Series 2 - Episode 7: Pretty Much Dead Already

The Walking Dead

Sorry, this episode is no longer available to watch on Demand 5.

Find out why

The secret of the walkers in the barn is exposed by Glenn. Rick confronts Hershel, who explains that the walkers are members of his family and friends who became infected. Refusing to acknowledge the world's new reality Hersel hopes a cure will be found...

Meanwhile Shane tells Lori he believes that he is the father of her unborn baby. She tells him that even if it were true, she wants him to play no part in raising the child. Angered by Lori's reaction, Shane hands out the cache of weapons telling the group that it is time to clear the barn of walkers.

Releasing Hershel's undead neighbours, friends and family, as the walkers stream out into a hail of bullets, the final creature out of the barn is recognised by the group...

    Good episode, as usual. Video wasn't playing at first, despite several different attempts (refreshing the page, restarting the browser ect) but then played perfectly with no ads from start to finish immediately after I reported the problem via the link on the right.

    Like most of you I to had problems watching this. I discovered that I needed to download adobe flash player 11.3.300.262. I managed to watch with no problems, hope this helps, and it's a free download!

    I thought it was my ancient laptop messing up but it won't play properly on my son's super-duper one. Wonder if the ch.5 folks ever read these comments. It seems we all have the same trouble.

    Might as well make a case for the positive side, since there's so many negative one's. Five player works fine on my computer. I've never had an issue with it as far as I can recall. In fact I've had more issue's with BBC Iplayer on the rare occasion freezing my computer. As for the ad's? It's a free to view channel so they need to make their money somehow otherwise they won't be able to buy the rights to show a great programme such as this one. And if I'm adding correctly here, there's less advert time on the player than there is if I watched it on the TV. Finally, what a twist at the end!

    Adverts are a pain keep freezing when you refresh goes back to the beginning again and get adverts all over again. Takes ages to get to programe and then that freezes. Takes ages to watch a programme

    Just watched this episode all the way through, no problems, didn't bother using wifi, was hard wired through and ethernet, but no issues. Only real problem was having to sit through x4 lots of adverts, but I guess channel 5 aren't a charity and have to make money one way or the other.

    TIP: When the ads come on, turn down the sound and scan down.......they are so much less irritating that way! : )

    Brilliant finale music, very moving. Is it justwhere i live or is the streaming poor, voices not in sync with visuals?

    seing as advertisers don't care that they are destroying our viewing enjoyment, lets boycot any goods advertised if they stop 5 running smoothly, yes 5 need revenue and advertisers want us to see their adverts but come on! the more irritating you are the more people hate your input, the LESS they will want your product.
