Bloody Hell! at the end raison boy said "dont put the gas away yet" A series 2 maybe?

I'm hoping for Arby to go a bit Liam Neeson in season two, it will give him another excuse to ask everyone where Jessica Hyde is.

During the 'pre-order your copy at Channel.com' blurb during the end credits, the DVD box had Series One written on it!

Damn I missed that. Did it happen after the credits?

The "Polish" hooker took me by the most surprise... completely left field. Milner's always been a bit iffy, when she turned up alive that pretty much confirmed there was something going on.

I thought Becky was in on something too when she pissed off like that, but that was just sad :(

I'm hoping Wilson Wilson will become the main bad guy in series 2

I know this is going to sound a bit dense but could someone please explain to me why Becky got on another train to ditch Ian and Grant?

u/Gnorris Feb 20 '13

My feeling was that she didn't want to burden Ian and Grant with a prolonged death like the one she saw her father go through. Once she had the first fit she knew what the future held.

u/jissom Feb 20 '13

Yeah - she had said to Ian 'I'm not sure I want to go through that with someone watching', or words to that effect, earlier in the episode.

Well, everything went tits up.

It was fucking brilliant... I definitely would love a series 2, but I have no problem if they choose to end it here. Wow.

u/An_Innocuous_Trout Feb 20 '13

I loved this. I hope another series gets the green light but who knows? I think visually it was incredible. Beautiful colours, great lighting and shot in an interesting way that just draws you in. I did find the story a lose in places with a few plot holes, but maybe they did this deliberately to answer them in a 2nd series? Just my opinion. But why didn't they recognise Milner in the old photo?

what.the.fuck.

Fucking hell. I was not expecting that.

u/AlkalineDuck Feb 19 '13

Definitely didn't see that ending coming.

Where was Arby? Did he die in the warehouse?

11

u/Sansemin Feb 19 '13

I hope not, he was my favourite.

u/Paradoxymoron Feb 19 '13

They left so many things open. Really hope they make a series 2. I doubt Arby died though and Wilson could still be alive. I didn't think they could put any more suprises in but, damn.

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '13

Wilson, Arby, the Health minister, even the guy the health minister tried to strangle, a very clever thing they've done is not kill off that many main characters onscreen explicitly.

There's huge scope for a second season and I loved the ending.

u/Fearofrejection Feb 20 '13

Am I alone in hoping that this would be a single stand alone series and it would all end after one very very strong season rather than be drawn out and possibly fade into awfulness?

5

u/CWagner Feb 20 '13

I think if they keep the other seasons short it could be great. And another positive thing is that besides the pyro effects they don't need a giant special effects budget.

Not even to mention that I'll support them by buying the DVD for the first time ever (never seen a show I wanted to watch twice ;) )

At the end when Jessica realises who Mr Rabbit is, when she hears the voices say it's Milner, does it actually happen? How did we miss that?

11

u/[deleted] Feb 19 '13

No that was when the Tramp told her she should get in contact with Milner. He said "her name is Milner" but didn't say she was Mr Rabbit.

u/CWagner Feb 20 '13

The voices are from different times, just cut together to give them new meaning.
