I watched the final episode last night.

They reckon there will be another series next year.

I've still got the last one to watch - I watch it at the weekend so I can watch in the daytime.  I watched last week's yesterday and I've felt sick a couple of times today at the scene  when Simon that wee 'snack' when he was in the cells....  

Yes, that made me feel sick, too.

Who do you think you are starting now BBC1 Nigel Havers this week 

How rubbish is TV tonight.

Apart from FG/AD I can't find anything to watch.

I've just watched DIY SOS. Blubbed like a blubby thing

me too.. I've seen it before, but I blubbed again - what a lovely family.. so sad.

I'm watching RED on Film 4.

Totally tongue in cheek, pensioners running around like 22 year olds killing people half their age!

Mirren, Willis, Malcovich and Freeman.

I don't watch that often so didn't realise it was a repeat.

Lovely family; I hope they get to spend a long time together in it.

I don't actually make a point of watching it ever, Cos - pure fluke that that's twice I've noticed it on in the background when it came on after something I'd been watching. 

It's not a programme I can ever recall watching in the past but I saw this one. What a sad and yet really heartwarming story. It was a proper tear jerker wasn't it?

It really bought tears to my eyes to see how amazingly quickly they transformed that house - especially considering my recent long drawn out sagas with my bl***y kitchen and bathroom

It was getting like a soap opera Soozy  but it all ended well  

I bet they never went to 'First Bathrooms' for the wet room fittings .............they'd have had to make the programme into a six part series with a cliff hanger ending.

'Tune in next week to see if the shower taps will ever arrive and find out Soozy's cunning plan to disguise the drilled holes in the bath that shouldn't be there'.

I have to say it would have made a great series..for us..but I accept, not for you Soozy 

I'm watching Badults, it's bloody rubbish.

I like that BBC Three tries new comedy, but they also should know when to ditch the rubbish. If this gets a second series I will be very surprised indeed.

Anyone watching The Mill? - Really enjoying it.

Just got on a programme featuring Stephen Fry exploring London's Square Mile. I do like a documentary and Stephen Fry is the icing on the documentary cake 

I really enjoyed that programme. It's got me all "I want to learn more about history" 

How to get a council house ch 4 9pm tonight, it was quite interesting last week

Got it on right now Aimee.

Sarah+Fella, why the hell did you not use contraception?

Got a documentary programme on Channel 5 at the moment about the worlds busiest train station. I can't believe how they actually push commuters onto the trains! It's mad!

Oh and the groping

Synopsis

Tokyo is perhaps the world's most crowded city, with 36 million residents, as well as commuters and visitors, all jostling for space. Every 24 hours, three million people pass through Shinjuku Station, where a train arrives every three seconds on one of 35 platforms.

25,000 trains roll through Shinjuku every day, which, were they placed end to end, would stretch from London to New York. With both overground and underground platforms, it is 15 times busier than London Waterloo, the busiest station in Britain.

As well as the daily pressure of rush hour, the station must be prepared for the constant threat of earthquakes, typhoons and even terrorists. This programme follows 24 hours in the life of Shinjuku – the world's busiest train station.

"Tokyo doesn't really sleep, it just pauses for repairs," says social anthropologist Michael Fisch. Shinjuku's day begins after the last train leaves, just before 2am, when the cleaners have less than three hours to get the place, which is the size of sixty football pitches, spotless – disposing of nine tons of rubbish daily.

Hundreds of staff sleep at the station in pods that have inflatable mattress covers. These automatically inflate, lifting the sleeper's head, when the alarm goes off, ensuring that all staff are on time when the doors are opened at 4am.

Among the human cogs in this vast machine are four station guards per platform, who ensure that everyone sticks to the timetable. If passengers are slow to board, this can lead to delays. A delay of two minutes can cause the cancellation of a train, which could lead to dangerous numbers of people congregating on the platforms.

The guards have 30 seconds to get four thousand people off a train and another four thousand back on in order to keep everything on schedule. To do so they employ brute force to push passengers into the carriages, squeezing in double the number of people the rolling stock was designed to take.

"It's an experience like no other," says Michael. "People faint. People's arms have been crushed and broken. You just wait for the next station when the doors open and the pressure unleashes... it's really like nowhere else."

Behind closed doors, Shinjuku's employees remind themselves of their dedication to their profession by reciting the railway's philosophy. "Rigorous clarification and thorough communication are vital to ensuring safety. Ensuring safety requires one to surpass one's line of duty and work in unity. Self awareness and teamwork come together to build a safe and trustworthy Shinjuku station," they chant.

Situated where the business and entertainment districts converge, Shinjuku experiences five rush hours per day. After the salary men comes the first wave of tourists, and after the professionals head home, those in search of the night life arrive. But the last rush hour is the most problematic – when the drunk and disorderly try to stagger on to their final train home.

I've just come out the shower and that's on my telly too EC - scary stuff.  it's like the 6 p.m. from Edinburgh Waverley 

I had to leave before it finished, so I will play catch-up at some point. But you are right Kaffy, that kind of commuting is scary. There is literally no quarter given, stuff the trains beyond it's capacity in the 30 seconds it is standing on the platform, then off it goes. I'm amazed that there are conductors pushing people in and closing the doors behind them.

I'm watching You've Been Framed at the mo .........pathetic I know but I laugh  myself silly watching tni stuff .......and that's probably why I quite like the twins.

Bendix Twin Tubs   

A Touch of Class tonite at 9,  Movies24 

The Beat Is The Law for EC at half ten on Sky Arts. Sheffields music influence in the 80's.

Im going to carry on watching Top of The lake at 9...loving it

I have the DVD Velvet  It's rather interesting if you like a good music doc.

But I don't have Sky, so it's a good job I have the DVD 

Benefits Britain 1949 - C4 was the usual formulaic boring reality show 'poke a stick at them and see if they bite' and "let's-have-someone-cry-at-the-end" uplifting bit, clothed in bullshit flawed social analysis that C4 is a past master.  More propaganda for the Tory party from C4. 

BBC 4 last night / early hours this morning Natures Microworlds. Awesome.

Last night I watched 'You're Killing My Son' - it was about that woman who ran away with her son 'Neon' to avoid him having treatment for his brain tumour.

Whilst I sort if followed the story I didn't know all the details and 'players'.

Jeeeeez - the woman was/is an attention seeking nutter IMO. And the woman at the holistic treatment centre ...................WOW - a real caricature - if you were asked to create an image of a 'new age therapist' - I think it might have been just like her.

I do really hope that Neon continues to improve and is eventually given the all clear.

Thank God he has a sensible father.

Did anyone else watch it?

Soozy, someone else mentioned it last night, I think it might have been Frodo, but I can't remember which thread.

You  need to tune into the soaps then GJ 

Yep. I've been playing away. 

I've been watching other stuff and have assembled a rather long list of catch-up to do. So tonight I've caught up on a series named 'The Almighty Johnsons'. (Pay attention now Kaffers.) 

The premise is there are four brothers who are Norse gods living in New Zealand in the present. They are trying to make an honest living and not be noticed. 

It's rather like 'Being Human' but with a lot more comedy. 

New series starts on Syfy tonight at 10pm I think. 

I'm watching a terrific documentary about the rebuilding of the World Trade Center site on C4. Catch up with it if you can. 

  I missed this

Me too Xochi. I wish I had a way of recording it as it is worth a second viewing.
