Jekyll/BBC

Postby HGervais » Mon Jun 18, 2007 4:33 pm

I was talking with someone in another thread about Doctor Jekyll & Mr. Hyde and I mentioned I thought there was a BBC series from Doctor Who writer Steven Moffat and sure enough, there is. The first episode of Jekyll transmitted last week. I'm downloading it as I write this. I'll let you guys know how it is.

Bloody brilliant is how it is. No answers are given, only questions asked but the first episode does a great job of laying out the reality of the show, the establishments of its rules if you will, and then spends the last 10 minutes putting everything, and everyone into jeopardy. Top notch stuff and if you are a bit torrenter, highly recommended.
