I'm quite excited, the advert looked good. We only get e4+1 though so I'll have to watch it later than everybody else.

a wee summary please !

southeastalien · 28/10/2008 19:08

um, zombies seemed to appear from nowhere. the all attacked the big brother house, including davina, our hero (i'm guessing) is that ray winstone's daughter who is the show's runner.

she managed to get into the (blissfully ignorant of the zombies) bb house. and a couple of the housemates were eaten by a zombie after opening the doors to the dark camera corridor when they didn't believe miss winston.

think that was it so far.

loved the big appearance by ashleen. i'm sure something is going on with her and charlie brooker.

Wendyjayb · 28/10/2008 19:57

I thought it was rather good

Gobbledigook · 28/10/2008 22:12

ShinyHappyPurpleSeveredHeads · 29/10/2008 15:45

mumnosbest · 29/10/2008 16:11

thanx invisiblespook. Can now enjoy my night out!

BashfulSpookyHappy · 29/10/2008 17:25

After watching this, DH has finally seen the wisdom in having a zombie plan. Unfortunately, his plan is rubbish (run to the pub) so we're doomed. Sigh....

Not a hugely original show, no, but just the kind of stuff I love, heh heh heh!!

Gobbledigook · 30/10/2008 09:41

Not seen last night's yet - got it on Sky+.

Am LOVING it - but then I love zombie films!
What about werewolves too? LOVE Dog SOldiers!

TheInvisibleSpookDidIt · 30/10/2008 12:57

Oh this program's great

Lomond · 30/10/2008 13:07

""Oh dear god I haven't got a Zombie plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

TheInvisibleSpookDidIt · 30/10/2008 13:12

rofl Lomond.

Well I think dh's now needs revising as he didn't think zombies could run this fast!!

Though we now know they can't climb even the smallest of gates, so that could be used.

smurfgirl · 30/10/2008 16:49

Still loving this!

Invisiblespook I agree the zombies do seem very easy to stop and much less determined than in other zombie films I have seen. In other films being inside a house does not make you safe but it seems to there...

TheInvisibleSpookDidIt · 30/10/2008 17:02

yeah- can't climb/ open doors and water sends them into fits. But they can run really fast

I think we need to tell the writer he may have a few zombie facts wrong

bongosmum · 30/10/2008 17:19

oh god i just found this thread...i thought i was mental having a zombie escape plan!!! did anybody hear about a sheriff in america who had been stockpiling chainsaws in case of a zombie attack?!
did anyone lol when that fat producer escaped the toilet cubicle and the guy in the wheelchair tried to attack him? i love a good zombie outbreak!

bongosmum · 30/10/2008 17:37

solid gold...that link just made me cry with laughter..have to keep it down or my zombielike husband will be wondering what's going on!

smurfgirl · 30/10/2008 17:44

I quite like the fact that a window/door/v/low fence keeps them away from you, makes me feel safer for when thezombie attack does happen.

I can't think of a zombie plan because there has not been an accurate representation of them yet - can they open doors? do they run mega fast a la 28 days later. I need some consitencey so I can plan!

TheInvisibleSpookDidIt · 30/10/2008 17:51

Well dh says they don't run fast, but I think he has not done enough research. He thinks he can just walk through them with a baseball bat and defeat them all

I disagree with that. However the common denominator with all zombie films seems to be the lack of brains, so as long as your plan is smart, you can survive.

{grin]

I love a good zombie discussion.

Have to go to work now though, night all!!

bongosmum · 30/10/2008 17:55

a low fence!!!? me thinks that would be useless as their hunger increases - also,how long before out of boredom you'd stick a limb over said fence as a dare?
