Years and Years...

[Zosherooney]

Has anyone else caught this???

Quite scary, how true some of this might become reality...

[Herbidacious]

Would you recommend? I have the house (and TV) to myself for the next 5 days... Russell T Davies has a good track record (maybe apart from Cucumber, which I couldn't get into...)

I have watched both episodes, it’s enjoyable, thought provoking and quite frightening in equal measure.

It’s set in the near future and the take on politics is what’s most frightening. It has a good ensemble cast

The cast and story are both brilliant - I'm really enjoying it so far. The politics are frightening, as you can see that it is where the country is heading, but that aspect is tempered by the humour in the script. I suspect the further it gets into the future, the darker it will become.

I saw this last week - very enjoyable and entertaining. Not caught up with the second episode yet but will watch tonight. Hope its as good!

[Zosherooney]

I shall be following it.....with interest...

Herb. yes, would recommend but it has a dark side......

I want a Blink

[Zosherooney]

Moira ! They might be available soon on amazon !!! or some other site....?

[Busybee]

Well I have just caught up with the third episode, the darkness is closing in!

I’m still enjoying the series, give it a go Herbi - I think Russell T Davies has delivered yet again.

BB

[Zosherooney]

I agree BB, Herb, give it a 2nd chance...

[Suelle]

According to the Radio Times, the numbers watching this is dropping off drastically, but I think it's the best thing on TV at the moment.

I'm loving this, I was so disappointed when I realised I caught up with all the episodes so far. It's very, very unlike me to binge watch a series so I must be enjoying it.

Decided to jump on the bandwagon and watched all three episodes last night. Very clever, yes of course there is a dark side and sadly, many scenarios seem almost inevitable, but the humour is brilliant. Clever to pick such a short period of 15 years to set it in.

[Zosherooney]

Last episode tonight 9pm - wonder where this will go.....

[liketocook]

Oh I did enjoy this though the ending was a bit weird!

[earthmaiden]

I agree ltc! I still feel that the cleverest thing about it was the way the changes over 15 years gradually crept into life as we know it now. It would be quite interesting to do something similar well with years we have already lived through (note the word well - such things are often badly done!).

[Busybee]

I’ve just read an interview with Russel T Davies........definitely no second series, he has deliberately finished before we know if Edith’s consciousness has transferred.

A bit of a strange ending but ultimately uplifting. I could see Bethany having a spin off series maybe?

Thoroughly enjoyed the series and makes you think about the changes currently happening to society.

BB

[scullion]

have it recorded for a binge watch.

[earthmaiden]

I heard on an interview that it was about as far as you could plausibly go without it becoming sci fi.

[Zosherooney]

I must admit I thought they'd left it open for a 2nd series........ I still think it may happen, these people do get talked round sometimes....
