Thanks Jez. We have an American show called Third Watch about firefighters and police but I could never get in to it. I can't wait to see London's Burning, I would just love to have Dan for my boytoy ;D he has the nicest smile. I find the special effects quite good, I can't imagine the real firefighters going in to burning buildings but I guess they do. Judith I liked Dan, but ive not seen him in anything else since leaving LB.

I figured out how Hi Ho got his nickname when I heard his last name. I looked at my granddaughter and said you know "Hi Ho Silver." She just gave me a blank stare, and I said "the Lone Ranger" same blank stare. Was it that long ago I guess I'm older than I thought. Glad to see Sally give Bateman a good belt. He sure seemed to becoming a stalker. Pitbull was even disgusted with him. Yesterdays episode ended with a blast in the tunnel, I hope I am not going to have to get accustomed to more new characters already.

I loved 'Londons Burning'.
It quite made my Sunday night. The trouble is I think they should have axed it, before they made the last series, which was pants, and deserved to be axed.

I do not know what series we have here in Canada. Started watching about a month ago, and enjoy it. Please explain pants don't know that expression.

I just realised I gave the wrong name when I said Recall was like Ray in Emmerdale, you must have all thought I was crazy but were too polite to say so LOL. I meant of course the Irish guy who I think is called Hypo. Why do they have so many weird nicknames?

Christina: That would be Rob, didn't know his nickname. I think he is delightful, very humorous. Love the accent as well.

Pants is another word for rubbish. ! ;D Which is what the final series was.

Thanks sootycat, I can only hope we are not too close to the last series. I not only enjoy the show but its something my granddaughter and I enjoy together. Drive her mother crazy when we talk about the show and she doesn't know who we are talking about. My friends and co-workers already laugh every time I use an expression I have picked up from British TV, so now I have a new one ;D

I like him too Judith, and I very much enjoy the show. I just find it difficult with all the nicknames sorting who is who.

I loved London's Burning! I can't even remember how it finished! Altough, i do remember that the last series was quite poor...

The trouble was with the final series they totally changed it. Even the nature of the characters were altered, we saw less fire type action, and a couple of unlikeable characters were brought in.
Week by week the viewers dwindled, and by the end I had stopped watching it.
Sad really, it had been so good, with such great sories and strong characters.

I really enjoyed it last night. The new puppy, and lots of different stories coming together and getting resolved. I still have trouble with the names though, I can picture the character so clearly but putting a name to them is hard. I now have Rob and Sally down pat, but then they are my favourites.
