enjoyed that one.... sort of saw part of it coming.... but not the very end bit...

i thought he would have something hidden in the house after he said something about not wanting to move house... then i stupidly looked on imdb before the end and saw the character list... laugh

Best line was "Bad dream? The one with John Prescott and the creme eggs again?"

Indeed.

It was good - but bloomin' dark. Very 'Royston Veysey' but without the laughs.

I saw the first four episodes of the first series when they were originally shown but for some reason missed the rest. Then I binge watched all 3 series when they appeared on iPlayer about a fortnight ago, and can honestly say this is the best thing I've ever seen on TV. Whilst there may have been one or two weak ones - the one in the hotel corridor and the one with the shoe come to mind - most of them have been outstanding.

12 Days Of Christine genuinely made me cry and I don't remember a TV programme ever doing that before. High point for me was the one about the crossword compiler; my God that was just SO clever. This weeks - the darkroom in the cellar - was a great one also.

I thought the best one though, was the one set in the call centre where all the action was seen through the eye of the surveillance camera.

THere is some very inventive stuff going on here, and so the weak ones will always come, as they try new things and hopefully will continue to do so.

I'm a but surprised Yanks haven't remade it. I see it doing well on HBO

Surprised at some of the comments on Zanzibar, thought it was a great start to the season.

Shows how much it varies though as I'd have the call centre one as one of the weaker ones.

Thought Tuesdays was brilliant !! My absolute favourite would be 'the bill' and 'trial of Elizabeth gauge' . Zanzibar was a bit meh for me.

The first one I saw was the 70s crappy telly one, I started watching (not knowing what I was watching even though I'd posted in this thread before) and thought, 'what the fk is this crap', some utterly boring memoir of ste UK telly. Stuck with it because I like programmes about old programmes and I vaguely recognised the VO, and it was brilliant.
That on sticks out, the cal centre and the 12 days, I'd have to look at the list to check my faves.
