Guest Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 We watched parts one and two last night (couldn't resist BBC4) but that means that we have to wait two weeks for a new episode at the proper time. Edited to remove a stupid spoiler - sorry wasn't thinking! favourite quote from episode two: Hunt: "You're surrounded!!!! By armed b******s!!!!!" classic!

Egluntyne Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Brill....just watched it having saved it on Sky+. Him Indoors just can't fathom out what is going on at all. (He missed the first 2 episodes of the 1st series) I used to go to school on one of those Orange SELNEC buses!!!! They were the height of modern transportation!!!! And a Rag and Bone man.....what happened to them....they were early recyclers! The one that came down our road had a horse and cart and swapped old mangles etc for firewood and brillo pads!

Egluntyne Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Brilliant again..... Some of the lines....i don't know how the actors keep a straight face. It reminded us about how far we've come yet again. Not on for another 2 weeks. Drat. Could have watched next episode on BBC4 but then there would be nothing to look forward to. Brill Brill Brill.

Popcorn Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 PSHow good was tonight's episode??? Deffo best of the season so far! The pre-titles teaser sequence made us all jump across the room! Poor Raymondo! Man! What a cool series! Oh Dan - don't tell me that. Gutted. I got to about 9.30pm and fell asleep on the sofa. Darren woke me up about 10.30 I gather it wasn't the IRA in the end and Sam was right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 ......and we had a power cut from 9pm for 2 hours,so missed it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I gather it wasn't the IRA in the end and Sam was right? No spoilers!!! Some people haven't seen it yet! If BBC4 repeated Part 2 last night then by rights Part 3 should be on BBC4 next week but the schedules are all over the place at the moment. Oh gosh - sorry! Thanks for BBC4 tip Dan.

Egluntyne Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Hands up all those who thought the Camberwick Green style start to this weeks episode was absolutely brilliant!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I thought it was magic - glad I've recorded it so I can watch the start over and over again, there were so many little details in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I loved the way Gene Hunt and the n*nce stopped the beating to wave as they were introduced, and then Gene carried on beating him with a dustbin lid. So clever and funny. The whole series is brilliantly imaginative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeramaSilly Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 My mum says that John Sims (the lead actor) can't do another series but they are going to do a spin-off with the rest of the cast. I hope she's right but then again I can't imagine it without John Sims!!! Sophie x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom and Barbara Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I heard that too Daniel - about the next series being in the 80s - but I heard that it will be a different cast....not sure how accurate that is...........shame though, I just love Philip Glennister!

Cinnamon Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 John Sims is playing Picasso in a new TV thing soon. I couldn't think of 2 more different roles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom and Barbara Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Picasso ????? ....... blimey.......that would be worth a look just out of curiosity. The only other thing I know him from is Jimmy McGovern's The Lakes that was on a few years back - great series but again soooooo so different from Picasso. He's obviously trying to go for more 'mature' roles. Will keep an eye out for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I can't help hoping that Sam gets back to 2007 and then meets Gene et al who will have grown old disgracefully. He won't be able to marry Annie though! It has been the best and most imaginative thing on 't telly for years!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 He won't be able to marry Annie though! He could be a Toy Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom and Barbara Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 that would be fab to see Gene in 2007!! what do you think he'd be up to? still a cop? ...but oh deary me I was about to ask why can't he marry Annie???? sorry, pregnant porridge brain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 He won't be able to marry Annie though! He could be a Toy Boy Now that's an idea I could warm to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I reckon that if Sam comes back to 2006/7 & finds his old colleagues,then Annie will probably be married to that nice young copper who is the only one taking any notice of Sams policing metheods - I forget his name now She will be the only one to recognise him of course. If they did do a Gene Hunt spin off they would just HAVE to call it Gene Genie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Hands up all those who thought the Camberwick Green style start to this weeks episode was absolutely brilliant!! Gene is so good He does always try Sam's methods despite taking the mickey everytime. I loved that whole bit. Can't wait until the next one. The swingers one was good too.

Tom and Barbara Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 ok - what on EARTH was all that about at the end last night???? who IS that guy? is he just there to set up Gene?????? Discuss your answer in 2,000 words or less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I would just like to say that Dan has got us so into this series! As most of you know, we don't have a TV, but Dan (my Hero) sent us his series one DVD's to watch. We are absolutely hooked! We are rationing ourselves to one a night and last nght watched the final episode from the first series.... Amazon will have Series 2 winging its way to us very soon...... I must NOT read this thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Nothing really to do with Life on Mars (although glad you enjoyed it Annie!) but I've just noticed your cube icon - how is that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 ok - what on EARTH was all that about at the end last night???? who IS that guy He's Danny the drug dealer from Withnail and I !!!! I reckon he'll pop up in the future when Sam makes it back. I reckon he'll be involved in the car accident somewhere along the line. Has anyone got any theories on the HYDE number Sam keeps ringing? Only 2 episodes to go......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Do you think it's Gene that ran Sam over and that's why Gene has to go or is this man Sam's doctor from the future and why does he need to get rid of Gene Last one next week This has been a fantastic series I hope all our questions are answered PS I loved the scene in this weeks episode were Gene was wearing his glasses as a disguise and that man didn't recognise him till he took them off Gene is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
