    I watched them on download yesterday. Loving seeing London in it, but know I'm gonna get annoyed at the geographical errors.

    Yes...I'm a bit "special" at times!

    Some shocking "english" accents in there but hey...

    we're watching it for Jack Bauer's ninja skills not the god damn accents!

    I love you Jack, you the man!

    Same for me - what is the general story of the last 8 years.

    Never watched it when originally aired. Dragged myself through season 1 last year but found it too long winded and dull. Much better programmes out there to spend my time on. Also can't stand Sutherlands gravelly whispering voice, making me having to keep turning up the volume in case I missed a peice of vital dialogue, only to find out he's talking shit, so turn it back down again.................

    As I always, I enjoyed it. It's melodramatic, it's predictable but I don't care, it's Jack Bauer kicking ass and this time he's in London. For me it's just a shame it's only 12 episodes.

    I found the storyline with his daughter ridiculous in season 1. Pretty much everyone she met was either looking to rape or murder her, I kind of lost interest after that.

    I am really enjoying this season, I’m gutted there are only 2 to go. The latest twist, although predictable if you stop and think about it, was great.

    There have been some brilliant Bauer lines too, particularly the ‘the only death on my head…’ and the hand one in last night’s episode.

    Jack, I’m going to miss you, DAMN IT.

    It has been fantastic. I was worried about the reduction to 12 hours, but it has certainly made it feel as though something major can happen every week.

    By far the most exciting season since Day 5.

    The moment in a certain North West London landmark a couple of episodes back had my jaw on the floor

    Have only recently watched up to the end of season 3.
    Not sure I can be arsed to watch the rest. Can I skip through to this latest one or is there too much of a storyline to miss out on?

    My gf's on season three as well. She's seen two or three people who are still alive in 9, which removes a little tension from the early seasons. I think they've made a concerted effort to pay off some unfinished plot threads from seasons 5 and 6, which has made it a pretty good season. I think you need to wait...

    S1 was OK, S2 was boring and I lost interest after three episodes. It's one of the shows that I don't care about being on Sky and not having Sky.

    Did anyone else notice scenes from the early episodes which were shot on location at Brookhill Road, Woolwich?

    I’ve just watched the final episode. I loved it, there is one moment in particular that almost had me shouting in my office. And no, I don’t care Jack drove to Southampton in 10 minutes.

    Despite seeing the latter seasons a couple of times, I don’t remember them well. I’d therefore put this not far behind Season 5 for enjoyment. 1 to 3 will always be 24’s peak.

    Just saw the last episode as well. Great finish. This season really has been a thrill ride from start to finish.
