Ashes To Ashes – The Final Chapter.

Every time someone said “Let’s find out the truth about Gene Hunt”, it always sounded so negative. So wrongly negative. The majority vote – or at least what the reviews said – seemed to believe he killed Sam Tyler. I never thought he did. Gene Hunt, as I believe has been discussed countless times, remains [...]

Ashes To Ashes – Series 3, Episode 6.

Wow. I think this was possibly the most intense episode of the series, minus maybe the first episode. Although this one was much more tension-themed than the first – the first just revealed a lot. Not a huge amount more than we already know was shown in this, which leads me to the question – [...]

Ashes To Ashes – Series 3, Episode 5.

“No shooting Bols? Alright, let’s go run him over.” Now this was a pretty good episode really – musically, it was outstanding, and there’s some old faces in the guise of “The Gay Tash Twins” – DCI Litton and DI Bevan from Manchester. These two slightly evil characters are actually oddly likeable – Litton anyway [...]

Ashes to Ashes – Series 3, Episode 2.

Like last time, if you’re planning on watching this, don’t read – I am prone to give endings away. Also, this should have been written on Saturday but I had no computer and good company – so, yeah. No writings until now! This week’s episode I wasn’t as gripped by as last week’s, but I [...]

Ashes to Ashes – Series 3, Episode 1.

This is reviewing the first episode so if you haven’t seen it and are wanting to, don’t read. Unlike the rest of the world, I have not had to wait a year for this new series, due to having watched the entire of ‘Life On Mars’ and the first two series of ‘Ashes to Ashes’ [...]

David Cameron as Gene Hunt? Dear GOD Labour…

Yes yes I know I talk about Gene Hunt a lot and it’s probably boring but – I don’t care! Anyway, check this out if you haven’t already… This, it would seem, is Labour’s current budget poster (apparently they have no money?) for the upcoming election. WHAT IN GOD’S NAME WHERE THEY THINKING? First off, [...]

Television Times – Ashes to Ashes (an introduction).

Or, why I love Gene Hunt. So. The great debate. Should this spin-off from Life On Mars ever have been allowed to occur – does it taint its marvellous predecessor – or, does it overshadow and outrun Life On Mars, and viewers are very happy that there are many more hours of Gene Hunt to [...]

Television Times – ‘Life On Mars’

Although I may be somewhat “late to the game” on this count, this doesn’t make the programme any less amazing. Me and an associate began watching (she insisted) the first series on Sunday evening. It is now Thursday and we have four episodes left to go of the second series. I LOVE THIS PROGRAMME. Despite [...]
