It has been confirmed in the USA that season 6 will return on the 7 January with a 2 hour premier. It's only 133 days away. If skyone follow the schedule as they have in previous season then season 6 will probably be shown here either the 4 or 11 February. The emmys are tomorrow night hopefully kiefer and the gang will sweep the boards and get the awards they deserve
Apparently James Cromwell from "Babe" "L.A Confidential" will play Jack's estranged father Philip in Day 6 and Eddie Izzard will play a villain! from TvTattle
Cheers alannah it has been confirmed that both Eddie and Phillip will be in Season 6. It is rumoured that Jack and his dad will not have a great father & Son relationship (no surprise there) its a pity that they couldn't get Donald Sutherland to play jack's father that would have been totally amazing.

The British comedian was set to play a villain called McCarthy in the sixth season of the hit thriller and has been replaced by actor David Hunt. The specific reasons for Izzard's departure from the show are currently unknown, but may be related to American network FX's decision in September to commit to his TV series The Riches, which also stars Minnie Driver.
British-born Hunt has previously appeared in sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond and played a starring role in Sky One football drama Dream Team in the late nineties.
When will Sky start showing season 6 anyone have the exact date?
Here are some photo's of who is who in season 6. The adreline rush begins on 14 January :clap:

Ricky Gervais has filmed a cameo appearance in cult US drama 24.
In the joke scene - shot for the season six DVD - Gervais plays a presidential advisor who keeps whispering that a crucial mission should be assigned to Jack Bauer. He then acts "incredulous" when a colleague says his suggestion out loud and takes credit for his idea.
24 exec producer Jon Cassar told the New York Post that Gervais was "just too recognisable" to put in the show for real, but added that another scene featuring his writing colleague Stephen Merchant will be seen in the season six premiere in January. "Stephen actually walks up to someone at CTU and hands them a piece of paper."
Gervais has previously had cameo parts in Alias and The Simpsons. Together with Merchant he has also penned an episode of the US version of The Office.
Saw a trailer of the new series the other night. Looked awesome, I might see if I can watch it :D

There is clip on fox.com with ex stars of 24 talking about how they miss not being in the show. The actor who plays Agent Pierce is reported to say that he is not in the season so far and is unsure if he will be in day six.
Disappointed that Agent Pierce will not be in Day 6 . Less than 3 weeks to go and I'm talking as a Sky One viewer!
It has not been confirmed that Agent Pierce will not return for day 6. The actor who plays him has said in an interview that he had not appeared so far, but they are only about half way through filming day 6 so he may appear on a later episode.Quote:
