So who else is watching this?
It's one of those series that started off OK (ish), but is getting better and BETTER!
and how hot is Kevin Bacon wouldn't say no to joe carroll either Grin

So what do youz think of the series so far? How long do you think computer geek will last?

Agree that it's getting better. It was good but not great first two series. I've three episodes to catch up on as have been away but will be back Smile.

I love it! This series is the best yet, series 2 went really weird.

I really hope Joe manages to escape, I think he's brilliant and even though he's a sadistic murder, i definitely would Ryan Hardey could join in

I found this weeks really uncomfortable to watch, especially when he was putting the severed arm through the machine. I'm glad the story has moved away from Mark, I really don't like him, he's way too creepy for my liking.

I have no idea how long the computer geek will last but I hope he finds time to find some
Super clever way of helping Joe escape.

Agree this series is better. Series 2 was lazy. I'm betting the girlfriend will be a wrong 'un. When will Ryan learn????

I think Mike is hot myself, especially since he got cold and ruthless.

Yes fish I think there is something not quite right about her.

What happened to Claire and little Joey? I haven't heard them mentioned once this series?

I love me a bit of Joe Carroll and he deffo can't be executed!! I'm thinking that maybe something will happen and they'll need his help properly and the FBI will have to somehow get him pardoned or whatever for now so that he can talk and help them in catching murderers or something. Would be great to see him escape, but didn't they say he's escaped 2 or 3 times already?? They might think it's too predictable for him to escape again, but need to keep him alive somehow. Would be crap without him in it, bit like Homeland once they'd killed off a main character(won't say incase people wanting to watch them still lol)

Series 1 was great, series 2 was so appalling that we nearly didn't try series 3. But so glad we did. It's brilliant tv, really gripping.
Although Joe's very nasal voice really really irritates me

I wonder if he will use the bit of wire to unpick the lock or stab the guards, or both. I expect things will hot up a lot in the next episode!

I suspect it's a stabbing device, and he alone will get past 17 guards and electric gates and the FBI Grin

I don't see how this series can work now.

Neither theo nor mark/Luke have me gripped enough. And I don't particularly want to watch Ryan battle with himself, himself. He needs joe.

And yes I cried. excellent acting from James purefoy.

As an aside, wouldn't the taser have buggered his pacemaker?

Sad

I am bereft.

Excellent acting from the utterly delicious James Purefoy.

I shall need to console myself with the boxset now. Grin

It was brave of them to do that. I couldn't see where they were going to go with Joe but it's always been like: 'and with one bound he was free', no matter how unlikely.

I kept expecting someone in the death chamber to be one of his Followers.

They kept up the unreality with Ryan fighting off four psychopaths, two of whom were twice his size. And the idea that in the end all Joe wanted was a hug and a proper farewell before going into the good night.

And I agree, they seemed to have forgotten about Ryan's pacemaker Grin
