Christian Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 I saw it advertised and really fancied watching it. Is it a one off of a series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 Loved it - wasn't it super? Thin storyline, but the acting & the effects more than made up for it. Especially wonderful acting by John Sim & Kelly McDonald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I'm truly amazed and awed by Tim Roth having only one drink from his cup of coffee in the FOUR hours it took to make him up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzle Knit Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 David Almond is a brilliant author, my son was disapointed that he couldn't watch it as we don't have Sky - I think there's a freeview Sky channel though so hopefully we'll catch it on that.
