I don't know about the rest of you but I couldn't care less who Liz's father is anymore.

If it's Red after all then we've been all around the mulberry bush for nothing all these years.

His obsession with her is creepy either way.

Yep. Getting a little 'samey' for me too. Will probably stick with it though

I hope it's not Red. I hope his "I never lie to you" holds. On the other hand, that suggests Lizzie's mum was screwing someone else at the same time she was married to Kirk and having some kind of relationship with Red. Since she was a spy, maybe she got pregnant as part of her job.

One thing I'm convinced of is Red isn't the father due to so much being made of it and pretty much everyone thinking he is. I'd love to know what red whispered in kirk's ear. No doubt we'll find out eventually.

I am now wondering if genetically Red is her father, but he claims he was a different man back then. His history was of being a good guy, in the navy and likely to become an admiral, until something happened that caused him to disappear for a few years then reappear as a bad guy. So perhaps he claims he is no longer the man who fathered her. I hope not, because that would be lame.

I don't know what Red whispered to Kirk, but I can only suppose it involved Kirk having another child. Maybe Lizzie got swapped for Kirk's child at birth, or something. She apparently remembered being brought up in his household. Something very hinky must have happened with the mother back then.

Anyone know when this is back after the Christmas break? And is it moving to Sky One?

It resumes in the states on 5th January, so hopefully we'll get it soon after. Why do you ask about it moving to Sky One?

It definately is moving to Sky One. It was said in the closing credits of the last episode.

Maybe a sign of Sky rebranding Living or closing it completely.

Surprised it wasnt put on Atlantic.

I thought they said so either before or after the last episode.

I usually stop playback before the end credits so missed that announcement; so thanks for mentioning it. I have reset my SL+ on my Tivo to "any" channel so it picks it up from Sky1 or I may have missed it!

Yes, it’s moving to Sky 1 – it was announced at the start of the last episode (but not over the closing credits).
Not entirely sure why, it’s usually Sky Living’s highest rated programme each week so it’s certainly not a demotion. Maybe they’ve seen how popular it is on Sky Living and think they can increase that even more by moving it to Sky 1? Mid-season is a weird time to do it though. But I have always thought it was more of a ‘Sky 1’ type show...

As for when it returns – Sky have confirmed (on Facebook) it’s back in March. So it appears they are taking the mid-season break now, as opposed to late-February when it does so in the US (to make way for the spin-off). But that should mean that when it does return to Sky we’ll get the remaining episodes uninterrupted and still get the finale at around the same time as the US.

Moving to Sky 1 is definitely a "promotion" isn't it?

Although we can only speculate at why it’s moving from Sky Living to Sky 1, it’s certainly not due to poor ratings (as I’ve said, it’s consistently one of Sky Livings top 3 programmes each week).
Looking at the top ten rated programmes of Sky 1 and Sky Living each week, although the most watched programmes sometime have a similar number of viewers, the total number of viewers overall is always higher for Sky 1. So moving The Blacklist to Sky 1 will give it a larger audience to entice. The biggest mystery for me though is why are they moving it mid way through it’s 4th season.

Tend to agree. The Red/Liz relationship's verging on tedious now.

Would be fun if they switched things up so that Red is actually Tom's father rather than Liz's, especially if they're both unaware. Don't think any of the plot lines have precluded this?
