is she good in this?

I doubt we've seen the last of her, she's hardly done anything so far and is still Curtis's girlfriend.

They're all really good. One of my friends inspired a character in the David Peace book and when filmed, that char was played by Rob Sheehan. I showed this friend Misfits clips last night, ROFLing as friend was going 'wait...looks familiar...whywhywhy does he look so familiar?'

Her english accent is really good, took me a while to realize it was actually her. Pretty different role to anything i've seen her in up to now as well.

There's definitely a third (and I think it's the final) series been given the go-ahead.

I love the fact that you never know what the hell is likely to happen next. Even the heavy handed foreshadowing (like lactose intolerance) plays off completely differently to expectations.

I'm assuming Ruth Negga will be back because Curtis' only motive for getting powers back is to resurrect her. Although...
the simplest thing would be for him to wind back to before any of them sell their powers and them to kill jesus then. But then Nathan won't necessarily meet the pregnant girl and they won't have the money that jesus saved and I bet both those are in place, and new powers (although I reckon the only one who will have something new is Alisha).

Shit, I had no idea the Christmas special had already been on--thought it was on friday night. DLing now!

Yeah I also thought it was on Friday, now I've spoilered it a bit for myself by reading the thread. Ah well, identity of Superhoodie aside it's not like anyone watches this programme for the plot twists is it?
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 21 December 2010 10:19 (2 years ago) Permalink
I don't know what I watch it for TBH. All I know is I'm compelled to.

Sorry for any spoilers - fwiw I had missed it on Sunday too and only worked out it had been on when I had no idea what the alien someone else talked about was.

Nathan killing the "alien" was truly one of the most horrifying/hilarious tv moments i have ever seen
OMG yes.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 22 December 2010 12:01 (2 years ago) Permalink
Yeah, I get the feeling they stuck that in just to annoy the watchdogs.
― Bernard V. O'Hare (dog latin), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 12:03 (2 years ago) Permalink
The entire last 20mins of this episode was just fantastic. They need to bring the Jesus guy back somehow, he was like a weird rapey David Tennant/Matt Bellamy/Robert Peston hybrid.
Also the Christmas carol was just lolololol.
Love the way Nathan just never thinks anything through or learns from his mistakes. Should I blow my brains out on national TV? Yeah why not. Should I sell my immortality for a couple of grand, yeah go for it.

Was Jesus the same guy who played one of the main characters in Bunny & the Bull?

Totally otm dl, I *knew* I recognised him from somewhere.

Needs an Easter Special.

loved Nathan being Mr Brave with the gunman until someone reminded him he was no longer immortal loved alien baby stomp
(although I reckon the only one who will have something new is Alisha)
Simon needs to buy +1 time-travelling to become hoodie-guy.
― onimo, Wednesday, 29 December 2010 11:45 (2 years ago) Permalink
Also, time-travelling Simon had the news tape from the undone timeline in ep 6, so he'll need some sort of parallel-universe-hopping powers too

I just caught up with this last series and thought it was just brilliant. Can't wait for more.
― treefell, Thursday, 30 December 2010 14:13 (2 years ago) Permalink
Love this show so much I haven't really cared about the timetravel plot holes. In a way I hope they don't address them because there are just so many now (Like Simon and Alisha getting together in the future after she's meant to have been killed by the Grand Theft Auto bloke, or Simon and Alisha remembering the conversation about future-Simon after Curtis reversed that day), dimension jumping would be nice but I like that this is the kind of show that doesn't get too hung up on those sorts of details, and that no one really notices them anyway because it's too busy being awesome in every other way.

Has anyone been watching The Fades? It's like elements of Misfits and The Inbetweeners grafted on to Buffy The Vampire Slayer. It's not remotely original but significantly better than you'd expect from BBC3.

So annoyed there's no Nathan in this, but the mini-episode that writes him out is terrific:

This was not good

Yeah very disappointing but at the same time expectedly so. Sheehan really carried the show and I just don't particularly care about the other characters.
New guy = rubbish, they tried to overload his character with Nathan-style filth lines and the actor didn't have the charm to carry it off.
― Matt DC, Monday, 31 October 2011 12:24 (1 year ago) Permalink
Exactly, all the anal sex stuff etc. was trying way too hard
― Number None, Monday, 31 October 2011 12:44 (1 year ago) Permalink
Anyone still watching? I think it's becoming a bit Shameless in attempting to up the WTFness with every episode but there are still lols to be had.New bloke completely abandoned his sensitive side this week in favour of being 100% sleaze ball.
Curtis proves it's hard out there for a girl - switched gender for five minutes and managed to be sexually assaulted by three different men.
Looks like some actually story-arc stuff coming up next week. Good.

I thought this week's episode was OK, but last week's was definitely poor.

Yeah me too. Did rather like this, for very similar reasons to True Blood - camp, over the top, ridiculous fun.
