Am I the only person who is ridiculously excited that there are 2 hours of brand new Jonathan Creek on tonight?!

"When Creek is called in to solve unexplained events in a vast Gothic house, following several disappearances inside a gloomy old attic known as "The Nightmare Room", he is completely baffled.

For 70 years the room has been claiming lives. Could the ghost of a madman who preys upon human flesh really be to blame?

When two young women take shelter there from a raging thunderstorm one night, it's not long before the ominous "presence" has claimed another victim.

Determined to get to the truth about what has happened to her friend, the fearlessly sceptical Joey Ross (Sheridan Smith) finds herself working alongside veteran lateral thinker Jonathan Creek. Together they embark on a complex, often dangerous, investigation into a mystery which only continues to deepen...

Can Jonathan Creek once again shed light on the riddle and render the impossible possible? Or are his once formidable powers of deduction about to be eclipsed by the raw intuition of his younger counterpart?"

Woohoo! :D
 
Damn, I didn't know about this. :( I'll have to catch it on iPlayer later on.

I LOVE Jonathan Creek. :D
 
I used to love this when I was younger. I Can't believe it's been over 10 years since it started!
 
I used to love this. I've been catching up on the older episodes on Dave and G.O.L.D.. I'm a massive Alan Davies fan. Fellow Gooner, clearly loves playing the idiot against Stephan Fry on Q.I. ;)

I think this is going to have to be reserved for this Sunday afternoon. If anybody could pop up an iPlayer link here I'd be grateful. :)
 
PHEW! I thought I was going to be the only crazy Creek fan on here.
Awesome episode, shame it's a one off - I'd love to see another new series!
 
She's never caught my eye before, but Sheridan Smith, you buxom young thing!

You sure that's not because of the slight nipple slip (I think, was hard to tell) when she falls through into the tank of water? :p

Watched Jonathan Creek just now ,and loved it when it used to be on.
2 hour epic though, it could easily have been cut down by half an hour , seemed to take a while to wrap it all up. However some parts were really funny, classic Creek, the tramp scene and 3d porn watching , lol! adam klaus on top form as always.
 
The specials were always 2 hours long, it's no different.

Such a good series though.
 
Oh man, what an embarassing episode to watch with your rents :o. Sitting with your family while the 3D porn scene was on and about a minute of sex noises! :eek::D LOL!


I used to LOVE watching Jonathan Creek when I was younger, my favourite episode is the one where the guy killed someone in an outdoor underground cellar, then he started building a wall to hide himself behind, he overdosed on tablets and died behind the wall. JC then found that the hole for the toilet waste pipe in the floor was far too close to the wall, and thats how they found his dead body behind the wall. Does anyone remember this episode? :D
