i thought that was good but something happened with sky plus and lost a load of episodes,i will carry on watching it,looking forward to watching ray donavan.As for the returned mr smith is correct its a bit slow to be a classic but is still very watchable,its just a bit too low budget to be classic,to be honest it has me confused and the only stab in the dark i can think of is that everybody is dead,just different degrees of death where some know and others dont,im wondering if the coach crash and other deaths happened before some kind of catastrophic failure of the dam which killed everybody and it is some kind of parallel universe,i only started thinking that after i noticed all the roads and the dam walls were decreped,perhaps they all live as ghosts in a kind of no go area.

Does anyone who's watching Les Revenants think that Lena and Camille swapped places the morning of the bus crash...hence the hostility between the 2, and other strange stuff...

Last episode was good, with the emergence of many others around the fire and Lucy's clan...

All the animal references...The Butterfly at Mr Costa's, The rotting corpse in the bin (Camille's pet??), The aggressive dog/wolf who attacked the bar manager, who I'm sure I'd seen taxidermied earlier?? Baffling but keeps you watching.

Pierre is creepy, Victor equally, but I think both are key.

Can't wait for Sunday's finale, but feel we're gonna be left with more questions than answers....ans 2 years to wait for season 2.

Grrrrrrr!

And why can't they get out of the village? Are they all dead? All killed when the dam burst?

[Elmer Fudd's Thick Lip]

Les Revenants.....

Left a bit underwhelmed by that ending tbh...

I think it was suggesting the 'others' are the ones who died when the dam originally burst?

Still too many questions, and not enough answers..

What is it with their skin?? What do they want?? Why after saying they'd take Adele, if they didn't bring her to them, was she there in the morning??(Guessing that's series2 plot sorted??)...

Why did they not want to take Serge with them?? Plot hole, or because of the disappearance under the water (although was seen again afterwards by Julie)

What's the story with Lucy Clarsen?? Has she died before the underpass attack by Serge?? Seems to know a hell of a lot, and had the psychic sex power beforehand...as demonstrated on Jerome(The most French looking, French bloke in the world)


Am still intrigued though, and will be looking out for the next series, although I understand, it's gonna be 2 years in the waiting.

Thoughts?? Those who stuck with it...

Hey ho......

Btw....Is anyone else having Banshee withdrawals??

Read a bit about the remake.

Paul Abbott (Shameless,Hit and Miss) is supposedly gonna be heavily involved.

Don't think it'll manage the brooding atmosphere of the French one though. Seems suited to their country and tongue for some reason...

Could be wrong like, it might be great.

Edit-Wonder if they'll use Ladybower, and the drowned villages of Derwent and Ashopton, as a setting?? Possibility?? Is the Steeple still visible at Ladybower at low water???

Has just reminded me of a book I wanted to look for called 'Silent Valley' about the flooding of the above.

Ray Donovan has started off very, very good.

[Mr.Spireite]

I will miss how they say "pub"

[Westbars Spireite]

Watched episode one of Ray Donovan. Interested enough to watch the next two. Anyone else seen it?

Yup, seen both the episodes Atlantic have shown and i'm loving it! Looking forwards to tomorrows ep. Liev Schreiber is excellent, as is John Voigt who plays his character excellently. As does Eddie Marsan who's been in one of my all time favorite films Gangster No1.

Downloaded the first one from Sky Anytime+ and then recorded the second one on Saturday. Not watched them yet but it looks quite interesting. Just reminded me that i need to set it to record with series link for tomorrow night just in case its any good!!

[Sabreman]

Just downloaded the first two episodes from Sky Anytime, will watch one tonight maybe both if the first one is ok

[Westbars Spireite]

Quite enjoying that Top of the Lake. Elisabeth Moss is someone I was unfamiliar with but there's something about her.

[Bonnyman]

if the returned is not on again for up to 2 years how will they overcome the age factor as camille and victor will look different by the time they start filming

[Bluebelle]

Anyone watching the American version of House of Cards ? Son got the DVD set for his birthday . Up to episode 5 and its brilliant. Kevin Spacey is just so good.

Seemed like they made it up as they went along

No hasn't been visable for donkeys years. It was demolished on safety grounds

[Elmer Fudd's Thick Lip]

Anyone else keeping up with Ray Donovan??

Progressing quite nicely atm, and still enough in it to keep me interested.

Also finally got round to starting a near on 50hr marathon of Breaking Bad. Had it for ages but only watched the first 2 episodes last night. Really enjoyed it though, and if things are to be believed it gets better and better.

Thought it was quite good actually, although the ending left me a little confused.

Who do you think was the father of Tui's baby? Matt or the Copper. I think the Copper falsified the DNA to make it look like it was Matt, but it never really made it abundantly clear.
