| My computer broke down just before the Dead Set series started. I began to think that zombies had something to do with it. Much belatedly I have to post how much I loved Dead Set, despite it's ending. I've watched it several times. Ash was magnificent. |

| Glad to be back ofni. Ash was perfect as herself and as a zombie. What I was most proud of as a fan of hers was her involvement in such a fantastic programme. It could have been so much longer and some bits could have been done differently. I only think that because I was so captivated by it. Patrick was my favourite character. Joplin should have won.  |

| Dead Set is being repeated on e4 next week with episode 1 on Monday at 11pm, episodes 2/3 on Wednesday and episodes 4/5 on Friday. There are also latenight repeats, which seem to interlace with the nightshift repeats of Screenwipe on BBC4.
So plenty for insomniac Chaisleyne fans to while away the sleepless hours next week then. |

Good to see Dead Set on again for those who missed it. Surely it will be shown on Channel 4 at some stage. Naturally it's always great to see Aisleyne (alive or otherwise) on our screen. |

Charlie said in a recent Radio 1 interview that Dead Set will be repeated in January on Channel 4, to "tie in" with the next series of Celeb BB

| I've just acquired the DVD as a birthday present. 58 minutes of extras on it, although Aisleyne doesn't feature. You do get to see a bit of Eugene Sully (BB6) discussing how to pretend to be dead with your innards being chomped on by zombified Davina McCall, plus lots of Davina in make-up and doing her scenes. Some deleted scenes are included, plus interview with Charlie Brooker and behind the scenes with the amazing special effects team. They make plaster casts of actors faces and stuff....creepy.

| To coincide with CBB6, I see that "Dead Set" is getting a showing on Channel 4 in three episodes next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights.
When she gets back from Jamaica, I wonder which CBB6 housemates Ash would like to sink her teeth into?  |

I had Dead Set for Christmas (good old Santa). No Ash extras, but worth having to see it all the way through without breaks. Those housemate characters are so good. They should be used again. Dead Set 2 - Big Brother before the zombies came. |

| I wonder what audience size the first episode of Dead Set will get tonight? Should be quite high, as it comes immediately after tonight's live CBB6, with nominations etc.
Correction:
Apparently the live nominations are in the second CBB6 at 11.05pm, which I'd guess should increase the audience figures for Dead Set, doncha think?  |

| Hmm, an interesting little burst of about 40 guests in the last half-hour... |

| Did anyone else notice that 'Space' had miraculously risen from the dead last night and turned up in Casualty? Not a mark on him, either. |

Ditto Pippa in TONIGHT's Casualty!
So when is it Aisleyne's turn then? |

| That's interesting, innit?
Wonder if that's why Mr Brooker is red-carpeting it this evening at the RTS Awards?
