In The Flesh anyone?

[whatkungfuthat]

Anyone else see it? It's not exactly what I thought but I will stay with it. That bit with the elderly lady was horrible.

[FuckyNell]

Zombie thread alert

Whose watching the second series?

[LittleBairn]

what I didn't realise it ws made with US money. It frustrates me too that BBC seem to be unwilling to take chances on drama, with their own money, that isn't a period piece. Ironically BBC3 does make good dramas like Being Human and Fades.

sunny yes no more Fades they cancelled it and then it won a Bafta talk about looking like twats!

[Sunnywithshowers]

So no more Fades? [bushock] That was a terrific series.

[whatkungfuthat]

I noticed this one was made in conjunction with the US and when Rick called to warn Kieren it was a US style ringtone. What I don't understand though is why there isn't enough licence money to make these sort of things (and Torchwood) without US investment?

[LittleBairn]

I still can't believe they abandoned Fades, it won a Bafta!

[whatkungfuthat]

I liked the series, the bit with Ricky Tomlinson at the end was good after he was missing since they executed his wife. Agree that it's frustrating not knowing the website guy's intention but it sets the scene nicely if they do another series. I won't be holding my breath though after them abandoning The Fades even though it was popular.

[AmberLeaf]

Yeah I knew she got on the trasin to go to the commune but we need to know more.

The bot with keirans dad and him talking about him going missing but it really being about when he did that and killed himself was moving.

The commune thing, yes it could just be a way of rounding up errant non conformist PDS sufferers couldn't it?

[LittleBairn]

He knows Lisa 100% dead, as does sister (I'm wondering if Gemma delivered the fatal shot after keiran snacked on her) they just didn't want to break her
Parents hearts.
So far only those died in the year before the rising have PDS every one they ate died. But I don't think the average population knew that the time.

I loved last nights Ep, so sad. I didn't expect Ricks dad to kill him like that, heartbreaking after his mothers speach. I'm glad he got his comeuppance it's always the quite ones!

Is it really the end of the series, I though there was a few more episodes?!

[Ilovemydogandmydoglovesme]

Yes must have another series. An wondering if it really is a commune or another PDS extermination group.

Didn't see Ricks death coming. Can't believe his father killed him like that and thought he'd come back.

Is that Lisa actually a zombie though? Or did Kieran imagine her walking through the woods. Didn't they smash her head in and eat bits? She couldn't come back from that surely?

[Sunnywithshowers]

I'd love to see another series. I thought this was a good ending and definitely left it open for another series. [bugrin]

[BOEUF]

Yes, she went to the commune.

It was really moving at the end, it was done so well. And there's definitely potential for another series, yay.

[AmberLeaf]

I did.

How long till series 2?! Lots of loose ends I think, that usuaLly means a 2nd series doesn't it?

Good but we need to know what happened to the girl (forgotten her name?) Keirans old hunting partner? Did she go and live on the PDS commune?

[Sunnywithshowers]

Did anyone else watch the last episode?

[whatkungfuthat]

Finally caught up on iplayer. It doesn't look like it will end well, I wonder if the guy from the website and his blue drug will come into it somehow?

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Thanks mrsd - somehow missed that bit of info

Can't believe it finishes next week

Wonder if will make a series 2

Thought this weeks was better :)

[Ilovemydogandmydoglovesme]

I quite enjoyed it.

Would like someone to explain to Ricks dad though that the neighbours wife and his son Rick are in fact the same thing. Don't think he'll cope with that and the news that his son is probably gay as well.

[MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic]

Blondes Keiren slit his wrists to commit suicide back in 2009, after Rick was blown up by an IED in Afghanistan (I'm assuming it was that way around, given that it seemed Keiren knew Rick was dead when he returned home, but Rick had to be told Keiren had died)

I hope we find out why it was that people who died in 2009 came back. It was just then wasn't it? It's not an ongoing issue - just one mass uprising?

[theoriginalandbestrookie]

Ah ok thanks susiedaisy - I might check out the website to get the zombie info

[susiedaisy]

I think the older lady was shot in the head which generally kills zombies, whereas the spear in the young girls side wouldn't do anything.

[theoriginalandbestrookie]

I ended up watching it again last night and thought it was much better than the first one.
I wondered how they managed to kill the zombies as when he speared that girl she didn't "die" but when the old lady zombie got shot she did.

[BOEUF]

I'm really enjoying this. I'm gutted that it's the last one this week.

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Def think there was some relationship between them

I take it he slit his wrists to escape dying as a zombie?

[AmberLeaf]

I didn't pick up on it last week, but when they saw each other for the first time in the pub I said to my son 'there is more than just friends to their relationship' he just laughed at me and said 'nooo way'

Did the hints from next week show Philip as a rotter?

Looks like it all goes to shit next week doesn't it?

[MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic]

I feel vindicated by the Rick/Keiran reveal. I called that last week and got accused of reading gay subtext into everything.

Yes, big fat giant amounts of denial going on all over the place it seems!

[AmberLeaf]

I was going to say why is Rick/Ricks dad denying he is a PDS sufferer and then came the bit about him and Kieran and his going off to join the army to 'man up'

Denial seems to be a thing in that family!
