Anyone watch this on BBC 1? A mate recommended it and I just watched the first episode on iPlayer. Minnie Driver is in and it seems like another top series from the BBC. (After the brilliance that was Luther.)

yup, I thought it was great. Good cast too, Jimmy Nesbitt aside

Was ok, could still go either way.

Jimmmmmmmmmmmy Nesthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhbit is a cunt flap but I do enjoy saying his name in a bad Oirish accent.

Yeah, could go either way. Seemed to remind me of the Abyss, for obvious reasons, and Event Horizon for it's tenuous links with subs going missing.

I got that Event Horizon feel, especially with the ending.

That's true and with her eyes bleeding as well I suppose there's quite a strong link in fact.

That's exactly what made me think of Event Horizon.

It's all a bit preposterous but good fun nevertheless

All the reviews I've read of this have slated it completely, but on the strength of this thread I gave it a watch on I-Player, and it was not nearly as bad as I had been led to believe.

I haven't watched it yet but will do so in the next day or so - its sat on the Sky+. I thought both The Abyss and Event Horizon were crap. I expected big things from both films but was left very dissapointed. both of them, however were better than the pile of shit that was Sphere ?? with Dustin Hoffman and assorted other big names - that really was shit.

It wasn't that bad. I've seen a lot worse.
