    Lots of down sides, they're always upside down for starters.

    I'm not sure her head is on the right way round as it is mate, as it stands it looks like we'll be planning a wedding before too long.

    Hopefully she remains blissfully ignorant as to how much of an imbecile I am.

    Congrats, is she gonna move here or you gonna move down under?

    I've gotten away with it so far mate, as long as you make it sound clever and nobody's around to correct you, these females will believe anything... well mine will.

    I think it will be in Thailand summer of 2017 if all goes to plan, engaged when I see her in Melbourne next month. Got her a ring a couple of weeks ago, shiny as f** but the size of an anorexic flea. Then I need to try and get my career sorted out over here so I can move over there or demand she moves here.

    Being 10,000-11,000 miles apart means a s**t load of planning gets done.

    That and skype sex.

    I've watched all seven episodes so far of The Missing - I know it isn't for everyone but me and the missus have been glued to it. The most difficult part is the timeline, there is constant toing and froing between the present and eight years past, once you work out what's what it becomes easier. The last episode is screened next Tuesday, looking forward to it. It might all still be on BBC IPlayer if anyone is interested.

    Agreed mate, I think the script tries to be a little bit too clever and a lot get's lost because of it. The make up and wigs and stuff save it to an extent but it doesn't explicitly tell you what timeline you're watching a great deal of the time.

    Brilliant though.

    Absolutely mate, don't want to put in any spoilers for anyone but we are still left guessing as to whodunit. Some great characters in there....Malik Suri, Ian Garrett and Julien Baptiste etc.

    My favourite is the young French female detective....ding dong :emoticon-0152-heart

    I know one thing Disco, I wouldn't have fancied being the poor bugger who had to edit all of that in the right order. What a headache that must have been.

    Christ, mate. I've done a bit of editing for an ad here and there. That's maybe 12 set ups with a couple of cameras and it had me pulling my hair out.

    Their editor/s deserve a bafta for getting what sense out of it that they have.

    Garett was an utterly brilliant, utterly horrific character. I forget the lads name but my favourite is the lad who's medication has just stopped working and his "tendencies" might start coming back.

    I think they've nailed his shame, his desire to change, his childishness and his vulnerability. Makes you like at the sickness from the other side and you feel sorry for what's actually just a human suffering from a disturbing illness.

    Aye, the comparison between Garret and Vincent Bourg couldn't be greater. One wanted to stop and the other wouldn't. What a slimy but enthralling character Garret is.

    You know, I'm enjoying this series so much that I really don't want it to end. Then again, it will be good to see it all finally unravel.

    I don't see a happy ending mind. If I'd written it I know how I'd have finished it!

    I think the sly buggers might have filmed various endings. Just to keep us in suspense. Or suspenders in Ian Garret's case.

    I'm pretty sure they'll have filmed at least two. Not since Eastenders did that who shot thingy on his doorstep, then who pushed thingy off a cliff and the other thingy down the stairs and then who thingy did a paternity test for has there been this much suspense in English TV!

    Thank **** I don't watch eastenders, I don't think I could cope with it.

    Sounds fantastic mate, apart from the Skype sex, I wouldn't wanna use your iPad after you've used it.
