What have you watched on TV?

Tried to watch part 2 last night, but again in kept freezing every few minutes. It's not my broadband speed as I tested it, so is this because so many people are accessing the IPlayer and watching it? Very irritating and the Mrs was losing interest. Not happy. :thumbdown:

why don't you just download and then watch normally?

Ive had no problems watching it.

Yer, I usually watch Iplayer on my Wii (which is connected to the main TV) and this is the first time I've had an issue.

Made it (rather jerkily) through Episode 4. Thank God I never have to use Iplayer again.

We watched the first episode of The Bridge last night. Really enjoyed it, looking forward to trying to catch up to episode 7(?) this week.

Also watched the finale of Homeland this weekend, in fact watched it twice because the first time I was drunk and fell asleep! I thought it was really good. Overall the show dipped quite a lot in the middle but the ending made up for it

  Spoiler:  

Liked how it left things with Brody and Carrie, although I'm worried that season 2 will end up just being character driven and won't have a gripping story. The mole at the CIA wasn't explained, or at least I missed that if it was. I really hope the start of Series 2 is Saul leaking the info...

Six episodes have been shown so far, 2 every Saturday. It gets intense!

Cool. Saw that there was 5 on iPlayer. Set up series link for the pair of episodes this weekend. I think it makes sense to double up these kind of series. More and more people watch them in a marathon on Sky+/iPlayer etc. And also I felt that a 20x1hr series like The Killing really would test someone's patience if it was just 1 episode a week.

Enjoyed Tom Jones version of Tower of Song on Jools.
Also thought that Gabby Logan's Sexism in Football? was well worth watching.(Yes, Craven Cottage is a lovely ground)! :thumbsup:

I'm starting to think several characters are going to be involved in the murders, including August and Stefan.

Don't think anything's been ruined.
