I've got mixed feelings.

Its all a bit "wall-street" - who has the brightest tie and snorts the most coke. "Lunch is for pussies" hehe. There also isnt much by the way of plot....lets see if we can get Mr X to sign document Y by the end of the show.

On the other hand, it is trashy entertainment and Im about to waste 1 hour before bed watching it on tape.

I agree with you on this apache, I am loving this series at the moment. The one liners are very funny, LOL several times in last nights episode.

It's good, but it's not even in the same league as The West Wing..

Nothing like that in my office, which is exactly the sort of place they are meant to be portraying. Much more like Ally McBeal in here instead

Now you are talking, I'm afraid I also agree with you CZ, I'm being very agreeable today

West Wing is a top programme but at the moment Trust is one of the better BBC series on at the moment that is homegrown and not American.

Did anyone see The Book Group on C4?

They played series 1 over the last week, series 2 starts tonight. Quite entertaining....

Watched it last night and have to say it get better, the bit about "gay envy" was very funny!

Also a PH members flat, sorry apartment, was used last night, as reported in a previous thread;


Amar360 said: Some scenes were filmed in my flat - watch Episode 3 this coming Thursday the 23rd and the minimalist home of Ash (the black lawyer) overlooking the Thames with stainless steel kitchen and twin sinks in the bathroom. It was fun seeing a TV show being filmed at home!


Like to know why he has his and hers sinks, or is that the in thing on London?

Saw the first episode. Dumb-down formula-TV at its worst. The dialogue is dreadful. TV companies insult our intelligence these days. Probably because most people are thick; you only have to look at the ratings for Eastenders to confirm that.

Shame, because I think Robson Green is a good actor.

Hmmmm - I'll watch the second series but it's on probation.

I was in a real book group once and it was a lot more entertaining than the TV version (mainly because most of the other members were liberals/christians, and I'm niether. Probably just boring for them, in retrospect)

They're all in the same category as far as I am concerned.

I enjoyed 'Cruise of the Gods' over christmas. I also quite enjoyed that wife-swap thing that Robson Green was in (until the second half where it went a bit stupid). '24'was good too.

Don't think Steve Heath would be too pleased!
