Thought we should have a thread for discussion/conjecture as it was fun last time.

Please restrict yourselves to only discussing the episodes that have so far aired on UK tv (ie downloaders keep shtum!).

It seems to be back on form.

Not yet, but there's no bra-shunning large breasted woman taking her place so she'll probably turn up.

Chloe and Jack yes. I think the opposition leader from series 3 is now the president but I could be wrong. These republicans all look the same to me.

No Dennis Haysbert?

He was a leg end. Although his storylines regarding presidential campaigns and stuff really annoyed me.

That's GOT to be deliberate.

No, he's the character I miss the most.

But still having the same president for 12 years or something doesn't happen in America, not unless they steal the first term anyway.

Yes it is deliberate. When N64 magazine did the Zelda review they had LEG on one page and END on another. When they printed the two pages in a later issue on the subsciption page and so the pages were seperated slightly and it read "The Leg end of Zelda", I've been saying it since.

Tho others seem to get it from elsewhere.

But surely he could be Jack's friend or somet?

In the last series he said he hoped to continue in an 'unofficial capacity'. So he may return. In real life ex presidents have a right to get CIA briefings/summaries so if they're being realistic he'll turn up at somepoint when he's been told what's going on.

Unless they say he's died or something.

It'll be a massive shame if he's not in it. I might try downloading the episodes again.

When is series 3 being shown on terrestial TV?

I just read this at bbc.co.uk/cult

It might contain spoilers, I dunno, but it sounds great and with guest apperances from old favourites. I still long for the return of George Mason. Berkley to return!





Drummed out of CTU for his drug problem last season, Jack Bauer begins his latest disastrous day 18 months later, working for Defence Secretary Heller – and sleeping with his daughter.

He seems happy, contented, and oblivious to the fact that less than two hours later he'll find himself kneecapping terrorists, chained to a railing while his partner lies bleeding to death on the floor or capturing a killer at the dry cleaners by remote control.

This is very much all-new 24, with very little from seasons 1-3 remaining. President Palmer hasn't been re-elected, Tony and Michelle are working elsewhere and ditzy Kim has probably forgotten to turn up. Either that or she's trapped in her bathroom with a cougar.

Thankfully, the real treasure of season three has kept her job. Grumpy computer whiz Chloe, played by Mary Lynn Rajskub, sulks and snipes her way through proceedings, injecting some much-needed black humour into the show.

New to the cast is Lucas Haas, who once played the little boy who witnessed the murder in, er, Witness. This time he witnesses several murders after he discovers terrorists tampering with the internet. Whether or not Jack will take him to Pennsylvania and help build a barn with the Amish later in the day remains to be seen.

As ever, 24 is packed with feature film-quality set-pieces, from an horrific train crash at the start of the episode to the spectacular kidnap of Heller by rocket launcher-wielding thugs. There's also a lot of senseless killing which, while gruesome to watch, ensures the viewer doesn't take events lightly.

Four years on, 24 shows no signs of running out of steam. Whilst it's a wrench to lose so many of the regular cast, rumours of guest appearances by old favourites abound and Keifer Sutherland still dominates the proceedings brilliantly, securing his status as US TV's finest leading man. We can't wait to see what the next 22 hours have in store.

Sky have the terrestrial rights, I believe, and so it could be a while. Oh, and for the not-as-dedicated 24 fans, Palmer's opposition is called President John Keeler now ;0)
