Helen and Carolyn: Pillars of the Earth started on Saturday on C4. I imagine the first ep will be on 4OD. VG.

Thank you! I managed to find it earlier and watched Ep. 1. Absolutely loved it, though a couple of the characters look nothing like I imagined - Aliena has curly hair in my head (and possibly in the book), and is plumper than her TV character too, and Cuthbert is all wrong! In the book he is called Cuthbert Whitehead, has had white blond hair and eyesight problems all his life - I have always assumed he has albinism!

Other than that, it's all spot on so far and I love it. Thanks very much for the heads up. :-)

Worth watching? I'm not familiar with the book so you'll have to sell me the story. Or, you know, the hotness. Either would work.

Thanks a lot, will hunt it up and watch...esp as we have hooked the wii up to the net so I can watch online tv on full size screen!

Ooh, does the Channel 4 one work on the Wii? I've only watched iplayer on it so far!

To be honest I'm not sure...not tried it much myself at all yet.
