I binge-watched this over the past couple of days. It was an excellent drama. The twelve are the jurors on a Murder Trial and the drama shifts between their lives and the trial. I've not been as riveted for a while. My OH watched the last episode and he was gripped, even though he'd missed the previous 9!
Brilliant ending.

Thanks. Just downloaded it. Love Walter Presents.

Which platforms can it be watched on?

Marilla Wed 21-Oct-20 16:17:04

Appreciate the tip! Which channel?

Jane43 Wed 21-Oct-20 16:47:31

I believe this is on All4. I will definitely watch it, thanks for the reminder.

It sounds good, I'll give it a go. Thanks.

Really enjoying it

GrandmasueUK Wed 21-Oct-20 22:24:55

It’s on all 4. I’m so sorry I’ve finished it all. Love to know if anyone enjoyed it as much as me.

Esspee Wed 21-Oct-20 22:39:31

Started it tonight. Found it confusing at times with the constant switching back and forth. We will finish it by the weekend but don’t rate it as highly as e.g. The Bridge, Spiral.

GrandmasueUK Wed 21-Oct-20 22:48:03

Oh I love Spiral. They have just started showing the new series in France. I have got series 3 and 4 of The Bridge on DVD after seeing series 1 and 2 just recently.

It is really really good (8 episodes in) Very clever structure and some good characterisations - eg Arnold

BlueBelle Fri 23-Oct-20 14:29:56

I ve just started it and I m really enjoying it so far
Yes it’s on All4
I m being very good and going to watch one hour each night so I m not actually binge watching but it ll make up for all the crap lovely programmes that aren’t on any more

All 4 has just started a rerun of West Wing.

Eloethan Wed 28-Oct-20 23:52:22

Spiral is my absolute favourite. Thought The Bridge was pretty good too. DNA looks promising.

Interesting ending for once.

I've just binge-watched Twin on BBC iPlayer - excellent. Will now watch The Twelve. Am loving DNA but having to wait for the next episode.

seacliff Thu 29-Oct-20 09:11:41

Oooh looks good, have just downloaded it. Thanks for the recommendation.

Sparklefizz Fri 30-Oct-20 20:14:26

GrandmaSueUK Thank you so much for recommending "Twelve". I have watched about 4 episodes and I am hooked.

Excuse my ignorance but is All4 on the Sky box, please? I don't remember noticing a channel with that name but there are so many....!

BlueBelle Fri 30-Oct-20 20:28:08

Yes I ve just watched 4 too sparklefiz good isn’t it ?
I m enjoying it, the fathers not looking too good is he?

BlueBelle Fri 30-Oct-20 20:31:25

No it’s not sky I ve got it downloaded on my iPad

GrandmasueUK Sat 31-Oct-20 01:20:04

RamblingRose All 4 is the download version of channel 4. I do have sky but The Twelve is part of Walter Presents series which was on channel 4. I really enjoyed this series with all the twists and turns! I'm glad other people are liking it too. DNA is inv again tomorrow. It feels strange waiting a week for new episodes instead of downloading them all at once.

No, he isn't.... you're right! I love her lawyer with the bushy beard. He's so clever with his questioning. The weather here is awful this morning with a bad forecast for the whole weekend so I can see I'll be binge watching it as I'm keen to know how it ends.

All4 is an app. It is free to download from iTunes or wherever you get your apps from. Some smart televisions have it on already, depending how old the tv is. Once you've downloaded it you have to register with your email address and a password. You can also load it onto an Amazon Firestick if you have one attached to your tv.

I watch it on my laptop and registered with my email address and a password.
