Was at Westfield. Sat with valda in those lovely VIP seats. The goody bags contained a bag of popcorn, a Sky Entertainment 2011 brochure, a poster for Bedlam and a poster for Mad Dogs, and the same again on a postcard. Guess what we will get at the Bedlam Sky screening?

Really enjoyed the two episodes. It didn't take itself seriously, it had drama, it was funny and exciting and I loved all the male leads. I don't have Sky, so I need valda to tell me what happens. I want to know! 8/10

I met up with PXC who had prime postion, I didn't even know she was going to be there, so that was nice.
Mad Dogs wasn't what I expected. Instead it was funny a bit scary in part, not knowing what was going to happen and trying to geuss the storyline. So we saw 2 out of the 4 eps which will help my clogged up TV viewing plans ;) I was unlucky enough to have a couple of guys one seat away from me who talked the whole way through the second ep ( I was too scared to tell them to shut up) 8/10

Busy in Edinburgh last night - had to queue as they didn't let us in until 6.15pm. Goody bag didn't have anything with Bedlam in ours just the popcorn, poster,postcard and brochure. Could have done with a bottle of water.

Felt the first episode a bit slow but enjoyed the second episode. However it is like watching only half a film as I will not be able to see the last two episodes to find out how it all turned out. 7/10

Biggins. I was there too. Arrived at 6.25 and film had already started! Did they only show the first 2 episodes? We had to leave just as it was looking like a third was starting in order to get to Cameo for Top Gun at 8.15. That was some race, but the promise of free wine and popcorn was a tremedous "carrot".

I loved Mad Dogs, but felt cheated only being shown half a series. Surely they could have left out the "Next time"s and "Previously"s and edited it into a 2 hour movie if there are only 4 episodes? Surely the purpose of showing it is for publicity - in the same way as the preview movies - rather than to tempt us to watch the rest on Sky?
