SSHHHHHHHHHH! I didn't get to watch it last night - I was being force fed dirty beer!  ;) Don't tell me the plot yet.  ::)


There again surely an Avenger deserved being blown up!  ;)

Feel the same as you Martin - Episode 3 is not on regular TV next week, so I will have to wait to see it.  Knowing this, I may well give it a miss.

Why blow up such a car?  >:( >:(

Don't it is still a good episode.

I'll watch the rest tonight.

I thought most people had DTV of some form now.

The same car was in the last series as well, I did a search.

Have you tried?

I am in an official no Freeview area, but I was in the OnDigital reception area. Now I have worked it out the postcode checker is sponsored by Sky >:(. I had had DTTV now for over 7 years and my main problem was needing to change the mast head amp to a lower powered one.

Been there since TV was invented!
I have heard some good reports about digital indoor aerials & was thinking of trying one otherwise I guess it's a new one.
