Actually quite enjoyed this, blatant 28 Days rip off but thats not a bad thing in my eyes. Anyone else watched the first one?

BillieT · 2008-10-28, 01:08:48

Yeaaah I enjoyed it too, Kevin Eldon seems to be in just about every program I ever watch.

TempestDisco · 2008-10-28, 01:22:07

Ahh, good old Kevin "Warm lemon drink" Eldon.

Anyone know if this will be on 4od or the like? Tempest "4 Channel Telly" Disco can't watch the original broadcasts.

Really well done.

jonny-d · 2008-10-28, 12:50:35

Yep. I was impressed, good production values for an E4 drama, pretty well shot and not a bad script behind it. (Charlie Brooker aka one half of the Nathan Barley writing team)

I agree....it's been done (better) before, and the whole BB thing is just a gimmick cos they're both by Zeppotron / Endemol. At least George A. Romero had summat to say.

Le_Coop · 2008-10-31, 19:21:34

Thanks to you lot i relinquished my TV ban for this and got in on 4OD, pretty good

I think ive just noticed that the 'normal' bad language makes it better and more 'real' :)

AlexTheKid · 2008-11-01, 03:51:00

Mat Payne · 2008-11-02, 13:16:27

Chris Morris about his British Jihadi comedy coming soon

Terrorist cells have the same group dynamics as stag parties and five a side football teams. There is conflict, friendship, misunderstanding and rivalry. Terrorism is about ideology, but it's also about berks.
Four Lions is a funny, thrilling fictional story that illuminates modern British jihad with an insight beyond anything else in our culture. It plunges us beyond seeing these young men as unfathomably alien. It undermines the folly of just wishing them away or alienating the entire culture from which they emerge. It understands how terrorism relates to testosterone. It understands jihadis as human beings. And it understands human beings as innately ridiculous. As Spinal Tap understood heavy metal and Dr Strangelove the Cold War, Four Lions understands modern British jihadis."

And no doubt loads of jokes about nailing virgins in the afterlife
