The New " War of the Worlds ", SBS, 09 July.

Really enjoying it.....the sbs series that is.
The Poms do a superior ( cf USA) job of drama incl sci fi, understated and character driven.

After having been captivated with the series so far, I thought the ending was really lame.
The preceding programmes had been chilling and suspenseful.
Hope it can be salvaged with a sequel series.
Peter.

I didn’t get to the end of the second episode without falling asleep.

Well, I reckon they ran out of funding. The last episode was just Pfffft. Like a balloon deflating!

Haven’t had a Baileys for years, but now I feel like one! [emoji16]

Interestingly, about a year ago I came across (and bought) a book that is a sequel to "War of the Worlds", labelled "Authorised by the H.G.Wells estate". Titled "The Massacre of Mankind", by Stephen Baxter, I was not particularly inspired by it.
