    Our Sky box has messed up and we've missed Ep 10, 11, 12. It recorded 13 onwards, but now we stuck with seemingly no means of catching up the gap.

    Those Arrow episode aren't available thru Sky on demand, and the DVD's aren't out yet, so we'll have to wait for the DVD release to get back into this.

    I guess the lack of on-demand is down to Warner Bros

    You might be able to find those episodes on line- try googling them.

    Is the oliver queen in arrow the same one from smallville but obviously different actor or is it just the name and that is where it ends?

    Based on the same character, but not the same continuity or "universe".

    Like asking if George Clooney's Batman is the same as Christian Bales.

    He saw a fishing boat and then lit the big fire he had prepared (repeated in the opening credits each week) and gets picked up.

    However it's pretty clear he doesn't spend all 5 years on the Island so he leaves at some point and then either returns (possibly just to set up his rescue) on his own or is exiled back there.

    I agree with this. I can't imagine he spends 5 years on the island with the other people there just hiding out and running away. He has to escape and that is where he learns Mandarin, Cantonese, Russian and god knows how many other languages. He must become more complete at fighting off the island too and work on his agility and strength etc because we already know, on the island, this is all non existant atm.

    As you say, he knows and does too much to have come to it on the island. I'm thinking who ever it was that trained Malcolm as the "bad guy" was also the one to train up Arrow as the "good guy" kind of scenario and he will be revealed to be some sort of Mega Hero/villain or something lol

    When McKenna said "Your work is here" I think that was supposed to mean she knows the truth

    Yeah, I thought that as well. Great episode tonight. I was sort of hoping the Huntress got away as it'll be a good character to revisit.

    Ok though I don't know what's going to happen in the show myself but without spoiling it Roy Harper is a long time established character in the Green Arrow comics he made his début in 1941 in fact he was one of the very first characters to appear after Green Arrow himself.

    As a fan of the comics I knew he would appear sooner or later but I'm surprised they did it this soon I was expecting him to show up about series 2

    At the end of yesterday's show the announcer said it was taking a break for a few weeks but to be fair that's only the it's doing the same in the States and otherwise the British showings would be ahead of the American ones

    I've said for a while that I think the Merlyns will end up having a Norman and Harry Osborn thing going on.

    Yes, the show is getting interesting. Some intriguing developments, especially with Tommy joining his father. Wonder how that will affect Laurel.

    How on earth can this be taking a break with just 3 or 4 episodes left? What goes through the minds of U.S tv execs.

    No wonder so many U.S shows lose their audience and get cancelled.

    Didn't realise it was taking a 3 week break - the last 4 episodes do run concurrently though, so maybe they've done it to build excitement for the run-in?. Who knows?. This is why I wouldn't mind waiting an extra few weeks for UK pace so that we get a full, unbroken run of episodes.

    Anyway, Arrow is confirmed for Season 2 so no need to worry about cancellation just yet ..

    Hooray! I'm glad there's going to be a second season. I really enjoyed the latest episode. Can't wait to see what will happen with Tommy and his father.
