NIGHTSLEEPER : SPOILERS thread ..

[the80sweregreat]

Thought I'd start one as it's all on the I player.
The ' cyber speak' tech stuff is hard to get your head around at times.
I'm on episode two so far.

Do not post any spoilers on blonds thread ..

I binged watched all of it until 3.30am this morning .

Just started episode 6, wasn’t planning on staying up this late.

It’s very cliched and is trying to be a lot of different genres all at once. And it’s so cheesy.

I used to work in the rail industry and there’s a lot of suspending my disbelief

I watched until the end as I wanted to see what happened

What a load of badly acted shite.

I watched after the first episode seemed good. However, the plot line has so many mistakes. Also, cyber security should have more than a handful working around the clock with no rest or food.

Or incident managing on your mobile on the Gatwick express

Utter rubbish.

I sat up till 4.am to finish it. So I could confirm it was rubbish.

(Exciting though! )

Anyway …

The script was turgid.

Directing clumsy and almost amateur.

Consequently actors I know to be excellent were made to look second rate.

I don’t mind so much about verisimilitude, or lack of. And I enjoyed the selection of characters presented. But it was a shame that one or two of the most appealing weren’t double bluffing as I’d hoped. And they picked the wrong person to throw under the erm … train.

Watched episode three today and still not sure who the mole is. A few red herrings are littered about though
I Feel sorry for the oil rig man :(
That was sad
Abby is struggling so much
I am enjoying it though as it's high octane , but the script is bad at times

Yes it's sooo bad but so good.

I'm on episode five now
It's gripping rubbish .. but quite addictive
I think Tobes is a baddie.

Was really excited to watch it but I'm struggling with the first episode. Think I'd rather be playing Minecraft 🤣

I was pretty disappointed by the end, it just gets worse

I didn't even finish the first episode!

Well, I've just finished this and I didn't not guess who the real baddie was.
It was very cheesy in parts and a bit too long , but hugely entertaining.

I mean, i didn't guess !
Don't know how to edit posts on here

I’ve just managed about 30 minutes of episode one and am thinking of going into acting in a sudden career U Turn, based on those performances 🤣

the bit where they are singing “foundations” via a satellite phone and with her on the Gatwick express ! God ! Utterly cringeworthy!

The baddy is one of the tech people, isn't it? Total guess based on about 30mins watching!

Very Corny moment with the boy and the old man's watch .. I did laugh at that one

Some of the actors are great though so I cannot imagine what went wrong here.

I was very surprised that there had been a relationship between jacket woman and her colleague.

I thought she was going on holiday with her female partner

I think that Abby was going away with her friend and she isn't her partner

Sorry , wrote on the wrong thread there !
Ignore that below

I've binge watched it now, very unusual for me but my conclusions are

• Pretty shite script with too much schmaltz trying to tug at the heartstrings
• Very technical so lots of terms went straight over my head

But

• actually very gripping and well filmed
• good twist at the end, did not see that coming

Assuming on here we can give spoilers, why was Abby not more angry/upset with Pev, he'd completely betrayed her and nearly killed so many people in London? By calling him back in she'd helped him do it all. It was pretty obvious half way through that Toby was dodgy.

So Pev had organised all the pram/bag nicking stuff and had blackmailed Jas?

I didn't guess Pav either !
He seemed on the level

Can we also discuss how no-one needed a wee at all? Bladders of steeeeeel 😂

I thought that Jason would take her tie off at least !
