If you watched it last night dont forget its part TWO tonight
BBC1 9pm

Thought it was pretty good, Eddie Izzard plays a good villian

i remember the original being better , but they took longer over building the plot and characters .

IMHO I feel that the book is amazing. The BBC thing seems to be totally different from the book. I don't recall Eddie Izzards character at all. I am hopefully going to watch part 2 tonight.

yea weve been watching that.. good stuff - reminds me of that other small series that was on not so long back - 'survivors' small band sets up local government etc no carnivorous plants tho

I read the book at school, and remember being riveted to it. I almost fell asleep watching it last night, and didnt remember my imagination being quite so boring!!

I also enjoyed the book, but haven't seen the film. I thought "28 Days Later" was a good alternative interpretation of the storyline.
