    Fantastic that this is back!

    Missed the first 15 minutes though because I had it set to record. :mad:

    It is an excellent series. Enjoying it. It is on again tomorrow at around 11.30 on RTE 2 so you can watch the first 15 minutes then :)

    Christ forgot how grim this was!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,036 ✭✭✭nomdeboardie


    The scenes in the radioactive fields were approaching the grimness of Begotten :pac:

    First two episodes done well. Felt like they rowed back the Dystopian feel from the end of season 1... but like.. that gives them scope to come back at it hard towards the end of the season.

    Anyone know why this isn’t on the RTÉ player? I was looking forward to watching season 2. It seemed to be up the other day but it’s been taken down now.

    It seems to be only available to play in the app, not on the website. I was looking for it to watch the first 15 minutes that were missing from the recording since it started earlier, and could only get it to play on the iPad in the app.

    Strange; I got the first episode running (after the ads) just now on my laptop (Windows 10, Chrome browser), but there must be glitches for some setups

    Not that impressed so far. First episode was definitely decent, was a nice introduction back to the show, but I found the second ep very slow


  • Registered Users Posts: 713 ✭✭✭CassieManson


    The opening two episodes of season 2 start on RTE 2 tonight.

    Did they show 2 episodes? My virgin media box only recorded one.

    Yes they showed two episodes on RTE. My virgin box only recorded the first episode too . Luckily I stayed awake for the second episode

    Wow the ending to this week's episode Wow.

    Wow the ending to this week's episode Wow.

    Was nearly screaming at the tv in the end.
    I honestly thought she would make it and the rest of the series would be about them trying to get their daughter back. I didn't see it coming (stupidly)

    Closing mine too but wasn't prepared for spoilers !


  • Registered Users Posts: 862 ✭✭✭Marje


    That felt like a long time without ad breaks - not a lot happened yet.

    It is a slow pacing show, just have to have the patience to keep watching.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,138 ✭✭✭✭iamwhoiam


    Oh noooo , not again . I can't bear it for much more .


  • Registered Users Posts: 862 ✭✭✭Marje


    Not too sure if there is need for spoilers but
    June's life is going to be absolute hell if she's sent back to Aunt Lydia

    I don't think I would be able to handle watching another round of that
