Exxtra Time Series 1 on DVD; is there a series 2? confused
Review date: 2008-05-23 Rating: 8 out of 10
First off, i have very guilty love of FBW. I was stunned when seson 5 ended with loose ends hanging. "discovering" extra time [ET] availablity was a real treat. i understand there was a series 1 , shown on tv in 2005, and a series 2, shown in 2006.
the present offering seems to about series 1[Extra time Series 1: 30 minutes - 12 eposides - 2 DVD set] I assume this refers to the 2005 series. so my question is this:
is there a separate package Extra Time series 2? I cannot seem to find this sole package, only ET series 2 , bundled with an expensive package including FBW season 3-5; which i already have.
any ideas? any help?
thank you

Footballers Wives Extra Time is a very poor spin off of the better written (up until season 5) and better acted (also up until season 5) Footballers Wives. It makes some faint hearted attempts to tie in characters and stories with Footballers Wives season 4.
By the 2nd episode, you are laughing to yourself and asking "are these guys serious?'(these guys being the script writers, ITV2 and the actors).
It is boring, not viewable and, in short, it sucks eggs. After each episode, you feel inclined to ask ITV2 for 30 minutes of your life back.
Yes, there is an abundance of T&A/flesh time in Extra Time, but sadly this does nothing to rescue the series...it is that bad even with page 3 esque totty being dangled in your face.
Unless you are going to buy this for a quid and some pennies...save your time and money. Do something more interesting with your time like taking up Latin or trainspotting.
A turkey is a turkey.
+ you will thank me for reading this and not buying this DVD.
Extra time, Extra stars, Extra hot drama!!!

On the heals of the phenomenal success of Footballers Wives, ITV2 brought its spinoff series Footballers' Wives: Extra Time to television on 26 May 2005. Following the dramatic season finale of the original FBWs season 4, ITV2 aired the first episode of the spin-off series introducing Anika Beevor the sister of everybody's favorite original footballer's wife Tanya Turner. Along with Bruno Milligan and his twins, a host of other characters, the first episode essentially picks up where Bruno is faced with the consequences of his unexpected confrontation with Conrad Gates. Many familiar faces of the cast of FBWs make appearances in the pilot episode to introduce the new characters of Extra Time. Lucy Milligan, Seb Webb, Harley and Shannon Lawson, Katie Jones and Amber Gates, appear in the series. Fans of the original show are divided in their opinions of the spinoff. But if the glamorous, over-the-top antics and story lines of the original series have kept fans captivated all these years, there is no doubt that this little spicy side dish will keep you going. Extra Time in essence is exactly that - what happens after FBWs S4 ends, the filler before S5 - the final season. So how can you possibly miss this one???
Series 2 debuted on 23 February 2006 with a longer episode run time of 45 minutes, with Peter Ash as Darius Fry and Julie Legrand as Janette Dunkley from the original series as regular cast members. The series ran parallel to the final season of Footballers Wives. ITV2 has yet to announce if Extra Time will see a possible season 3. So savor this while you still can! I for one can't wait!
