    I wonder what the viewing figures will be like?

    Opening episode for Season 4 got something like 15 mil didn't it? I couldn't always work out whether the figures were for the UK or US audiences though.

    I hope the writing & action is upto scratch this season, i've enjoyed previous seasons but the diologue has at times been laughably bad and the action has grinded to a snails pace. Hoping this will be the best season yet!

    Are 2 episodes being shown tomorrow or are Fox showing the same episode again right after at 10pm?

    Think you're right actually. Can't seem to find any official UK ratings.

    Phew, thank G they didn't spend the season in 'sanctuary'. So glad they have gotten out in the first episode and we don't have to spend a whole season of them trying to escape.
    Sanctuary did feel a smaller scale than we were lead to believe which I think is due more to budget constraints rather than story.
    So glad they are actually just killing people rather than moralising all the time.

    Shame we didn't get to see Beth.

    It is so difficult not to watch the premier online and wait till tonight. I have little self discipline but have a great night watching with friends planned so I need to stay away from the fan sites. But the few I have seen say its a cracking episode and well worth the wait. Don't give up guys:)

    What a great episode and I love what they are turning Carol into, such a badass. I too am glad that they escaped in the first episode because too long would have been annoying. It was nice to see Cobblepot aka Penguin if only for a brief throat slashing moment.

    Not sure if anyone noticed but they guy Glenn let out who kept saying, "We're the same" was the same guy at the end of the episode in the flashback, just with more hair.

    so glad they didn't have Carol get shot by one of the goodie-gang when they mistook her in all her get up for a zombie :)
    btw: I wonder if in a future ep we'll get a character referencing the Syfy channel series :p

    It wasn't obvious to me, but I did wonder whether it was the same person.

    Was also good to see that other person back at the end too.

    Carol is
    the baddest bad ass who ever badded an ass.

    My eyes leaked at the reunion twixt her and Daryl. I too am glad they've dealt with escape from Terminus in one episode. I loved how ruthless Rick was. No pishing about, just gunning them down and leaving them as Walker bait.

    I didn't notice it myself but someone posted shots of both men's faces on ign showing the same tattoo's and it was confirmed on twitter by Scott Gimple as well I think just so people don't confuse him with a comic character.

    Right, time to swing at Glenn's head 1...2...
    Hang on a minute, I just need to answer a meaningless question
    OK, answered that, time to swing at Glenn's head 1...2...
    Hang on another minute, he wants to say something
    OK, heard what he has to say, time to swing at Glenn's head 1...2...
    Hold up, now Rick wants to say something
    Listened, now time to swing at Glenn's head 1...2..
    BANG! What was that?
    Probably nothing, time to swing at Glenn's head 1...2...

    Anyone who's seen the first episode - after the trailer for next week and the credits, who's the guy in the mask looking at the Terminus sign? I know I know him, just not sure where from, please help!

    That guy is:
    Morgan
    We've met him before, both in Series #1 and Series #4.
