Well Deserved Praise

Simply A Masterpiece

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Jeopardy is about a group of eight secondary-school students and their teacher Gerry from Falkirk academy, who travel to the Australian bush to look for UFO activity. They are given camcorders to record any sightings, and the series (much like the Blair Witch Project) makes extensive use jerky footage supposedly from the hand-held cameras.

What I saw: Every episode of season 1 - 3, alternate ending Happy and alternate ending Scary---I had watched this show religiously as a kid. I adored the mystery, the adventure, the time travel and the aliens. After the first airing of the final episode in 2004 (I voted for the "Scary Ending" alternative), I have been unable to view it again until now. The series has not lived up to my memories, but I wasn't expecting it to. I personally believe that it suffers from three main faults;1. Too much arguing. Far too much arguing. I get that there's a pressure on the characters, but it's hard to carry on with this amount of shouting per episode. The only reason why I powered on was because I was determined to finish the series a second time and get to the fondest-remembered parts2. I feel the scripts of each episode wasn't written tightly enough. Far too often I felt as though I was watching nothing but filler. I get the feeling that the series could have wrapped itself up in 2 seasons3. This isn't a slant on the actors because I thought they all did a good job, but two of the characters were intolerable in the first season. I'm glad they got that much-needed character development because I was close to packing it in. Although, after season 1, I feel that some of the other characters were not written as well as they were in the first season.An additional fault that isn't big enough to say the series greatly suffered from, but not small enough to ignore is the romances throughout. At times I felt at though the characters should have been concentrating on other more important things, and it distracted from the main plot a bit too much.Having said all that, by the time I got to season 3, I completely understood why I loved this show when I was younger. It does get very interesting with the red-eye virus and the mystery of where the characters go after they split. ---All-in-all the series could have greatly benefited from a few more script re-writes. As it is, though, I'd say it's a very good watch for kids who enjoy mystery, but are not yet old enough to watch something like Lost.Speaking of Lost, I think the ending to Jeopardy was far more satisfying than the ending to Lost. Especially the "Scary Ending".

Hey everyone. With regard to getting the BBC to put Jeopardy onto DVD, I emailed the BBC and they replied with this. They said that if there is enough public interest in a show, then there is a high chance that they will put it onto DVD. Just think - we don't need to wait for repeats to come onto the CBBC channel. I for one miss them due to work which is unfair. I've seen the whole series before when it was shown on BBC2 (i was hooked to it). I've already emailed the BBC asking to put the entire series onto DVD so the more people who email them or write to them, then the more chance they will put it onto DVD and make us all happy. Thanks Everyone ;-D

Yes, it probably is. I have watched the program for episode one back from the first series. The program is fantastic, the acting is great and the stories are excellent.A group of teenagers from Scotland are part of a UFO club, headed by their teacher Mr. Simmons. As a trip for the club they go to the Australian outback, a place known for numerous UFO sightings and encounters. Strange things happen where the group arrive, the radio stops working and gives out static and various other things. Is their something out there, watching their every move? The group all film everything on DV cameras, so think Blair Witch Project meets Close Encounters of the Third Kind.The first series was fantastic, great twists, and I thought this make quite a few scary moments, I must admit. I was disappointed by the tacky end. The second series was terrible. It was too confusing, some good ideas, but too many, so it tried to deal with all the points, making it confusing. Now the third series is a magnificent return to form, adding an Agatha Christie-esque plot, of having the group disappear one-by-one-by-one. With an excellent ending to top it off.I really hope they bring it out on DVD or something, I'd love to watch it all again!!!
