Dead Set: E4 (UK) Zombie Big Brother Drama Thingy

[Ethros]

the producer annoyed me in parts 1 & 2, but he was great, in 3, 4 & 5.

Love the bit in Part 3 when he's shitting in the bucket
"Just look away!"

And Part 4 when he's cutting the guy up for pieces
"Oooh look at that! What is that?! I don't even know what that is!"

and ooh Ghost Willow, I love Ghost Willow

Ta. I would say vote for it in the SF/F Halloween themed av contest, but the goons over there keep arsing it up

Haven't finished watching eps 4 and 5 yet, I'll get round to it tomorrow.

And Part 4 when he's cutting the guy up for pieces
"Oooh look at that! What is that?! I don't even know what that is!"

yes that is maybe his second best bit, the best bit being the bit in episode 5

Spoiler: episode 5

when he is encouraging the Zombies to eat him.

"Eat it! Go on eat it all! I'm gonna fucking burst! Full of shit!"


DVDs out tomorrow. At a run total time of 138 minutes, I wonder if it would have worked as a movie. Maybe edit it down a bit for the running time

Well I thought it was amazing, Davina seemed to have been really enthusiastic.

Does make you wonder how us Brits would cope with a real Zombie outbreak.

"Quick, we have to get weapons to protect ourselves from the Zombie Hordes!! Help me fill out this Firearms Licence Application form, then we hand it in to our local police station, wait 2-3 months for an appointment from a Firearms Officer, then 2 months to be processed, then get the cabinet and arrange another appointment in 2-4 weeks so they can see that we've bought the correct kind of cabinet and secured it to the wall in a safe place, then we can go and get the weapon!"

"Oh, fuck it - pass me that cricket bat!!!"

I love that scene
I preordered the DVDs a couple of weeks back, they were dispatched before I'd even finished watching it, but seen as it was £11.98 I couldn't resist
It was shown on E4 last night as a feature length special.

Looks like all in all Dead Set was a winner for E4.

The final episode of E4's Dead Set averaged 515,000 (3.1%) at 10pm, with 137,000 (1.3%) more on timeshift. Across its five episodes, the horror drama has averaged 826,000 (5.2%) for E4, up five-fold on the slot average.

raings just goes to show if you dont air friends repeats, and you air something without DOGs, people will find it and watch.

Ethros: I was trying not to spoil that for Bob The Skutter, however I agree it might be a bit long as a movie.

As to how Brits would cope in a Zombie outbreak, well apparntly head to the BigBrother house, or try and be in a supermarket when it happens, lock it down, so you survive the first wave of zombie attack, and then you have lots of food to trade in the post Zombie world.

I'm just watching the first episode now, Davina just bit the dust. This is hilarious
