Anyone else annoyed that SKY One in their wisdom are not showing this in real time.

When has 24 ever been shown in real time? I mean, in the US the ads are factored into the countdown clock. An episode of 24 is actually only about 42 mins long. So essentially, you've always been ripped off on this count.

And SKY normally show enough adverts and promos to make the episode last a whole hour. There were a number of definite jumps tonight, and that sort of defeats the whole purpose of the episode. I do something else whilst the ads are on during "24" but I always try and watch an episode so that it fills the whole 60 minutes. That is half the fun.

Couldn't give a fig about real time or otherwise. Jack's back - and he's not alone, as the shock revelation of the identity of one of the baddies left Bauer breathless and me going "what? What? WHAT???"

Also interesting to note that in this ever nearing post Bush world, Jack's methods are being called into serious question. Silly people - they should realise by now that having a borderline psychopath super patriot as your prime secret agent is always going to get a touch messy.

Great stuff!

Agreed old chap. Oh, and sorry for editing your post. I've just realised that you're a couple of episodes ahead of us.

We had hours 1 and 2 shown in an edited together format just last night, Patrick old chap. Sky television's now traditional way of premièring a new series of Happy Jack's 24 Hour Torture Party... Er, I mean a new series of 24

Very Happy

Ah, well, we had episodes hours 1 and 2 shown Sunday evening. Last night, after watching a 'new' episode of Top Gear, we got hours 3 and 4.

And I think 3 and 4 were far better than 1 and 2.

And that's where we're going to start lagging at least a week behind you now. From "Hour 3", (next week) we're down to a single episode a week.

Although I may find myself forced to resort to "other means", to bring myself up to being practically in step with you. I haven't decided yet.

Indeed he did. CTU is no more.

Just caught up with hours 1 & 2 on Sky Anytime - no adverts and no hideous DOG - and in HD. I think the rest has done the series good. I really enjoyed it. Utterly ludicrous and the husband and I just chortled our way through it. Janis is the new Chloe and Tony's gone bad. Terrible CGI planes. And who didn't see the Motobo twist coming. And wasn't Sean Callery's music simply ace!

Indeed. In fact quite often the music is the highlight of an episode.

Borderline Sid? Jack is well over the border and heading towards the Capital City. It definitely looks as if Agent Spin-Off Series Walker is on her way to meet him.
