Borodane 6,246 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Anyone watched the Chernobyl serie? Brilliant. I was only a young kid when it happened so I wasn’t fully aware of the potential disaster. Blimey they nearly whiped out a large part of Eastern Europe. Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe 3,543 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Not seen the programme. But did the tour about 3 months ago. The eeriest place I’ve ever been to. Those firemen (first on the scene) they are true heroes not like our charlatans (sure that will upset some ) ;) Link to post Share on other sites

I was only a young kid when it happened so I wasn’t fully aware of the potential disaster. Blimey they nearly whiped out a large part of Eastern Europe. I'm really enjoying it! Seen plenty of documentaries and docudramas on it, but I am really liking the way that this is a straight up drama. Very scary to think of the astounding lack of knowledge, about radiation and it's dangers most of the men and women dealing with the immediate aftermath had. Just starting episode 3 now.

Neverbefore 10,695 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Chernobyl is good, but holy christ has anyone watch when they see us yet? It's about the central park 5 who were wrongfully imprisoned for raping a woman and leaving her for dead. It's probably the best thing I've seen on TV in years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Well Chernobyl really was an excellent series from start to finish! Hats off to all involved. On a side note has anyone seen the that the Russian's are producing their own Chernobyl drama...but the Russian show will show the CIA as being the real reason the reactor exploded. The director of the Russian show genuinely believes there was a chance the CIA caused the disaster. No I'm not making this up! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/world-europe-48559289 Link to post Share on other sites

I watched it all and I liked it but its way over hyped. The characters are as one dimensional and standard as you get - the hero who sees everything that others dont, the bad guy who's arrogance causes the whole thing to happen.. The English language and accents really took me out of what was otherwise an amazing setting too. the amount of effort they went to to make everything else seem so authentic they should have just went all in and done it in Russian.
