Default This Life +10 Special

I know a few people here are looking forward to this re-union special tomorrow night.

As I am stuck in the States, is anyone able to record it put it up as a torrent, please?

However did you fit it into your american television viewing schedule? Squeezed in between Saved by the Bell and Sesame Street?

Cheers, but I don't really know how to do it well enough to explain!!

I'm sure somebody, somewhere will do it......... If not it'll probably be out on a double priced DVD by Easter! Be interested to know your opinions tomorrow, though, please! Enjoy!

Poor old Egg!

I'll see what I can do 2000. I can record it on the Topfield, but haven't transferred from that to PC as yet so will have to experiment.

No, I thought it was poor. Tried to cram a whole series into an hour.

Some things are better left alone.

As a big fan of the original which I re watched when bbc3 repeated it in November, I thought this one off was pants
Set in ludicrous surroundings with the initial didnt they do well turning into an "arent they all unhappy" plot. All that film diary rubbish also.
Ah well...

I enjoyed it to be honest, the whole film diary thing was just the plot device used to get them all back together.

Thought Warren's character was a bit of a let down, nothing like the old Warren but everyone else was pretty spot on.

Loved it when Miles said he would have liked to have got to know Warren better....... but he was always out cottaging

Never saw any of the original series so nothing to judge it against. I thought the script was sharp and quite funny in places, but overall not a great piece of television on a stand-alone basis. Like the drama Dead Clever the night before, it was as if nobody had any original ideas when it came to the ending.

I thought it was OK, the Vietnamese woman screaming at Egg was funny

Tel, agreed on Dead Clever - very good until that silly ending

I actually enjoyed it.

Did think they were trying to cram to much in though as said above.
