BBC Survivors

[RedDog]

Anyone watching this ? Any thoughts so far ?

I'm remaining open minded, but given the antics in the last episode I would have moved finding some form of weapon to the top priority, otherwise the bad boys could just follow you and take all your stuff.

Interesting as well that there is no thoughts yet security, getting a generator, storing fuel. Those are some of the stuff I would have prioritised given the circumstances outlined.

As pure entertainment, I enjoyed it, but I did spend most of either thinking or saying "What I would do is...".

Obviously though just surviving is boring, so the usual conspiracy theories and schemes are going to play a large part in the rest of the episodes.

That was my big problem watching lost.

Crusoe sort of has the oppisite effect, because you spend all the time going how did he do that. The lift is my favorite.

I watched it out of interest and had plenty of criticisms before I remembered that it was purely for entertainment and then i relaxed a bit lol

i was wondering when someone was going to post on this program.
i watched the episode and for half of it i was almost yelling at the tv "for god sake get a land rover and get to your local outdoor shop.
was very happy when one of the charecters did it though the next stop would of been to the gun shop or even local military base for supplys.
couldnt help thinking also why dont yu go to the local marina and pick out a nice boat or even better navel base and get a sub lol
all the death and suffering aside it is actually a outdoors man/womans wet dream and yes its pure entertainment.
i probably wont watch anymore of the series as i get the nagging sence that i will find it far to annoying and frustrating.

Judging by the view of Beetham Tower from where the guy parked the Land Rover it looks like he was raiding Ellis Brigham's store on Duke St. near the Manchester Science Museum.
I bought a light weight fleece there a few months back, good people.
Happy trails...torc.
