Anybody watch this? One of the best thing on at the moment even though i'm not sure this series is as good as the first two. Worth watching all the same. For all you who haven't seen it, a vampires werewolves and ghosts thing, but dont let that put you off. Typical of the bbc though, get a half decent series and stick it in the backwater of bbc3 whilst putting loads of crap on the main channel. Though, now I've said that, why do I care what side its on?

I am not against a U.S. version - The Office was two different shows. I would prefer just seeing the original, though. And the acting on the American show had me, um, howlin'.

What an ending to the series. I was in bits when it finished.
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

You said, "buns" now Jack'll be angry!
Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness.

caught an early episode I hadn't seen before, last night, another buns mention. the ghost woman meets some post punk styled eighties dude who enjoys being a ghost and wanders around quoting smiths lyrics and suchlike. When it dawns on her that there must be reason for her still being around, as opposed to where all the rest of the dead people are, she says she "has to do something, a bit like a quest" and he says, "like collecting echo and the bunnymens japanese imports?".

Just thought I'd mention it. I wouldn't buy the whole series just for that though. But it did make the missus laugh.

Perhaps we need a new thread (relates to something our ghostie said about not goung to buy the eva petersen album just because its got the sarge on it) how about, albums/singles, telly series and films I've bought or been to see just because they mention echo and the bunnymen, or has one of them in it. Anywone seen that thing Mac's in?
