Anyone watching this? I think its brilliant. I really like it, its gruesome, weird and rather fascinating. I actually think it makes Being Human look crap by comparison.

I've got it stored on the iPlayer. I know the writer, Jack Thorne. He's brilliant.

He looks so young http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/writersro...he_fades.shtml

Brilliant casting as well, your Miranda pal is in the cast as I'm sure you know.

No I don't know who's in it, but those bastards get everywhere. Yeah, Jack is young but he's a real genius.

Yeah that guy, the good looking one, he seems to play the same role in everything I have seen him in. I hope he plays something in different in this, I think you see his bum, although I may be mixing that up, not sure what.

Funny enough when I was watching it I felt there was something about Skins about the characters and then just saw that the writer wrote for Skins as well.

I saw the first episode and really enjoyed it but then I forgot to go back to it. The young actors are really good, Corrie should have kept that kid on instead of recasting, he could have made Ken Barlow more interesting.
