Re: Years and Years

I watched the 1st episode after the recommendation here and I enjoyed it. I've seen the trailer for episode two and I'm a bit worried it might get a bit too far fetched.....hope it doesn't I love off the wall stuff like this.

Not sure about Emma's Yorkshire accent but I can forgive that...looking forward to episode 2.

Same here, Summer. And being transhuman probably isn't too many years further away than we may think. Scary times indeed.

Had anyone heard of the term 'transhuman' before they watched the episode?

I hadn't, but on Gogglebox last night, one of the Gogglers told his wife what it meant. I was surprised, as I assumed it had been made up for the drama.

(Otherwise I'd have assumed it meant wanting to be an animal).

That's exactly how I feel about this programme. It looked good from watching the trailer but as soon as I saw Thompson in it, I decided not to watch. I just think of her in her stupid pink boat stunt in London and wonder if the whole thing was just publicity for this programme. Well it didn't work on me that's for sure.

Emma Thompson wasn't in it very much, and when she was, she was 'on television' ifswim.

Obviously, she might be in it more in other episodes, but the plot in the first one wasn't centred around her.
