The Tunnel - starts tonight

From the ad, it looks very much like The Bridge - in a construction-theme kind of way ;-)
Also it has Stannis Baratheon starring so it will be good
Anyone else going to give it a watch?

Me! I've got it on record but won't watch it tonight. I usually watch a day late to avoid adverts.
I've got The Walking Dead on tonight.

glenthebattleostrich · 15/10/2013 19:42

It's showing as tomorrow in my planner, always sky + and watch later so I don't have to watch ads

WiddleAndPuke · 15/10/2013 19:46

What channel/time?? Can't find it either today or tomorrow!

Ladytron · 15/10/2013 20:36

Whoops, I'm a day ahead of myself.
Widdle it's Weds, 9pm Sky Atlantic HD.

I loved The Bridge, wish we had Sky.

googlyeyes · 15/10/2013 21:24

From what I hear it's pretty much a scene by scene copy of a The Bridge so I think I might just wait til a the second series of the original, which was incredible!

Suddengeekgirl · 15/10/2013 21:46

I've seen it - it was on sky anytime/ on demand

Pretty good, bit grim in parts, worth watching the next episode I think. :)

Was weird seeing stannis being married to gwenivere! Confused

imnotwhoyouthinkiam · 15/10/2013 23:45

This thread totally threw me! Mum told me it was on, and I hadn't yet set the sky for it, then I got confused at thought I'd lost a day somewhere. But its ok, I haven't!

I've never heard of The Bridge, but The Tunnel looks good :)

sudden my sky anytime is shit, it only ever has movies on, how come yours has things that haven't even been on tv yet? Envy

TheDoctrineOfSpike · 15/10/2013 23:48

Is there going to be another series of The Bridge? The story arc seemed pretty one-off.

Suddengeekgirl · 16/10/2013 08:21

imnot - the sky box is plugged into the Internet. It gets all the catch up things like iplayer, 4od etc and had a really big selection of box sets of stuff as well. We have fibre optic broadband here so it's super fast to download. :)

VivaLeThrustBadger · 16/10/2013 08:24

I've not seen The Bridge but a trailer for The Tunnel looked good.

imnotwhoyouthinkiam · 16/10/2013 09:06

Ahh, you have the new fangled one and internet! That's where I'm going wrong! :)

Sunnymeg · 16/10/2013 17:07

There is going to be a second series of The Bridge. BBC are showing it sometime next year.

TheOnlyOliviaMumsnet · 16/10/2013 17:09

Lurkity lurk

googlyeyes · 16/10/2013 17:34

Yes there's definitely a second series of The Bridge on its way, though I thought it was going to be on at the end of this year Sad

anonacfr · 16/10/2013 19:42

A Swedish friend of mine has just seen the first four episode of the Bridge part 2 she said it was really good! The two leads are both back but she hasn't told me any more.

TheDoctrineOfSpike · 16/10/2013 22:35

Ooh, thanks sunny and everyone.

HavantGuard · 16/10/2013 22:40

Love The Bridge. I'm really glad there's going to be another series. Can't be arsed watching The Tunnel. Why remake something that's perfectly fine as it is Confused.

anonacfr · 16/10/2013 23:35

They've also done an American version! Set on the Mexican/US border and Diane Kruger plays the female copper.

LittleAbruzzenBear · 17/10/2013 13:50

I will be recording and watching tomorrow. Should be good.

MymbleHasRisenFromTheGrave · 17/10/2013 18:53

Loved The Bridge, can't really see the point in The Tunnel, but will be watching anyway to perve on Stannis Grin

somersethouse · 18/10/2013 11:54

I thought it was brilliant!

Loved the characters and acting. Really good.

somersethouse · 18/10/2013 12:20

I found the French detetives sandwich intruiging. :)

MymbleHasRisenFromTheGrave · 18/10/2013 12:21

I liked it, nicely done although I imagine it would be better if you haven't seen the original.

somersethouse · 18/10/2013 12:22

Sorry, bloody spanish autocorrect, nothing comes out right.
