Just re-watched it.
Remarkable. Every bit as upsetting, my eyes are watering (in a very manly way) all over again.

Just watched tonight's episode having seen it last time round.

Made Mrs Nick watch it too - she's not a fan of No. 9.

We're both sat with tears. Incredibly moving and fantastic how they squeeze so much into 27 minutes. Pulls you in more than anything I've ever seen in such a short space of time within a self-contained instalment. Staggeringly good.
Yep, saw it the second time tonight, and picked up a few things early on that lead on to the ending. And I was still a mess at the end.

Ah, I didn't realise they were repeating them and saw The 12 Days of Christine had recorded.

Due to a personal experience and being taken completely by surprise, that episode cut through me deeper than anything I've ever watched.

the guy in the mac? He was the one she swerved to avoid when she crashed her car, causing her death

Thanks I twigged it earlier the things he was saying when he kept appearing was what he was saying when he pulled the boy out of the car crash. for some reason I though he was the first boyfriend who died when he was 16, don't know why I thought that!

Had me in tears as well.

Although, can I be the first to mention Sheridan Smith looked good in the nun outfit!

the last episode, the art critic one made no sense to me.

why take the blame for mass killings, it wouldn't be hard for the police to work out who it was

Watched the Christine episode this evening.
It wasn't comedy or even Dark Comedy , in fact AFAICT there was no comedic element whatsoever.
A brilliant and thought provoking 30 mins of drama TV though.

the episode is a homage to the The Twilight Zone episode, An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge. A masterful piece of filmography that needs a watch.

A lot of inside no 9 is a homage to twilight zone episodes, which is a good thing.

Just watched 12 days, beautiful piece of comi-drama. Thought some of the comments might have been hyperbole, but they weren't. biggrin

Well I must be a glutton for punishment because I've just watched it for the third time.

No hyperbole here - it's brilliant.

Not a single wasted word or shot - and genuinely heart-wrenching. I love it.
