The ever angry and seemingly indestructible Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) is one of TV’s ultimate heroes. Unravelling conspiracies, shooting at bad guys and saving his inept daughter from whatever hole she’s dug herself into is hard work, but Bauer doesn’t stop for a second.

Shot in real-time, ‘24’ is a relentless action series that only further highlights Bauer’s frantic urgency. He has no problem torturing suspects and has been on death’s door on numerous occasions but somehow he always bounces back to fight for another day.

Quote: “I have killed two people since midnight. I haven't slept in over 24 hours. So maybe you should be a little more afraid of me than you are now.”
