If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Take that back. :Jedi:

The first series was ace with Fred. Admittedly, it wasn't as good after that.
I never forgave the BBC for "Dick & Dom's 'Ask the Family' ".
what were you doing watching Dick and Dom??
In 2005 the BEEB revived an iconic programme of our youth. They had D&D present it.

It was a fckg catastrophe.

The 3rd series of Luther is the weakest of the 3 imo. Still the best thing on tv tho...

Even that 30 minute cameo livened up the show ... but do you not feel she brings an unrealness to it all ? Almost a scence fiction quality ??

Excellent value but the whole programme alters with her presence.

I'd never met her previously not having seen the first two series (given my propensity to watch all things cop I don't really know why!) but yes, she turned it quite surreal. She was almost Purdey-like striding around the screen.

Oh, and on the strength of loving S3 I've just ordered the BBC DVD set of S1 and S2 off eBay. Can't say no at just £12.

the S3 Alice was a slight "comedy" exaggeration of the real Alice in S1 and S2 - I guess they had to give her centre-stage being as she was only in it for half an episode! You'll enjoy her in S1 and S2 even more... (unless the S3 version has altered your perspective... I guess it means there will be no surprises when she first appears, and knowing who/what she is will lose you some of the drama of S1...)

Well you could've said no and signed up to the months free trial of Netflix and watched them there...

yeah, kind of put that gaping plot hole to the back of my mind - the fact she can just slay whoever she likes and walk out of prisons and mental homes without any reprecussions...

You wouldn't imagine for long. ''I always wanted to be a widow''

Would be great while it lasted, though. Grrrrrr!!!!!
