Scottish Elises

Anyone watch it?
I missed it on release so got the 1st season box set!
It's MEGA!

Absolutely realistic.

T-Bag gets his hand chopped off with an axe so that they can get a briefcase off him that is hancuffed to his wrist, then after escaping, is next seen at a Veterinarian Surgeons, where he forces him to sew his hand back on, which he had somehow managed to carry around with him in a tupperware box packed with ice, that had not melted over several weeks, all this without anaesthetics, and then administers a lethal injection to the Vet, WITH THE EFFING HAND THAT HAS JUST BEEN SOWN BACK ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those of you that need a fix whilst the Big Brother adverts are on, then flip over, you will never regret it.

Tut,

It's a good story ruined by a terrible direction. I saw the two hour episode when series 2 started. You could have told the entire story in about 30 minutes with a good director. They drag it out (made worse by being dragged out with adverts, obviously) with pregnant pauses that would put an elephant to shame. It's a shame because it makes the actors look bad, and they probably aren't - looks like they forgot their lines half the time. Sorry, but no cigar. Oh and as for realism, I suspect that if you severed your hand at the wrist with an axe and then walked about for half a day with the wrist tied up in nothing but a rag, you would bleed to death in about 10 minutes

Now a weird US show that did catch my eye on Wednesday was a thing called the lost room or similar. It's a bit twin peaks for those that remember it, though not quite as loony. It is quite well made and is a novel idea to boot.

Cheers,
Robin

I'm with you G - absolutely love it - especially the leading lads

Watching season 2.....they should of stopped at season 1.
Watched the whole stitchin hand scene back on...WTF...althought Tut, it was chopped off to 'disconnect' teabag from Michael

i watched the first series and that was pretty good, missed the first episode of the second series so didnt see the escape after watching the planning of it in the first series

1 prisioner down 7 more to catch.
