The BBC should really stop wasting their money making trash like this. This and Spooks are two of their main shows, and they're two of the worst things on the BBC.

This and spooks are quite good, lets face it wazz, if you don't like it, there is a good chance most people will.

I didn't think the first episode was as good as previous seasons have been, less slick.

Got to admit I thought it was rubbish last night, but the blonde and the copper (was she in Rome?) are both fit so that's alright then.

(Last season of Spooks was good so :p Wazz)

I'm trying to remember the last BBC drama that was genuinely good. I'm pulling a total blank here, what have people liked recently other than the above?

nowhere near as good and to be honest it was easy to work out the twist. I liked previous ones where it seemed there was noway out and all of a sudden its all gone in their favour. this one was obvious right away. Still was great though and i will continue to watch it

Problem is it all goes downhill too fast. Spooks hasn't been good since the series where the old woman was revealed to be a traitor.

Agree that the twist was obvious, as soon as I saw
them attaching the wire
it was pretty clear what was going on. It wasn't crap, I thought some of the episodes last season were worse but lets hope they aren't all as predictable.

And I don't know about Emma and what's-his-face, they don't fit for me yet. Original crew was the best natch, then I liked Ashley Walters in S4, we'll see how these new folk turn out.

Edit - And Wazz, nothing... I haven't liked a drama on the beeb for quite some time. I would prefer they made more of things like Hustle than wank like Doctor Who and Torchwood though. :D (have to say I never watched Spooks but I'm pretty sure I would enjoy it)

Ashes to Ashes. And I'm looking forward to the new series of Survivors next week.

I see there are floods of people stating what dramas they enjoy on the BBC. ;)

It's a sad state for the corporation to be in when you can't even make a remotely decent adaption of Day of the Triffids. Anything they touch seems to turn to shit recently.

I didn't say it was brilliant, it had it's flaws, but as an updating of the tale it was good. Izzard stole the show though.

Hustle
Being Human
Survivors
Life On Mars / Ashes To Ashes

As well as a number of one-offs like The Quatermass Experiment and Day Of The Triffids.

They make some really good documentaries too.

A history of Britain
A history of Scotland
Nature
Ray Mears various series
Michael Palin's programs

It has an awful lot of dross too but then it has to cater for everyone.
