as she greets him.
I can't imagine that was random...?
HA. Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that. Maybe there are more robot out in the wild than first thought of and hiding in plain sight.She's stationary, looking straight ahead, and then rather robotically rotates her head than then smiles as she greets him.

50p says that the cop bloke tracking them down (cannot think of name) turns out to be a synth.

Yep, good one again tonight. Definitely going to watch the original Real Humans after this series has finished.
Was not expecting the sudden cry for help from Anita when she got plugged into the daughter's computer.
Really getting into this now and Gemma Chan is scarily brilliant as Anita!

I am really enjoying this, is has a good balance of pace and mystery.
Although we did not see Anita why would a non-sex synth bother to have any 'real' lady parts? Why not be just like a Sindy doll?
It may be necessary for them so a simple software upgrade can let them perform more duties! Although we did not see Anita why would a non-sex synth bother to have any 'real' lady parts? Why not be just like a Sindy doll?

So has this decended into the cylon uprising yet or is it going in a totally different direction. I havn't watched any episodes im just curious
Probably best to watch the first episode and judge for yourself. Yes they have reused bits from other classic books and movies. I guess that would be unavoidable but perhaps a little too blatant. So far though, I think it's very good. Then again I don't watch too much telly. So perhaps I'm easily pleased.

And why wear a bra? To be more 'human'?Although we did not see Anita why would a non sex synth bother to have any 'real' lady parts? Why not be just like a Sindy doll?
Series going well from my viewpoint - building it up...

For me the first episode was a bore fest.
It just seems like a poor attempt of a remake of the movie Ex-Machina.
I find it anything but boring.It just seems like a poor attempt of a remake of the movie Ex-Machina.
Ex-Machina was posing questions about why we create these machines in our own image. This is a very different story. Perhaps not original, but ideas taken from much more source material than the most recent android film.
Edit: to correct who is quoting whom.

I'm liking the slow build, and the different personalities of the synths on the run. I do suspect there is a little more to them than just pure synth. The flashes of the crash and the hint that they were create specifically by one guy (can't remember his name) makes me think that these aren't pure synths but human minds within synthetic bodies. Anita being overridden by the synth "mod".
I also chuckle at Katherine Parkinson struggling with technology, the internet in a box scene comes straight back to me..

Anything with John Hurt (who of course has played an Android in Aliens) is worth watching.
Will give it another go next week, sometimes episode one spend too much time establishing characters.
Does have some very familiar themes. Heck, even Asimovs laws got a mention.
