#35036 - Fri Mar 01 2002 02:58 PM Q about Ballykissangel
Geek Mainstay Registered: Mon Feb 14 2000 Posts: 622 Loc: Minnesota U.S.A.	Does anyone here watch Ballykissangel? I am a big fan of it but living in the U.S. I am usually quite behind in terms of episodes. The public TV station has to wait a certian amount of time before showing (because they must wait to recive) new episodes. Can anyone tell me if Ballykissangel is still being made? No spoliers please! _________________________ I have a catapault. Give me all of your money, or I will throw enormus rocks at your head.

It's always reruns...and reruns of reruns!But I do watch it! I'm able to get two PBS stations, one from Seattle and one from Detroit...plus the Knowledge Network (B.C.). They all carry it at one time or another! Don't know anything about new production, though! We can only hope so!

Are they making more? _________________________ I have a catapault. Give me all of your money, or I will throw enormus rocks at your head.

Whoa, I really thought that she'd pull through and was waiting for someone to bring her back to life, but NO! She really died, I was flabbergasted!

I LOVED Assumpta...Peter, too...and I got really yanked around with their session on the rocky, craggy coastline...admitting ...oh...whatever.... Then again...I loved The Thornbirds...for the same reason!

aoifs Participant Registered: Wed Mar 27 2002 Posts: 12 Loc: Dublin, Ireland	I'm from Dublin, but I went to a pub in Sligo and met Assumpta, kinda, and I also met your one from The Commitments if anyone has ever seen that. But I am not actually a big fan of Ballykissangel. _________________________ If my life got any shorter, I'd be dead by now.
