So, Outcasts has fallen, has it? I must say, I've tried to watch it but it doesn't grip me at all. Making good quality television is obviously harder than it seems, bearing in mind the great actors and writers we have in this country! Hustle is another one that I can take or leave - I can't decide if it's the acting or the writing at fault, but it's impossible to take seriously. Apart from Ashes to Ashes, Spooks is in a class of its own. Even a not-so-good episode is streets ahead of anything else on the telly. Its demise, purely because it's been on the telly for a long time, would just be another step on the road to dumbing down.

By the way, I'm sure no-one really cares about these rating stars, but I can't help feeling guilty when I look at the ones for this PF thread! A while ago I was wondering what the stars were all about and clicked on one to see what would happen. I found I'd given this thread a one star rating which I couldn't then detract. Anything to do with PF should of course have a five-star rating, so I appeal to everyone to counter my mistake with a vote of their own!!!
