I watched the first of Planets last night on Iplayer, I percervered with the presenter knowing it was a BBC programme and could only improve. It covered the journey of the Horizon spacecraft and actually made Pluto sound interesting, along with chatting about Neptune and it's moon Triton. I know the presenter is a pretty intelligent guy but I think he trys to over simplify it too much for viewers and it then becomes mundane. Seeing Trebs and Chiefs notes above I will try and give LOD another try sometime, probably when I'm grounded indoors and can't go out over the next week, either that or just fall asleep. Think the last cop programme I ever watched was really good. about some bent female chief if I remember correctly that was trying to cover up for her husband (something like that anyway, just can't remember the name of it, now tell me that was LOD lol?
Don't bother it's a waste of time as it completely dies and becomes absurd. One of the worst endings you'll ever see.
That's Brian Cox. Funny thing is I like the way he simplifies it, I bloody need that If it's the series I'm thinking of please watch the 2nd episode on Mars where he compares the destiny of that planet with Earth's. A real eye opener. I know he may grate on you but it's a brilliant episode you won't regret it.
Don't get why you tar the whole series. Granted after the 3rd it turned to pants but the first 3 series on its own is excellent and you don't need to watch beyond that.
I suppose but it suggests the ongoing story and makes you want to find out what happens and that's where it all goes wrong. I can't remember if you don't have to watch behind 3 though and if that's the case then yes an excellent series.
I'd say even the fourth is half way plausible, but then after that it really goes downhill. The first three though, 100% top drawer. Just stop after Keely Hawes.
You don't. The only tenuous link which they used to keep the story going was balaclava man which is what ruined it. And it was only in the 5th series when they made the big play about 'H'. None of that was even a thing in the first 3 series. The real story was about AC12 and bent coppers and how far it went up. Should've finished it on series 3. Even the 4th was alright tbf but had nothing to do with the first 3 either.
It's the Stephen Graham one where it falls off a cliff and I'm a huge fan of the guy but that's the one where you watch it through and realise that nothing actually happened.
Yeah, it was an odd one that series. He was good in it, always is, but it was just stringing out the peartree/H thing, and that by then no one knew what the **** was going on.
It was strange that it gained huge amounts of fans at that point, loads of people decided to catch up and get into it only for it to go so wrong.
Think Ben Miller would be good for him to bounce off in these types of shows. Same with Dara o Briain. Add a little comedy to it along with their own knowledge
mall that time to explain it, then never how they could trick it other than build a super collider on the moon??
Started Ripley. Just starting episode 5 very good so far, visually stunning but crawls along slowly which won't work for some.
Yeah that's the guy, I never realised how old he was (56), he seems so much younger. Yeah I will try and remember to watch the Mars one.
Sucky couldn't play Pacman, he would lose concentration in seconds I am surprised, on second thoughts I am not, that non of you dudes know that a clit extends deep inside ending up as the g-spot
