Anyone seen this yet? Saw the first two episodes last night…..seems like a cross between star trek:voyager and Battlestar galactic.
Usually hate and SG stuff, but decided to watch cause of Begbie….

Looks promising, but hope it doesn’t fall into a “villain of the week” plotline……will be better if they can keep to one main plot line ala BSG.

Aye, downloaded it on Saturday. ST:VOY did come to mind straight away and I am trying hard not to hold it against it. I'm going to struggle with this one.

I'll reserve judgement for a few weeks and see how it goes. I already hate the Wesley Crusher type character - for me that has ruined it for starters.

Yes, Voyager did spring to mind - much like Atlantis was DS9

It might work. Robert Carlyle is strong. We'll see.

It's a good start, although Robert Carlyle outshone the rest of the cast for me. His character is intriguing - it's refreshing to see a more obviously flawed "good guy". I hope they manage to build on the tension and atmosphere of the first couple of episodes.

I watched the first one last night on Sky Player thingy... I liked it - I think it has potential.
