well, 2 hours on the 12th but you get the idea!

Am going to have to think up a new 24 name....and will need to recap last season and Redemption before monday but thought I would be first in with a thread.

Right, I have a big problem.
I am going on holiday with my mum and DD's next week. To Africa. So I will not only miss the 24 episode in 8 days, but as I am going to stay with her tomorrow I will also miss tomorrow nights.
I am not happy.
I might sneak out and drive the 20 miles to my sisters to watch her Sky and leave DD's asleep (I hope) at mums.
But I will not be logging back onto MN until after I have seen them (DH is sky+ing them) so will speak to you all sooooooon.

Only watched last mondays episode last night, so couldn't check the thread until now. Actually, I watched half on monday and then fell asleep and only had a chance to finish last night. My excuse is that DC3 (still a baby) is not a good sleeper at the moment, but in my defence, it was not the most exciting episode ever.

Jack - I thought he meant Palmer too and was v confused for a minute. Thought I had missed something!

Am still living in hope that Tony is really a good guy under some sort of deep cover...but surely no undercover work is worth killing so many people over.

Can't work out if Olivia is good or bad. Such is the nature of 24 - DH and I are constantly trying to guess the bad person and twist in plot. Does anyone think Ethan will come back? Thought he was evil for the 1st few episodes, but then seemed to come good!

audreyraines · 10/05/2009 20:18

i still think olivia is just a bit dumb and power hungry rather than particularly evil, but i could well be suprised.

Jack, you do have a problem... how will you survive?

JackBauerKillsPigs · 10/05/2009 22:13

I dont know

I really don't. I am going to sisters tomorrow so will be abel to watch that one though....

Although the hot sun and lovely beach in Tunisia might distract me

PlumBumMum · 11/05/2009 16:21

Jack there is no need to rub it in

audreyraines · 11/05/2009 17:37

jack shall i join you? i'd gladly even miss an episode or two for some sun and a beach ...

BlingDreaming · 11/05/2009 18:02

If you were really Jack you'd drive to Tunisia's local tv station and threaten someone with your thumbs until they showed it on your hotel TV...

Wuss.

sockmonkey · 12/05/2009 07:04

Chloe's wobbly bottom lip!

I am reeeeeeally hoping it wasn't Aaron who planted the bomb in Jonas's car. I really don't think I could cope with that.

We are getting scarily close to the end now

audreyraines · 12/05/2009 08:53

did the guy just go ahead and kill hodges? that would be stupid if the money wasn't wired. olivia olivia, in over her head.

sockmonkey · 12/05/2009 11:55

I bet it wasn't really the hitman. No professional would do that without being paid (Look at me sounding like I know LOL)
As long as it's not Aaron I'm not bothered. It could be the cleaning lady... just don't let Aaron be bad too.

audreyraines · 12/05/2009 13:47

will be mortified if aaron is that loyal to annoying olivia. sigh. what's next? jack goes bad ...

PlumBumMum · 12/05/2009 19:10

Don't think it was aaron, or the hitman but think Olivia is going to get the blame

Maybe ER guy knows the baddies??and told then Hodges was still alive

sockmonkey · 13/05/2009 09:40

I hope she does get the blame.
ER Guy! LOL. That's what I call him.

orangina · 13/05/2009 09:58

Dubenko. That's ER guy isn't it (dives into thread as a relative unknown without 24 styloe name....)?

Olivia is evil and naive. And so annoying!

sockmonkey · 13/05/2009 10:25

I have no 24 style name either.

I still can't warm to President Taylor either. She looks too much like Dora the Explorer for me.

orangina · 13/05/2009 12:30

And does anyone know how Jack is going to survive until the next TWO series?!?!?!

(Am also loving Renee's lovely bouncy shiny hair after what must be the worst 22 hours of her career.....)

umbungo · 13/05/2009 16:12

thank you everyone on this thread, after reading most of it, i realise that me and DH are just completely normal fans.

(it spooky that so much of whats written on here is been said btween me and DH! i even call Bill the Silver Fox!)

audreyraines · 13/05/2009 18:49

umbungo -you're welcome, not sure if we're 'normal' though

PlumBumMum · 14/05/2009 19:38

Don't worry orangina I have 2 24 names but can't be bothered to go and name change unless Audrey needs reminded that Renee is the new woman in Jacks life

audreyraines · 15/05/2009 07:37

eh, there's no room for anyone else in jack's life but audrey!

sockmonkey · 15/05/2009 16:51

is anyone else feeling slightly disturbed at liking Jack now we know he's a grandad? Will series 8 having fighting crime in his slippers?

audreyraines · 15/05/2009 17:48

eh, i'm not phased. george clooney is also old enough to be a granddad (even if he's not actually), and he's still top of my list (alongside jack).

sockmonkey · 16/05/2009 18:53

You cant have both audrey... that's just greedy.

audreyraines · 16/05/2009 20:32

hey, it's just a list. george is not the committment type!

sockmonkey · 17/05/2009 07:08

and with Jack there is a strong chance you will end up dead or in a coma... or have very clean bouncy hair and a plaster on your neck
