Outcasts (TV series) – my thoughts

It isn't on this channel

Recently, I have been watching a TV series titled Outcasts on BBC One and BBC One HD. Today I’m going to tell you my thoughts on it.

The plot is quite simple, but complicated in some areas. Basically, some humans escaped from Earth to a new planet. In the series they struggle to live on the planet. But that isn’t all. The new planet has whiteouts, other creatures, ACs and more.

The 8 episodes are quite well constructed, though at some points it can be a little boring and/or repetitive – for instance, there always seems to be problems on the planet.

All of the characters are different, and you feel very sad if any are hurt/die.

Overall, I really like this series. Unfortunately, the ratings were low (2.6 million for episode 4) so episodes 6, 7 and 8 were broadcast on Sunday nights at 10:25pm. Not good.

This means there won’t be an Outcasts – Series Two. That is why, in this post title, I didn’t put Series One – I did that for Come Fly With Me (and the chances of that having another series were slim, but there is going to be Series Two), but Outcasts? No chance. It is a shame really, considering the BBC spent a lot of money on it, and hoped it would be enjoyed….

What are your thoughts on Outcasts?

So long, Outcasts...

When the world will end…

The Sun will expand...

Forget 2012, when do you think the world will end? I have a few guesses…

According to Doctor Who Series 1 Episode Two (titled The End of the World) the world will end in the year 5.5/apple/26.

According to a movie (?) that was released recently the world will end in 2012. It is fictional.

As for my opinion… I think the world will end sooner than we expect if we don’t do much about global warming. I can’t give an exact year, but we are destroying our planet fast…

When do you think the world will end?

Where I grew up

Map!

Describe the town where you grew up. I live in (and grew up in) a great city. It can be quite a busy place, yet in some places it can be very quiet. There are horrible places (eg. shopping places on a Saturday) and lovely places (where you walk your dog).

People can be very friendly and very rude. Some can be very helpful. It varies, and I try to be a friendly person.

It looks like you would expect a city to look like, yet in the outer areas it may not. It is peaceful there. And better, in my opinion.

Where did you grow up?

Super intelligent or extremely good looking?

Definitely super intelligent. Good looks can’t get you through a Maths exam.

If I could be both, but not at the same time, that would be good. Intelligence when I needed it, and good looks the rest of the time. Sounds good?

What about you? Which would you choose? Both?

The most intelligent thing ever created the Earth (God did).
