me too....been eagerly awaiting the return of this Series..

Even the trailer for it looks amazing, and the haunting rendition of With or Without You played in the background puts shivers down my spine every time...

Roll on Sunday 9pm...

Goldengirl......Those dark winter evenings are always filled by good tv for us "saddos"


After a summer of repeats, the winter months always bring something much more entertaining..

Xfactor
I`m a Celebrity
Dancing On Ice...to name but a few

The Body Farm started on BBc1 last night, I`ve recorded it but havn`t seen it yet, its a spin off from waking the dead another really good series that they`ve now stopped making ..

Nicky my OH has recorded for me also The Body Farm.

We are great viewers of the following channels as they
provide good programmes afternoon and evenings:

Universal
Alibi
Sky Atlantic
Sky Living

Like you repeats are a bit boring and if the summer weather is not
up to much (which in Aberdeen) it hasn't been this year you need some
good shows.

Like you Rita am so looking forward to the next era in time in Downton.

Golden Girl... Just watched Body Farm..very good, just getting used to the charecters, but seems pretty good....

must agree about Sky Atlantic..

They`ve been repeating my all time favourite show ER since earlier this year....right from the Pilot episode and every episode of every series on Monday to Friday...{ think they have an omnibus edition at the weekend}


Currently on series 7 ..or is it 6...? I have it on series link and am about 10 episodes behind.....for a programme that started c1994 its amazing how many bits i remember, I try and watch an episode most weekdays....my little time of pure self indulgance....

Piglets Pal...must agree how did we ever manage before Sky +...as inventions go its right up there with the wheel for me, alongside the Internet...... lol...

Hello all,

PigletsPal, OH over the moon re info on the cast of New Tricks,
he's a great fan.

Nicky haven't seen Body Farm yet but come the week-end will
catch up with it.

Uzzi buy that dish gal you don't want to miss any of the series.

Matthew agree such a beautiful piece of music.

OH and I are also great fans of Cold Case and will miss the blonde
girl in the series (can't remember her name at the moment).

Hi
The body farm is really good, it is like waking the dead which was just as good.
Downton can't wait i love looking at the antiques they have in the rooms.

Nicky!!! I thought I was the only one who watched repeats of ER from the beginning. I loved it then and love it now, had forgotten a lot of what went on. :-

Am looking forward to Downton Abbey as well. BCXX

BC....

How great to find a fellow ER fan..there dosn`t seem to be many of us left....

Just watched Mark greene and Elizabeth Cordays wedding episode today..........like i said i`m a couple of weeks behind with it...

Everything about ER is so well done..... from the scripts to the actors, the storylines and charecters, and the way they managed to portray so much emotion at the end of so many episodes with a poingnant { sp?} piece of music over the closing last few minutes....absolutely brilliant........... must get the box set of DVD`s when they become cheap enough..I think it was around £150 for the entire set last year...they will get cheaper year by year...maybe i should stick it on my Xmas list?.

Hi Jean,Nicky and all,

Watched Body Farm last night and must say once we
got into it and sussed out the characters we enjoyed it.
Looks like a good series and different from anything we
have seen.
Never watched Waking the Dead Jean.

Anyway Downton tonight, looking forward to it. :-)
