h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I think clzoomer is referring to the recent Guy Ritchie film rather than the new BBC series.

ah!

I think if you're discussing the tv thingy, I'll just unsub and patiently wait till some French TV channel decides to broadcast it.

I liked the movie too. RDJ...
*wipes drool off keyboard*

So what did people think? I thought it was ace, and I cannae wait until we get some more.

Surely, surely the Beeb is going to commsion some more? Surely?

New series has been commissioned. Not sure whether Moriarty was 'over-acted' or not or whether it fits in with the general feel of the show.

Not watched it yet as I will download it from the iPlayer. Can't wait though.

oooh, I was out tonight , forgot it was Sherlock night, will catch it on iPlayer

Morinarity you dirty rotten swine you. Have you deaded that nice Mister Homules?

really enjoyed that. Moriarty was a surprise so well done on that - although not convinced by the character yet. Interesting they used a swimming pool which worked within the series plot - but also opportunity for Reichenbach Falls stuff. Dunno. felt a shame they didn't conclude it in some way whilst leaving it open. But hey, not bad at all! 90mins of entertainment which is what it is meant to be so good stuff I say

Hmmm.

Quality entertainment with a cheesy cliffhanger ending. The (mini)-series has been most entertaining, but the ending of the third part just smacks of 'give us a new season' Americana.

it kind of spoiled the programme, and the whole series, being so cheesy.

So who played Moriarty in the BBC series, then? You can spoil all you like, I've no chance of ever getting to see it till the DVD box set comes out and by then I'll have forgotten this thread.

And, on the same subject, any more news about Brad Pitt playing Moriarty in the follow up of the film version?

It's still not available for download on the iPlayer. What are they playing at!

I couldn't download last weeks' ep till Thursday. It's a bit annoying.

Really enjoyed it, especially the multiple mysteries for Holmes to solve which kept the story crackling along at pace. Even liked Moriarty who seems to have, erm, divided fans.

Im afraid I yelled at the TV after Sundays episode. I understand the need for cliff-hangers to keep people coming back, but I promise I was coming back anyway... I now cannot wait till next Sunday, I desperately need to see the next episode.

Fraid you will be a tad disappointed then dude. That *was* the last of the series.

Who the heck knows when the next episode will be....

How can that be the last of the series, there were only 3 episodes?

3 episodes does not a series make.

If it's any consolation, I saw the writers on BBC this morning. They were saying there definately will be more. Just not yet.

Three episodes makes a mini-series. US Television has those from time to time.
But even a series that runs six years can leave things unresolved.
I'm still a bit bummed out by the way LOST ended.
I thought for sure they would say who built the giant statue of the hippopotamus god. They never did.
