Pam Am

Just to say this is back on again to-night BBC2 at 10.10pm some found it good some did not according to the paper it continues the story from where it left off before xmas.

I watched the first 2 episodes but wasn't taken with it - I do hate the "flash back" scenes.

Had high hopes but it hasn't made it onto my list of essential viewing. What a pity.

mmm think I will only watch again if nothing better on the acting and dialogue are atrocious.

I actually quite enjoyed it, my husband thought it was dreadful,certainly not the quality of Mad Men (my favourite programme). The spy element was a step too far though!!! I will watch the next episode, but if I missed it, it wouldn't bother me too much.

I watched the first 2 episodes..........it probably wont qualify as a Mastermind subject, but it wasn't too bad. The fashions bring back memories. There was a shot of 4 of the air hostesses walking to their plane that was identical to part of the recent Virgin airlines ad. The start of it is apparently set in 1963, so I guess the Kennedy assassination will feature before long.

Just watched second episode - not promising!

I'm definitely going to watch it (recorded on Sky). My sister was a stewardess for Pam Am from 1970 for 8 years. She certainly had a glam life around the world. Shopped in Hong Kong, Delhi, New York. She was based in New York, Miami, San Francisco and Hawaii!

Mad Men.... meets Mile High*.... with a bit of 24 thrown in

Absurd... but liked it!!!!

* Does anyone else remember Mile High ? Loved that....

effblinder it's repeated to-night on BBC2 but it's late viewing,it is not quite same era as Mad Men just a bit later in fact,but shows nice glam styles and over the top lifestyle,very good if you want to relax and enjoy a girly programme,but must admit DH watched it but only for the Classic cars of the time.

Ooh I wanted to watch this. Might catch it on iPlayer at some point.

Is it as good as something like Mad Men? I'm imagining that it is (high hopes!).
