Thanks, Jan. I occasionally run through the listings in Digiguide to see
what's coming, and even sometimes mention things here that stand out to me
if nobody else has already mentioned them, but wouldn't have spotted this
because I don't have FX listed (I limit my listings to just enough channels
to fill the screen vertically).
I won't be watching it myself, though (I have it all on DVD, so why bother?)
except where I happen upon the channel when I have nothing better to do. I'm
sure we must have at least one person amongst the five of us still here who
might watch it, though.
Now, what we really need is Jeremiah Season 2 to be broadcast this side of
the puddle. <mutter>

Or released on DVD. That would work.

Definitely should have an OT!

Not me anyhow. I would, but I don't have FX... don't really do TV much
at all any more, in fact.

That would definitely work, but I'd be surprised if that happens before a
broadcast. And I'd be surprised if we'd see a broadcast before the Universe
finally gives up waiting and collapses in on itself.
Unfortunately.
It's been a good few years since I last looked at what was going on. IIRC,
the status (or, rather, rumour) then was that our Channel 5 had picked up
the rights, previously held by Sky, but when I tried contacting them I never
received any kind of reply.
