Looks great! I'd been wanting to watch this and now I can! Tom Hardy will also be joining the cast in Season 2.

Sweet! I've been very interested in this one, as a huge Cillian Murphy fan. Steven Knight's awesome too.

 

[BronsonLee]

Welp, I'll be marathoning this

 

[Guerrillas in the Mist]

Its pretty good, even if some of the accents are a bit ropey.

 

[Rambaldi47]

Good programme this. Really looking forward to the second series.

Some of the Brummie accents are a bit iffy, but I doubt an American audience would pick up on it.

Sam Neill's Irish accent too. Sheesh.

 

[Senator Soufflé]

Sam Neill's Irish accent too. Sheesh.

Proper Belfast accent that.


THE FEENYUN EYE-ARR-AAY!

[Discotheque]

Gotta get on this. Stephen Knight is all good and so is dat cast

 

[DeFiBkIlLeR]

Loved the first season, and now we get Tom Hardy?? Ohhhh boooy!

Don't get too excited, I think it's only a small, single episode part, done as a favour to his friend the writer and director of the show.

 

[AkuMifune]

Really liking it so far. Not a fan of the Jack White songs, but they work I guess.

And yeah, Holy Hell Sam Neill's Accent weaves in and out of regions from the abstract to absurd.
