​spectre was slower than a snail....no one cares why bond does stuff, we want him on a mission saving the world

Yeah i bouht the hd version. Code i got was justkidding for 50% off. Logged into bbci player on my tablet and its there under my programmes

​Exactly how I felt. The last episode was the only one that felt like something was going on.

Thought the same, all flash. Over use of music to indicate drama where none really exists.

Even if the BBC wanted to forgo the money earned by selling copies of this, there's not a chance in hell they'd be allowed to by the regulatory authorities. The commercial channels petitioned against iPlayer, against BBC 1 + 1, against series links, against recipes on the BBC website, etc, etc.

So they should give away free copies? Or just never make physical copies available?

Its stream or download via BBCi player or from the BBC video store site. No time limit on download if you buy it unlike the 30 day limit on regular BBCi player.
I dont mind paying for quality like this even though it was on telly for nothing

Yeah dont understand so many negative comments. Everyone i know loved it. I binge watched it though so it felt more like a film for me.

I don't get this. Which role are you on about?

Well i wanted a permanent copy and not have to rely on the iplayer turnover. I plan to watch it again a few times as i emjoyed it so much. Some complaint on here but i found it one the most watchable things in ages. If notjing else the foreign settings cheer me up and the cast are nice to look at

I'm just taking a wild guess here, but i think it could be the opportunity to watch it anytime you want....forever. no different to buying any show digitally or on physical media.

For me it made a nice change. I watch Vikings, Walking Dead and Black Sails but they get a bit heavy. Loads of shows (and films) go for nihilism and grand speeces of great import as a crutch to hide the lack of plot. Black Sails is a prime example, spinning out a series with constant lecturing between charachters thats meant to sound very deep but emds up grating to me as it feels like filler. I like a good old fashioned yarn and this show never outstayed its welcome and for me was entertaining from start to finish

This, Happy Valley and Line Of Fire are as good as any of the us shows for me

You're spot on there, Bushes, the keyword being "archive"!

The likes of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, or I Claudius, or House of Cards are several magnitudes ahead of this.

Of course, such programme series were made "in house" in those days, without an eye on copying from (or capitalising from resales to) the US market... coincidence?

It plays on my BBCi player app on android. What system are you using?

​Don't knock it. The more people that keep paying for stuff & not using kodi the more chance decent content remains being made.

I've been using kodi (as xbmc) since 2005 (when it was on the original xbox) & whilst I appreciate the streaming addons for what they are, this huge influx of people using them instead of paying for content in some way is working for future content.

I pay for amazon & netflix despite rarely using them for this reason. These shows cost money to make, there needs to be customers paying for them to continue making them.

Now football, that's a different matter. If everyone stops paying for sky sports & using streams then the end game is pretty much just reduced footballers wages, which is hardly the end of the world!
