The Speaker, BBC2.

I thought there was a thread about this, but couldn't find it with search.

This is getting pretty intense now, the last three episodes in particular have had me on the edge of my seat. The emotional highs & lows, as well as the intelligence and content have been great viewing.

Terrific bunch of kids.

I watched this for a bit and found them to be the most annoying stage school brats you could ever wish to encounter.

Sill, at least they aren't out robbing grannys I guess...

Quite brave of them I thought to do what they were doing.

[FoolOnTheHill]

Me and the missus quite like this.

I don't find them annoying, I find it fascinating, you can tell they are in that grey area between childhood and adulthood, at times they can appear so grown up, but often when disappointment comes they revert to being quite childlike.

I don't think we should mock them for being articulate and confident, unless we're happy to breed a nation of Jade Goodys.

Well, my initial reaction was that they were all a bit 'Cynthia Snodgrass School for the performing arts' and ready to croon "I love you, tomorrow" for Daddy Warbucks. But then Duncan came on and did that very Pistonhead like Climate Change rant in the first episode, and I was in. And that Jordan cracks me up, he's like a cliché from Brass Eye, "Ask not what Armando Iannucci can do for you, but ask what you can do..."

MY NAME IS DUNCAN AND I AM GOING TO SHOUT, NO MATTER WHAT IT IS I AM TALKING ABOUT. THANK YOU!
