Chernobyl miniseries - coming to Sky and HBO in May 2019

[cu3ed]

So I've read a lot of recommendations for 'Threads' over on Reddit which is supposed to be very good. Not seen it myself though. Might have to check it out...

One of my favs, but its very VERY hard watching, it doenst pull any punches. The line, " The living shall evny the dead" is pretty much the embodiment of the whole film.

Also, cause of this series decided to watch a docu on Fukoshima (Sp), thats a scary mess as well.

It will just be a sensationalised version of events

You're so wrong. Having seen the first two episodes, there's nothing sensationalised going on at all. It appears to be a very accurate portrayal of what actually happened and listening to the podcast with the show writer / producer, he's continually talking about how they wanted to be accurate.

So has azazl187 said whether he's watched it yet ?

3rd episode is even better than the second one Great TV.

Yeah Threads is fantastic but super dark and depressing.

It first airs on HBO on Mondays.

 

[Armageus]

Might be wrong but thought it also had a 2am showing on Atlantic like GoT

 

[Feek]

Yes, it’s on Sky Atlantic at 02:00.

Another incredible episode. This is the best thing on TV at the moment.

 

[smr]

[Gee]

Episode 3 is probably the darkest one so far.

Outstanding TV. Kinda irked now my Sky sub is due to run out in a couple of days rather than in a couple of weeks, meaning I'm going to miss the last two episodes it seems.

Legaslov's graphic description of the effects of extreme radiation poisoning was also quite informative

Episode 3 is one of the best of any tv show.

The miners gave me a chuckle

You can just subscribe to NowTV for a month and you'll be able to watch them

 

[Kainz]

They never listen...

 

[arc@css]

Is this on Prime?

Yet in the same breath barely watchable in parts. Incredibly hard to stomach some of it.
