Seen some trailers for this on iPlayer. Is it worth watching?
Thanks.

I watched it on AMC last year, it's not bad, starts really well but Peters out a bit. And is probably 3 hours/episodes too long.

No - not really. Sat through three episodes while the family watched it, each progressively worse than the previous. Then they gave up watcching. - as did I.

On the other hand I've been discovering series I never bothered to watch at the time, having haad better things to do. At present I am sitting through the non-stop action of 24 - and thinking of applying for a job at CTU

It draws you in, but is bonkers! We watched all ten episodes in a week. Had some weird dreams on those nights!

Yep.

Very entertaining, and agree whoever said it's probably a little longer than it needs to be.

Where can you access 24? I never saw it at the time.

Been watching it the last week or so, it's a bit of a mixed bag in many ways. Cast are great, you can really tell the Ridley Scott influence as the atmosphere is there and early on it has a terrific feel to it. I have one or two episodes left and would agree with others that it slips a bit as it goes on, particularly if you're familiar with the background and know there's an inevitable outcome.

It's worth a try though, while I wouldn't say it's an 'awesome must watch' it is enjoyable.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

I thought it was great, but if you're so inclined try and read the book first, that was fantastic, really captured the bleakness of the expedition

Equally on the same subject matter, Michael Palin's Erebus is superb.

24 and x files are on Disney plus now. 24 is amazing for binging.

I've been wondering the same. Looking for something to replace 'Man From Room 301' (viewed on the iPlayer from late February and is around for a year), which managed to throw an awful lot into its six short episodes.

Perhaps won’t make my top 5 box sets ever but I enjoyed The Terror. Based on real events but with a fair amount of license taken to build in a supernatural element along with some conjecture as to what took place.

The story behind the expedition is a real life mystery. As covered by the books mentioned above.

It was well acted and visually really good. Plenty of twists along the way. Definitely worth a watch in my opinion. Season 2 is best avoided by all accounts.

I quite enjoyed it. I agree it was probably 2/3 episodes too long. I liked that we have no real way of finding out what really happened and I know one of the theories about what happened played out in this series.

24 is on Netflix at the moment.... I'm waiting for them to take it down before I have finished watching it.... just like they did with Schitt's Creek
