I missed it yesterday as I didn't know about it,but saw todays and will definitely watch the rest.Shame it is on at that time of day though.

I'm pleased to hear that some of you have watched it : ) Glad you liked it Quoy .

It does jump about a bit Gwyn but I think you get used to it after awhile . I like the way it knits the past and now together , I think it's very cleverly written and I'm intrigued by the story line .

I am really enjoying it

It chopped and changed eras a bit much, but I shall stick with it.

There is an interesting programme all this week on BBC1 at 9.15 a.m. about changes this century.

Yes, Amanda, I rely on getting the dvd's of a lot of programmes....thank goodness for a certain company by the name of A*azon!! Am about to order Downton Abbey as I missed it all.
Hope you enjoy the series.

Karen , sorry to hear you can't get it where you are but as it's the BBC it might well be released on a DVD at some point ?

Chris , I nearly missed the first one as I had an appointment at the hospital , I just remembered in time to record the series ....phew

You'll enjoy watching it in peace and quiet ForeverMystified : )

I only knew it was going to be on yesterday as I saw in mentioned on the " Breakfast " programme , I'm going to view part two this evening when OH is back home , even he enjoyed it and he usually doesn't like " my " type of TV programmes ......lol

I have recorded it and will do the rest and watch in peace when I'm downstairs on my own not being able to sleep, which is most nights.

Why not watch the one you missed on bbc i-player Chris....it's great for those programmes you've missed, but v unfortunate that you can't get it overseas.

I spat feathers at 3.05 p.m. yesterday when I remembered I wanted to watch it - however I am clockwatching today!!

I seem to remember seeing the trailers for this, when i was home in UK, and I thought, oh goody this is something I'll really like.....oh rats, it's started already and I'm not able to get it here!!
But what a strange time slot? Perhaps they think nobody is going to like it.

Didn't anybody else watch the programme ?

To be honest I'm surprised it is being shown at such an odd time of day as it seemed better suited to an early evening slot in my opinion .

Did anyone watch the first episode yesterday , it is a BBC drama , screened at about 2pm on BBC1 .

It will be shown in five parts I think , one episode each afternoon .

I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to today's episode , can't wait to see the story unfold .

The story jumps between 1931 and 2011 , following the activities of the family that dwell in the house through that time span .
