Lots and lots of holes in that plot. Yup that's the wrong room. Look out the window? hadn't thought of that.

It was ok, but massively improved by Sheridan Smith and Katherine Parkinson! I hope they do another full series because it is quite fun in this world of depressing soaps and boring reality shows.

Yeah, it was entertaining. But none of the victims went down stairs and said "F**k me, you want to sort that bath out, if I hadn't have hung on, something nasty could have happened". biggrin

He made her disappear, that's what magicians do!

Like why would he go hunting for pain killers when he could have just given her a massage?

Really enjoyed it!

Except for one thing.

Did anyone else notice that when Jonathan & Ladywoman got into the Golf outside the manor - there were front head restraints. Cut to the following scene when they are following the S-type, the head restraints have disappeared!

How very annoying.

I am not sure you needed to put "like" at the beginning of you post!

Common practice while filming to remove these. Makes for a less cluttered look in the shot. Look for it, and you'll notice it in pretty much all programs.

Seemingly the exterior shots of 'METROPOLIS' (with lots of CGI) were filmed at Knebworth House.



Although when I first saw it I thought it was Harlaxton Manor, the same house used in 'The Haunting'

but no silly
