STAG - Sat 9pm bbc2

[Blondeshavemorefun]

A stag weekend (literally) as they go deer hunting - that goes wrong and they start getting bumped off .,,,,,,,,,,,

Looks good. 3 parter :)

[ChaostheCat]

Wasn't sure at the start but really enjoyed it. Can't wait for part 2.

[Davros]

Agreed. It was quite funny and scary

[mrswhiplington]

Didn't think it was going to be as funny as it was, laughed at one of them carrying somebody's legs on his shoulders.

I hope the next episodes are as good.

[gingerboy1912]

Watching it now. I agree it's a bit scary but funny.

[gingerboy1912]

I'm wondering if the whole thing is a set up and it's part of the 'experience' for the stag(groom) to think he's being hunted.

[DrivingMissLazy1]

This better not have a crap ending.
I also liked the legs on his shoulders

[gingerboy1912]

Why did the mans credit card get declined at the pub. Did the bar staff cancel it on purpose?

[NickiFury]

I turned it off after five minutes, found it really Try Hard. Might give it another go on the basis of this thread.

[Blondeshavemorefun]

I really enjoyed it :)

I didn't think card got declined. Just it was taking ages to go through /bad wifi /weather

I did wonder if was a joke and not really dead ..,,,,,,,,,

Been films like that before

April fools day

And one where he throws a huge party for his brother but people die and he shoots someone and thinks killed them so jumps his self off the building - but they know he will do that so falls into a big safety net mattress

Anyone know that film?

I can't wait for part 2

[CoffeeAndOranges]

Blondes do you mean The Game? Love that film. Little known but really clever.

Watching Stag now on iPlayer- very macabre comedy.

The presence of Reece Shearsmith and the dark comedy element makes me think it could be written by the League of Gentlemen chaps.

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Well done coffee*. That's the one

I'm impressed you got it from my ramblings

Fab film. Very clever !!!

So is stag the same?? All a game?

The legs really made me laugh

[Yoksha]

Just watched this on BBCi due to this thread. Really enjoyed it. Do agree it might be part of the " whole experience ". The comment about the Geography Teacher's salary cracked me up. " What does he earn"? Future Bil replies " £21,00". " is that a week or a month "? "No, a year " said the Bil. Priceless.

[gingerboy1912]

yes there was lots of funny one liners.

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Just seems funny deaths - being dragged away - shot - torn
Apart etc

Tho the one who fell down the hole could have been nasty if wasn't for his phone

Not sure how the legs managed to get stuffed in a rucksack

[2rebecca]

It made me think of the novel "be my enemy" by Christopher Brookmyre about a group of blokes paintballing somewhere remote in Scotland on a team building expedition who get cut off and all start being killed one by one.

[CoffeeAndOranges]

It kind of reminds me of a Comic Strip program with Rik, Ade etc where they were all businessmen on their way to a conference and one of them was sick all the time then they crashed the car and the tape got stuck on 'Gold' by Spandeau Ballet. They found a house in the middle of nowhere with Dawn French playing a bonkers woman. Absolute comedy genius.

Will be interesting to see how this one pans out!

[Rollergirl1]

2rebecca: I've read that book and I thought exactly the same. Is also quite similar to another film called Severance about people being bumped off at a team building weekend. Has Danny Dyer in it. Actually quite good.

Does The Game have Michael Douglas in it?

I was wondering if the BIL isn't actually the BIL at all? Apparently he wasn't invited and no-one, not even the groom has actually met him before so he could easily not be who he says he is?

[2rebecca]

Also the Reece character might be still alive as the legs could belong to anyone and they just think it's him because of the wallet and he often plays psychos

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Severence is good

And yes MICHEAL Douglas plays the brother - think other is sean penn??

The stag did meet the bil before and you saw /heard it talking to his sister

Tho it is always the quiet ones ...,,,,,

But still think it's a hoax

[2rebecca]

I saw that comic strip thing too. They're all maybe variations on Agatha Christie's 10 little nigger boys

[2rebecca]

I'm sure these days it has a more pc title

[lizzydrippingsghost]

i cant wait for the next episode , i wonder if the bride to be is in on it as she phoned her brother as said make sure nothing happens to future husband(sorry i cant remember any of their names)

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Whoop on tomorrow

Can't wait

[Cerseirys]

My money's on the Aussie latecomer, I bet he's behind the murders.

[YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut]

I loved the one with the moustache trying to navigate round the woods on foot with the satnav!
