    I enjoyed it, not for the story but for Kate Beckinsale and Alex Kingston. Yummy.

    Probably the worst program ever on telly. Plan9 from Outer Space the worst fim.
    The lovely Kate managed to be fragrant after plunging into danger in the jungle numerous times in fresh t-shirts and beautifully styled hair, so granted that was one redeeming feature. How would you have felt about having to produce such a crap script though?

    Wasn't there once a series about a cross channel ferry that was truly appalling?

    I don’t watch the soaps, although 2 voters separately remarked to me recently that I look like Phil Mitchell <doh>

    They can't have been Tory voters because at present there aren't many of those!

    It is very difficult to direct a play or tv programme when the script is poor. It was a shame because all the ingredients were there for a gripping series. But it just didn't work.

    No, the writers have done some good stuff, but this time they put in too many sub-plots, for instance the lesbian sex was silly, the nurse was completely unbelievable, but it ticked a box, as did a lot of the blood and gore. A string of cliches cobbled together, and a waste of a good caste.

    I will be directing Seasons Greetings by Alan Ayckbourn in Eltham in October. Also next year I will be directing Absurd Person Singular, by Ayckbourn also in Eltham. I have also put a number of Plays forward for Production at The Edward Alderton theatre in Bexleyheath. My Wife is co directing the Panto in January next year.

    Lesbian sex is not silly.

    You’ve turned many a woman into a lesbian

    But that’s not a good thing ?

    They were heterosexual until the point you appeared at their heels, panting like a randy chihuahua.

    I'd go even further and say that in this case the lesbian sex was extremely silly.
