The BBC are *beep* useless and are probably never going to repeat this which is so annoying when I originally missed the second half of series 2 of Burn It. I never ever got to see it again as BBC3 or nobody ever repeats it. All they seem to want to repeat is endless repeats of Two Pints Of Lager.. and other crap.
Anyway I've been trying to find Burn It for ages and now I can tell you all check out thebox.bz. There is an Alladin's Cave of great old British TV on there. You'll find the long lost Burn It on there.
So balls to the BBC. Sod 'em! Get torrenting friends!!!

Hello Fellow Burn It fan, I live in the US and came across a clip of Burn It throught Youtube. The clip had only the title Jon and Tina, no description, no title, nothing to indicate the name of the show. All I had was the BBC Three logo on the screen, and I played Sherlock Holmes from there. My going on a wild goose chase thru cyberspace attests to the quality of the program. I desperately want to watch all the episodes available, however I know nothing of bit torrent. Is it possible to watch it anywhere else. Please contact me. [email protected]

Desperately Seeking Burn It.

Hi meeka, I think you are unlikely to find the brilliant Burn It anywhere else because the dozy a***holes at the BBC don't realise that there is a fanbase of a certain age group who actually want a DVD release of the 2 series' or -God forbid!- another series.
It was originally shown late on BBC3 weeknights and hardly got repeat runs then there was a tiny tiny bit of publicity for series 2 and it got shown on BBC2 but then it just got shelved.
The BBC surely know that people actually want to see this again (or in your case for the first time). It was probably the greatest drama for young 20s to 30s ever. It follows a great tradition of This Life (which- rightfully so- is regarded as a cult classic) and Teachers and a few more I've forgotten lol.
Really, the only thing I can suggest is to campaign the BBC for a dvd release (and another series!!) or hold out for the occasional good samaritan to post episodes on youtube.
Otherwise you can give me your email address and I can help you with my own dvd burnt copies (burnt, lol!!).
All the best.
