The Event - who'll be watching?

[ThighsWideShitItsAGhost]

And anyone have any idea what it's about? Looks quite good.

The parents kept phoning whilst they were on holiday as Sean had asked father's permission to propose so they were probably calling to find out if there was "news".

[ChaosInCamelot]

Sorry, x post Majorca. Yes, that's right. That might have just been the police badge. Maybe it was other policemans name? Not sure.

[ChaosInCamelot]

The policeman had said it was his wife and family, but she realised when she saw the screensaver photo change to photo of 'real' policeman with the wife and kids. Other photos were just of wife/kids before that. Does that make sense?!

[moragbellingham]

You mean Leila in the police station?

If so, she saw the digital photo frame change to the real officer and his wife and with the kids etc. after he'd lied (the fake/alien) about the family.

Oh, and a drop of blood on the carpet too.

I caught up and am quite looking forward to tonight's episode (not as much as the Dexter finale though!).
Who needs a real life when you can veg out in front of the box on a Friday

[gorehaginhellsbum]

Does this mean I can catch up before Friday???

I miss Flashforward and didn't help I'd had a bit of wine during the last episode - completely forgot the ending (or lack of it!)

[mumblechum]

They did meet 5 years earlier in the pool, when Leila was around 18.

Agree it was weird that her parents were phoning her everyday when she was about 23.

I hope it's not going to be another Lost, ie up it's own botty, quite like it so far and, like herbgarden, dh and I rarely watch tv together so it's nice to find some drivel thing we both like

[mousymouse]

"Another slight question about the plot - Leila was ?about 25, and her sister we were led to believe was 7. Not unheard of age gap between children, but a bit unusual..."

I think they mentioned that she was 18, but don't quote me...

[SHRIIIEEEKPoolingBearBlood]

all watched!

[SHRIIIEEEKPoolingBearBlood]

Have watched the first 20mns of the second one - will I understand 'sleeper' when I'm all the way through?
It is a bit like the X Files, but we haven't had anything as good as the X Files on in the last 8 years - its well overdue

[herbgarden]

No, I wondered that too...they even had a marshall on board so it's not like security was lax was it ?

[herbgarden]

Repeated weds night I think at 11.15pm (don't quote me) -

I started watching Ep 1 when DD was in bed at lunchtime and DH took DS swimming. Thought that finally I'd found something that DH might also watch - I just about managed to keep up and quite enjoyed it (DH aalmost won't watch because I like something so he presumes it'll be drivel).. so this evening I pretended I hadn't watched it earlier and suggested he might like to watch it with me - he complained and stuck his head in the paper so I had to watch episode 1 again (couldn't bring myself to let on ) he then announced at the end - "oh not that kind of "sci-fi " sh*t" is it ..... I GIVE UP !!!>.. He even wanted to turn over to X-Factor instead ...

Anyway, I'll watch it - something different !

My DH fell asleep about 10 mins before the end of the first one and woke up about 15 mins into the second one. As expected he started to ask what had happened. (v. annoying) I didn't know where to start .

[foxinsocks]

I fell asleep (ffs) half way through. Is it repeated?
