The Transporter: Season 1

Episode 1: Trojan Horsepower.
Frank is hired by his friend Dieter to deliver a prototype for a engine part to Paris, while the designer's daughter is with Frank they are pursued by assassins.

Episode 2: Payback.
While making a delivery, Frank looses his package in a hold up by a Russian who has hired someone from Frank's past.

Episode 3: The General's Daughter.
Frank's latest package is a young woman he has to get out of the city, who's father has ties to a crime syndicate.

Episode 4: Harvest.
Frank's latest job is to deliver a heart that is for a 16 year old unaware a 14 year old needs a transplant awsell, Frank finds out from Inspector Tarconi that the heart was stolen.

Episode 5: Dead Drop.
Frank travels to Philadelphia hired by a blind man who trained Frank in the C.I.A to help clear his name while being pursued by a mole and assassins.

I have always wanted to see this series but could never find a decent price for it and in English audio, Chris Vance takes over from Jason Statham and manages to do a decent job and it's more watchable than The Transporter Reloaded. Francois Berleand from the movies reprises his role as Traconi and Delphine Chaneac pops up that makes you wonder what her character is all about.

Episode 12:Cherchez La femme

This was a good series and certainly kept you entertained, the fight scenes are certainly choreographed well just hope the second season is the same if not better.

I'm currently watching old Coronation Street eps on YouTube. "Old" as in 2000s, so I've never seen them anyway. Started off with the Richard Hillman story, which was pretty good actually.
I may need to get a life.

Lol, that be fun to listen to,
there a pub near us that has bands / singers, and a notice board that tell you who up and coming, and one of the bands must have been a fan of Corrie because they was called Hilda?s flying ducks.
Fans of old Corrie will know the reference, if not Hilda one of the most iconic soap characters ever, and had a wall that was a mural and she had about 5 ornament birds hung on the wall.

Yep, she bet liz ?1 she could lure Roy into bed, she got him drunk at a do and next morning he woke up in same bed as Tracey, she found out she was pregnant but it was Steves after a one night stand but she pretended it was Roys and offered to sell Amy for 20 thousand, (I think it was that price) then they got married because Roy thought it would give him more rights to the child.
