I only thought she might be more relevant depending on what exactly the truth of his situation was. But as it was, I don’t think they copped out on an answer.

The only part of Life On Mars I have seen is the Camberwick Green clip elsewhere on these ‘ere boards (and pretty damn funny it is too - if the whole thing’s as good as that, no wonder people have been w*nking off all over it).
I wanted to see it all on DVD, but was worried the ending would be spoilt for me.
Fortunatley, those who DID see it seem to all have a different idea of what actually happened, so now it’s like one of those DVD films where they put alternate endings on as extras.

I just would have liked to know why it was that every time she showed up it was really scary - I thought she was going to turn out to be someone relevant in his life or something - like a little sister that died, maybe.
But probably that’s because I didn’t find her very believable as the test card girl. I remember the test card girl very well. She had wavier hair and a squarer jaw…

Mrs Balcony and I watched the series and we enjoyed it a lot. Fortunately we can watch a lot of good quality British drama on Dutch and Belgian tv, and BBC 1 and 2.

I know this is an old thread, but I missed the first few episodes so have been saving the series until Santa brought me the DVD, so I have only just watched the thing.
What a brilliant piece of TV! Loved it. And is it just me, or does Gene Hunt seem like a slightly harder/ cooler/ slimmer/ chirpier version of our very own Taunty Dan?!

If by ‘Taunty Dan’ you mean ‘unknown womble who’s never posted before but is quite cool’ then yes, I would agree with you. If you actually mean Taunty Dan then you should get somebody to wake you up :)

All I meant, to be fair, is that Dan has a long-ish brown coat that looks like his dad owned it in 1973. And he hangs round with people who wear flares and bad 70’s shirts. Well, me, to be precise… :(

Does he? I always imagined him to be a bit more 80s - New romantic, ruffly shirts, perm … all that sort of stuff. I’m actually quite relieved!

I’d be horrified if it weren’t for the fact i’ve heard this several times before! :D And the fact i get called “gene hunt” in rhyming slang…

Hmm. Remove ‘slightly’ and all the ‘-er’s from that sentence and… I think I’d still say ‘No, Dan looks more like a man in a pink floral dress. Because that’s what he is.’
