Sorry  :-[

Not that I gave away anything you'd not guess the moment you saw the "characters", but sorry anyway

Well at least I know that I haven't missed out on anything....
 
Ellied - I wasn't going to watch it, I don't have the time to watch hours of television.... so you are forgiven by me too. My remark was meant to be  :-J  anyway....

Saw it on I player...enjoyed it but felt that it didnt need the "Up helier" bit which was put on specially for the film production (according to the radio prog that trailed it)

..........which was SO pathetic, with just a few people trying to look and sound like a big crowd  ::)   They did have footage of last year's uphelly-ah at the end which was obviously convincing.
 
Overall I was disappointed with the script and the casting, but it was good to have a drama set in Shetland to remind us of our furthest reaches  :thumbsup:

I'll forgive you.  Just this once.   ;D

Then sadly I am doomed, I take a lot of forgiving, can't seem to help putting both feet in it on a regular basis  ::)

But thank you for the reprieve  :bouquet: I was  :unwell: at the time and not thinking straight - more than usual  :dunce:

Tbh I don't think you spoiled my viewing and I wasn't really annoyed.   ;D   Hope you're feeling better now and don't worry about your feet.  Loads of people can't help putting their feet in things.  Better than constantly having their noses in things.  But please don't anyone tell me what's happening  in Corrie because that would upset me.

No worries on that score, I don't watch Corrie, think I test watched a couple episodes back in the 80s but never caught the bug and have since tried and given up on several other soaps because they got into competing trainwrecks at Christmas rather than the original development of ordinary lives concept that made soaps unique.

Me I'm a US crime fan instead, tho I'm suffering serious doubts about how long I can cope watching Ted Danson pretend to be a serious actor while advertising Cheers re-runs and the latest CSI at the same time - not that anybody can replace Grissom, but this is an insult to intelligent crime drama  :(   Still have NCIS, Bones, Dexter and Criminal Minds to keep me going tho ;)  The murders part is less dramatic than the soaps and the characters have more "real" issues from one season into the next, way more interesting  ;)

From the trailers it looks as if it's gone all dark and Scandinavian  ::) - not that I haven't enjoyed The Bridge and the others  :thumbsup:   Looking forward to it - spinning time  :spin:
