Excellent show, I'm still in shock. I loved it and want more.

is it gonna be a series does anyone know? i thought it was really good.

reply

its a pilot
there are a series of pilots all on the same time each week. i guess if they get good feedback a series gets made.

reply

Personally I enjoyed it but think it missed the mark, I was expecting far more speedy craziness like the Boosh when in fact it was a bit slow and talky. It has potential but it needs to be chopped in half and speeded up as I got a bit bored in places. Still good idea :)

reply

6 pilots have been made. BBC Scotland have enough money to make one into a series. Feedback will dictate which one.

reply

Where do we send feedback too?

That was so random, it was just incredible. I don't really know what to say.

i was bent double watching this because it was so good, the satire really bit hard and the plot was ridiculous but not too much so that it made no sense, also, Carl Weathers is back on form!

i cant watch Lost anymore, it boggles my mind too much

It's odd - probably needs to grow on me, as I was expecting some very good action and drama.

R.I.P. Jeremy Beadle: 1948-2008. You've given me many hearty laughs.

Definite potential but I feel it could've been a lot better if it was a tiny bit shorter, maybe 45 minutes instead of 60.

Loved the more satirical moments though - future BBC News in particular, showing that Chris Morris and Brass Eye was right on the mark - this is where TV journalism is heading.
