Apr. 12th, 2007 10:25 pmUp at 5.30 this morning as we were being picked up at 6.30 for the long drive up to Fleet for Hart's Civic Day.
( Hart Civic Day )
On getting home, went upstairs for a lie down till Tottenham v Sevilla came on. The Spaniards' two early goals killed off the game, so switched off at half-time and listened to some music till it was time for the last Life On Mars on BBC4.
What a finale! I think we all knew that Sam was in a coma and his life in 1973 was symbolic of his medical condition in some way, but no-one expected Gene Hunt to be the disease. The twist halfway through, when we, like Sam, were all left wondering if it was real after all, was a masterstroke, but the ending was the biggest twist of all - and rather sad when you think about it. Still, a fantastic programme. As I never saw Series 1, once my holiday is out of the way I'll have to buy the DVDs of that.
