Can anyone tell me if this saturday`s Ultimate Force has been resceduled or if it has been cancelled.
The listings are showing Death on the Nile in it`s place despite UF showing a trailer for next weeks episode.
Cheers

The first 2 series were good, but this series is just abysmal. I`m no prude, but the gratuitous nudity in the first episode, coupled with a completely unrealistic Max Payne shootdive at the end had us cringing. We gave the second ep a chance but regretted it almost straight away.

It`s telling that 90% of the original cast didn`t want to return for S3, and were killed off (all conveniently wearing headscarves to conceal the fact they were stand-ins) in the first 5 minutes

Should be Ulitimate FARCE :D
I will never watch anything with Grant Mitchell in, he cannot act :o
He only has one expression (hard man!).

Will happily watch Hercule instead of the ulitimate farce drivel.

Must admit, this series is a bit "A-Team" jumping out of an `about to explode` van, ever lasting bullets!

Last saturdays episode was like the lobby scene in "The Matrix", at least The Matrix was sci-fi.





The 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California, less than 100 were made. My father spent 3 years restoring this car.....it is his love.....it is his passion....."it is his fault he didn`t lock the garage!"

D`ye think he`d be the fattest SAS man ever ?
Someone mentioned it has terrible continuity as well.
Something about a car being screeched into a car parking space at an angle.
Next scene it was perfectly placed between the lines etc.etc. :/
I did give it a go once but I was appalled at how bad it was.
Blake`s 7 had better special effects. :D

First series - pretty good. Chris Ryan as advisor and even in some episodes. Pretty true to those Ryan/McNab type books.

Second series - no Ryan, but still a writer who knows a bit. Got sillier, but OK.

Series three - I like the A-Team comparison above! FAR too silly :D

Magic - there`s a fansite mate! They are "investigating" when it`s on next :D

I wind my Mrs up when she watches Eastenders - everytime someone says "I wish Grant was here" or words to that effect I pipe up "But he`s left and joined the SAS!" Well, seemed funny at the time :S

I admit to enjoying it. To me it`s the old thing - good versus evil, cowboys and injuns, white hats versus black hats. Just a modern day version of those old escapist black and white movies. :D

Edit: think I should have used the word escapism not escapist. Grammar not too good today.
