I was excited about dead set, (on E4 last night) I like Charlie Brooker, it has zombies and the big brother house, I mean its almost got it all :D

After last night It got me hooked to watch them all but if Im honest it wasnt as good as I thought it would be, the documentarty style filmning was good but sometimes detracted and I think they should have set the characters up a bit more.

But zombies and reality TV what a combination :buttrock

I watched it Taff.  I was actually just vedging out on my laptop sitting on the couch last night, I had an episode of Friends on in the background on telly and then when it come on, I thought I'd give it a go.  It was only a surprise I caught it, but I thought it was a belter.  I think it's on again tonight.

If you go on the C4 website, you can download 4oD and you can watch the 1st one for free. Just put Dead Set in the search bar and its the 3rd one on the list!

As I posted above woof, you watch it on 4oD. It only takes minutes to download and you can catch up on most things that have been on C4 and E4.

But I have checked my TV guide and theres nothing in it to say that it will be repeated.
Have even tried You Tube and theres nothing on it either.

Cheers Kazza found a site with the torrents, think I'll now wait until they've racked up half a dozen so, I can then have a bit of a binge.   :)

Thought about watching it, but is it anything other than a variation on your usual zombie flick with an over-rated, flogged to death "reality" TV show as some kind of incentive for some to watch it as another way of how some people were isolated from the outbreak of zombie-ism.

So let me guess, they work out the rest of the world is infected, need to get supplies and try to find civilisation, some get bitten/infected and one or two survive - eventually to be found by rescuers who just happened to be looking where they'd already looked many times before!

You think too much dude, it has zombies and reality TV, if it had robot sharks from the future it would be absolutely perfect
