Anyone see 'Afterlife' last night? Very, very disturbing.

What's in store for us all when we die?
(Wonder if the Heavenly Reds actually sign players up there, or will we still be short of cash?)

 

We'll allus be skint lad....

...there's Joe Richards waiting for us, so what do <span style="font-style: italic;">you</span> think?

(Sorry if you're not old enough to remember Sir Joseph)

 

Go on then, tell us abart it

What was it all about?

 

No don't

I've still got to watch it.

 

Is it repeated at all?

 

RE: Is it repeated at all?

Nothing showing on Digiguide, but as it was on ITV I expect they'll repeat it on one of their digital channels at some point.

 

Thanks ES

I'll keep an eye open then.

 

Just watched it

Truly devastating. Top series.

 

so tell us what happened then?

Seen as you blocked it last time!
Would have liked to have seen it.

 

I'll try to give a brief resume.......

Alison, the medium, was visiting the psychologist sceptic friend, Robert, in hospital. He was in a coma having suffered a massive stroke, or something, as a result of a brain tumor.
She kept seeing a strange nurse in the corridors and on the ward whose presence seemed to signify that someone was about to die. Eventually this 'ghost' nurse came for her friend Robert and there was a confrontation between Alison as a medium and the spirit. Robert actually appeared to Alison in spirit at this point saying he was afraid to die, but the ghost nurse ignored Alison's pleas to allow Robert not to die, and Robert was led away by the nurse 'into the light' whereupon his previously dead 6 year old son was waiting for him in the light to help him cross over.
There's many more details I haven't related but that's basically it.
The sensational atmosphere created in the empty hospital corridors which were used for the chase to catch up with the ghost nurse had my flesh crawling, and the actual confrontation between Alison and the spirit nurse, whose face will stick with me for a long, long time, was very disturbing.
Having absorbed all the thought provoking details I was left totally numbed by the ideas behind it all.
I cannot relate to you how this made an impact on me, suffice to say that if you get the chance to watch it then do so, once, twice or more. If you have an ounce of doubt or belief in life after death then if you are prepared to soak up the content of the programme you'll come out the other side of it, like me, rather shell shocked.
How can we know what is in store for us when we die? A most fascinating subject to discuss.
You can look at this programme as either simply a horror story for entertainment purposes or as an informed suggestion of what is in store for us all.

 

RE: I'll try to give a brief resume.......

But the thing is nothing will happen to us when we die,</p>

I know how do i know whats going to happen but, my believes we just get buried. Dont beleive in no ghost crap.</p>

 

have a look at that again

you state what will happen then state you dont know what will happen!?

There must be somewhere for your energy to go.

oh.. and theres far too many people see these things. Mediums are for real i reckon but my thoughts are they have the ability to pick up on 'our' energy. That is why they can see things related to us. A bit like having radio signals in the airwave. Without a radio you would not know it existed! yet i ised to have a guitar that picked up radio 1 and it came out of the amp believe it or not! Imagine not knowing about radio (impossible now) and having that happen! But this is how i see mediums - they can just see and hear on a different wavelength.
