I'm definitely in the "not bad" camp. For a UK TV production, the production values aren't bad (the CGI not too ropey etc.)

It's what I'd expected from an ITV show.

Shauna and I have just finished watching it. I thought it was just OK, but she loved it. If I was her age, I'm sure I would have too.

To be honest, I was quite impressed. Better than I'd expected, and for that matter, better than Torchwood (which I also liked), because the characters seemed more competent and less like emotionally retarded cretins*, and it involved less gratuitous sex and somewhat ham-fisted gay propagandising.

*Actually, what I really think the Torchwood crew are like is a bunch of roleplayers who have picked characters (probably in GURPS) based on what they guess would be the required skillset for the group, but maxed out with character flaws so that they end up with a bunch of incompatiable idiots with overwhelming psychological hang-ups. The end result is a group of misfits that no one in their right mind would trust to look after a flush toilet, let alone a temporal rift.

Yeah, except for the over-eager, too geeky student bloke, the characters are pretty good.

*laughs at your footnote* That sounds pretty accurate. ;o)
