Hi,
Sorry Greg. No weekly repeat I'm afraid.  You'll have to either wait for CNX on Sky Digital to (hopefully) buy the satellite rights to Season 2, or wait for the DVD release sometime next year.
I've PM'd you a synopsis of the episode. Be warned, it contains spoilers... obviously.

I don't mean to highjack, but has anybody noticed that CNX is showing the wrong "on previous episode of the Shield" promos at the beginning of the episodes? This, along with the fact that TiVo's guide data is wrong for the episodes means that I have no idea what ep I'm watching until I watch it. Very confusing.

Most of the time those 'previously' cuts are an amalgamation from several episodes from the past, particularly if certain issues that appeared in all those different episodes are going to be touched upon or resolved in the current show.

i don't like those previously on.... which most US dramas seem to have
they give away what the focus of the episode is going to be
Do the producers seriously not think viewers can remember what happened a few episodes ago
then again they are aiming at a US audience
Have you tried digiguide Az they always seem to be spot on
