    I thought it WAS a comedy, UK TV at it's worst. Thank goodness I had my phone to look at as my wife watched that cack. Almost as bad as Vigil.

    Oh yeah, don't get me started on Vagisil. British having a go at 'Nordic Noir', takes gloomy to new depths. A big part of the problem for me is there are no characters I can bring myself to give a shit about.

    loved first series of Vigil but latest is awful

    triggerpoint much better
    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    Just finished Vigil.

    What utter crap. Drawn out, weak storyline. Whilst I watched, my finger was constantly hovering over the stop trigger.

    The first series was okay, unbelievable to every extreme but, entertaining.

    Trigger point was good.

    Looking forward to the next series of The Night Manager now

    'The Fog' (the proper John Carpenter one) is on Sky Arts channel at 2100. Good Halloween film.

    'Under Siege 2 - Dark Territory' on ITV4 at 2105 tonight.

    A chance to play the drinking game which is really simple - have a drink every time he kills a hijacker. Take it from me you will need a lot of cans. There are so many of them that if they'd got away with it, by the time they split the ransom money each man would be lucky if it would cover the petrol it cost him to drive to the meeting where they planned the crime.

    'The Taking Of Pelham One Two Three' is on 5 Action tonight at 2100.

    The proper one with Robert Shaw not the pathetic remake.

    Always surprised how many people have never seen it. Fantastic film. No doubt it will be cut for TV though. Never used to be but times have regrettably changed.

    Had to watch that again. Top film. No-one's ever replaced Walter Matthau. Or Robert Shaw.

    I watched it again. Those who made it an exciting watch are the film editors; without their skillful editing it would not be such an exciting watch, regardless of the key players.

    Agree, it's very well-paced.
