"24 Season 1 - BBC 1 - 11:35"

For those who've never seen 24, or the silly ones who came in half-way through, I strongly recommend this. They're starting off with a double bill. Arguably the best series of the four, and a monumental plot twist at the end ;0)

I fell asleep at the 40th minute of the 1st episode. Not that it was bad I was just tired. It's that that good but it was ok.

I have the DVD. You're wrong. I just checked, and it goes from 1:17:47am to 1:31:19 (there is no 1:33 timer, so I'm just assuming you didn't pay attention) in the space of 8 minutes, 52 seconds. When you factor in a 4 minute advert, that adds up.

Yes, I'm a geek, but a geek who gets things right ^_^

I enjoyed it. It is interesting remembering how the first season felt compared to the 4th season we are on now.

Aye, it was a much better series back then.

2nd is still the best.

Bragharh, it was late, I'm tired.
Why don't you go and copy more reviews?

Oh, and no matter what, you're never going to get an advert 4 minutes and 40 seconds long, exactly.

THUS NOT REALTIME!!!

Yes, you can. I've seen it many a time. Besides, remember that this is engineered for American TV, where they have stonkingly long adverts.

Yeah, I'm surprised they haven't flogged the rights yet.

So even if the Beeb showed all seasons, on double bills, it would take ages to get to the 3rd and 4th series.

Might aswell just get the DVD sets and the 4th which is out in August I think
