Just found out the new series is on BBC2 tonight at 10pm.

I watched the 1st series when it was repeated recently - and got hooked. Thought it was the best thing since sliced bread.

Question

New series? What on earth is it about? I thought they have done all they can? Is it Jack Bauer again? Is it "24 hours" again? What is it called? Sorry about all the questions? But i rather liked that show

Unhappy

This time it's (yawn) predictably a "middle eastern terrosist attack".

Generally regarded as cheesy, but make your own mind up.

It's a second series with Bauer back again - set about a year after the 1st series. He's on hard times, not speaking to daughter, missing wife .... and then the president calls!

If it's 1/2 as good as the 1st series, it'll be well worth watching.

.... and then the president calls
Hey Hey!!!

John - Agree with you there, the first series was brilliant, it will be quite difficult to beat it.

Just watched the first episode. Looks good - not the same as watching the 1st series though. Kim annoys the hell out of me though - you think if her father said get out of town she'd have belived him by now.

Question - When they were torturing that guy for the bomb info right at the beginning what the hell was in the bags tied to his feet?

I presumed it was some kind of acid?

And Kim may annoy you, but she's so damn fine...

Talking

Just watched Episode 12 tonight ... very much as gripping as the first, though I know it won't appeal to everyone.

This story has a very weak link as far as Kim is concerned, though based on the first series anything could happen in the next 12 hours!

I taped it and haven't watched it yet. I have heard its got more twists and turns than a very twitsy turny thing. More than the first series. Nice to see Keifer get a producer credit too, I think he's wicked.

As for Kim, she's a Britney lookalike who I think is mighty fine.
