Make of this what you will but it got the second highest ratings on any E4 show I believe

erm...interesting Mat... I think I am going to record it...it is supposed to be on the same lines as 28 Days Later I think so might be worth watching. & anything seeing Big Brother contestants being eaten must appeal to some people surely! :D

I've heard people at work talk about nothing else all week apart from Dead Set... it's probably worth a watch in that case! I haven't seen it but would like to.

I did the same Mat...will get round to watching sometime. I watched the film, 'Recount' was it called about how Bush cheated to get to the Whitehouse in 2000. Although I dont doubt some of it is pretty true, it looked like it had been made by the Democratic party!! :laugh

Back to Dead Set.....
I watched episodes 1 & 2, unimpressed, thinking that it MUST get better as the 'plot' unfolded..........so I watched episode 3.......it didn't, so I gave up with it.
I thought some of the camera movement was SO extreme, you couldn't make out what was going on. Maybe it was supposed to be like that, but it didn't work for me I'm afraid. :Blackl1

I agree with Sam's comment above.
