Its brilliant Waiting for the second series to come on NowTV. First series was excellent and I think that's mostly down to Don Mancinis continued involvement and the cracking blend of legacy and new characters. And Chucky of course, who still manages to be as iconic and fresh as ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy watching in a Stalone hard man type way. I will watch another episode ( out the corner of my eye ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 The English, how good is Ralph Spall as David Melmont? He had that old fashioned London accent down pat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizzzle Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I’m surprised more people aren’t loving 1899 tbh I think it’s been great. It was never going to be as good as Dark, imo there are very very few shows as good as Dark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I read the Wikipedia page, and discovered that it doesn't conclude properly, and the makers 'have ideas for' another two series - which Netflix have not yet greenlighted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid acting, direction and writing and building the tension nicely. The first series was on a couple of years or so ago, on BBC in the UK. It seems like there's a 2nd series from the ads I keep seeing on the TV in not England, to stream it on 7OD or whatever channel it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only seems to be one series that seems nothing like the one quotes by @Rds1983but fits in 2019? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was set in France then the UK later in the series. Started off on top of a mountain, with a space observation station and then aliens came and killed people. It was quite engaging, but they had me with the theme music for the first episode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vaguely remember this, was one episode when they had a hospital under seige and their was a military unit in the mountains or something?

Has Gabriel Byrne playing a scientist and is half UK and half France. There is a space station on top of a mountain and a hospital under siege so sounds like the one @blandy mentioned. I'm enjoying it so far but only about 5 episodes in though. Looks like it has 3 seasons. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve watched both mate but forgot the French one (only the first series of each and got them mixed up) The one set in Victorian London is worth a watch as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any adaptation has to be compared to Jeff Wayne's though as that's by far my favourite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
