And you have a thread for the 9 pm show on ITV at exactly the same time!
I didn't start the thread for The Halycon

OK, sorry thought you did, as you have been championing it, 6 posts on that thread.

Clearly SW getting better ratings.

6 posts. Pathetic isn't. You are way ahead of me in regards to this thread.

Silent Witness is the BBC's biggest crime drama. It would be a bit of a shock if it wasn't winning its slot. Though it is down nearly 1m on last year.

Well.

Let's see:-

I said sorry. I made a mistake.
You relentlessly call me names, like pathetic, follow me around, you didn't watch SW live last night, and your contribution to this thread isn't about SW but to incorrectly call me names.

You whilst you incorrectly label me, you can't say sorry.

Check The ratings thread, criticism of BBC1- repeating MBB to quickly, check broadcasting, Critical on The One Show thread re BBC1 repeats, I know the search doesn't work well, so I have given you two recent places, but you continue to follow me around making incorrect statements about me on threads that you have no reason to post on, bar have a personal go at me.

I know how George felt on The Ratings thread when the ITV fans relentlessly had a go at him just as his opinions were different to the small niche of pro ITV fans. Part of this " welcome" was even to call me George.

Yes I posted here as I like SW, your six posts should be added to your pro support for the Halcyon, where even I helped you with details from TV listings magazines! Not respirated. . .

Oh look, it''s migrants all good and all victims.
The authorities all wicked, bad and corrupt.
Yep it's a BBC drama.
Really? It may have been far-fetched and a bit daft but I thought there were nasty people-smugglers and would-be migrants as well as sympathetic migrants, and some members of the establishment trying to help the vulnerable.

On The One Show now.


Emilia Fox and Liz Carr talk about what actually goes on behind the scenes at the Lyell Centre in Silent Witness and which one of them is a demon in the bingo hall.

Where did I call you names?

I can't believe you are complaing at bias from people, whilst being totally biased yourself.

And another onslaught.

Just.....drop it. Others do not want to read this.

Interesting..just visited The Ratings thread, where another poster has just replied to you, saying they may well leave DS posting, due to a reply from you.

Just cool it down. Please!

Back on topic.
I recorded this and gave up after five minutes, it's as bad as it ever was, my newspaper TV critic had the same opinion.
It has it's followers, they are welcome to it.

But that's not going to stop anyone saying it's rubbish if that's their opinion.

A programme according to those who find it poor, isn't going to improve with the knowledge of the ratings.

Why does Liz Carr wear a wig? She looks better without it.

The two immigration officers (the one who looks like Prince William & the other one) are prize idiots.

Very harrowing opening, very emotional.

Well played by lead actors.

Strong dramatic story.

She sounded like Benedict Cumberbatch then.

If they search vans like that, no wonder so many get through.

Honestly her character is getting nauseating with all this

I think some do, but I suppose there are so many coming through that its not feasible. I also thought they used sniffer dogs.

It is so unrealistic, the way the forensic team leap about solving crimes and leading the police around doing their job. The police would have crow-barred the van open at the end, not the forensic guy. Just makes it so frustrating to watch.

And saintly, never put a foot wrong Nikki preaching at us......grrrrrr!
Agree - forensic pathologists just don't get involved as much as this ! They split their time performing autopsies, gaining info from investigating officers, and testifying in court. Occasionally they may visit scenes of crime and accidents, but it's uncommon for most of them. And I'd bet money that you wouldn't see any genuine female forensic pathologist wearing make-up at work
