Am I the only one who gets irritated by the inane and untimely comments made by the announcers at the end of shows?

A big reveal happens and I don't have time to enjoy the moment as barely a second later he interrupts the mood with his annoying remarks.

Well...........
Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!


In his FF he also saw himself taking a phone call where he was told a woman died. He was told it was an accident but he firmly believed it was his fault and that because of him her young twin sons were oprhans. In order for it not to happen and to show others that the future can be changed he threw himself off the building.

He apparently was responsible for the death of 'Celia', the lady with the 2 boys that you were shown in the episode. That's who the letter was to.

We thought that she'd break his fall in some way so he would still end up killing her but it looks like this wasn't the case. It opens up a lot of more interesting questions though. Quite liked the ep.

Something I think I missed as we were talking about something else:

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!



Did Aaron's daughter (the soldier) lose her legs when the car got bombed? Is this why we only see her top half when he has his Flashforward?

Of course this theory could bite the dust because of the end of that ep.

Re: Your second spoiler Vix...

Yeah, I assume she did lose at least one leg. But, I'm not sure it's really her - her appearing already just doesn't seem to fit his FlashForward properly. Some sort of figment of his imagination is my guess.

End Spoiler Alert!

I really enjoyed the episode, thought it was the best so far, but it doesn't half mess up some of the preconceptions I had about the show. Lots of possibilities in play, and I'm not sure if that's good or not.

2) Decide to pad it out to a full TV series instead
3) Totally fail to give the first series any kind of meaningful ending in an attempt to justify the commisioning of another series.
4) The whole thing gradually disappears up it's own arse in a sequence of increasingly implausible twists and by series 3 the original story has been left so far behind you're left wondering why you ever started watching it.
The whole thing is like LOST 2.0

Except now there is an ENTIRE world of characters they could use rather than just those on the island.

Haven't watched Ep7 yet, but loved the hint in 6 that

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

some experiment was run, and the uncertainly principle and observer effect in quantum theory has come into play. I think and hope they're going in that scientific direction which is exactly what I wanted to hear. I was dreading something "divine" "

I'm gonna go with one of 2 theories:

1) She was killed in Somalia when she accidentely came across the guys doing whatever was going on to kill the crows. As a result of dying in the area whilst all that was going on there was some mystical **** up in time which means she's now magically alive (At least for now, something still has to happen to her to satisfy her dads FF)

2) Blokey jumping off the building has caused some mystical **** up in time which means she's now magically alive and this is just just the first of many completely inexplicable events which the writers now have carte blanche to throw in whever things are looking a bit predictable and need livening up.

Admittedly they're not very well thought out theories and probably have a few holes but then I'm still working on the basis that whole series is going to degenerate into incomprehensible randomness somewhere down the line

I like theory number 2, and think its entirely plausable.

I really liked this episode.

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!



Since Dylan's dad (and I think hobbit?) had a FF means that they weren't the people awake so we still have to find out who that was...or have I missed any explanation to that?

Also, in Dylan's FF he sees the little girl and they speak but in after seeing hers she was traumatised saying "DD Gibbons is a bad man" but as far as we know she was just in her house...
