There's a bit of a spoiler in my TV magazine for nest weeks episode. All I'll say is a there's a a a bloody great cliffhanger to lead us into the final show.

I think we're in for a bumpy ride as the director of the first two episodes, directs the last two!

Gutted we're nearly at the end of this fantastic series, it's gone way to quickly and I shall miss the White watch crew. Especially Jamie and Taron. I've gotten quite used to seeing heir little angst ridden faces on my TV screen for the last few weeks.

This time last year, Jamie was over here in the UK and had just started work on the show. Wonder if he'll be coming back soon. Not knowing if we're to get a season 2 is killing me. Don't want to say goodbye to yet another perfect TV character :(

Spoilers




I've been in that tunnel numerous times, horrid narrow , congested. Staggering that they didn't really use the real tunnel. Props people did a fantastic job.

History lesson from Billy, nice touch and a bit of info I didn't know!

Trish not getting on with Grace

Kev meeting Grace...sniff

Kev's hand on the car window , mirroring Trish. no need for words.. The look said it all..
..sniff

Asbo , Ziggy.. Heroe's

Bang, fire, explosions...how did they do that, movie worthy... Heart pounding!

Kev and Mal working together!

"Do what you need to but you've got half the time you thought you had!"

Asbo.. "I'll find her"....hero

Trish.."I'm sorry, I love you"


Mal "come on Guv, if the rookie can get through, so can we"

Heroes through the flames moment!

Kev finding Asbo in the smoke, and leaving him there to die,

Kev going back for Asbo and giving him the spare oxygen

Asbo in tears over not finding Trish.... Sniff

Kev running out of air, collapsing.... Noooooooo

Where's Trish?

Ziggy washing the grime off her hands

Kev in a hospital bed looking so vulnerable

Such a sad moment with the nurse, relating to the student nurse story Kev tells to Miss Pincham but this time the nurse pities him when she reads his notes and he knows she does. A beautifully sad scene, played the way Jamie plays them. Tear inducing to the hardest heart.

I'm going to have to watch it again. they did something very similar in London's Burning many years ago, but this was way better. Just seen the behind the scenes clip sky posted.
are they really going to be that mean?

What's happened to Trish.. Could fate be so cruel to Kev.....

There's a tiny clip of Kev and Trish in the sea on one of the Sky videos. It's not clear if it's real life, a dream, a flashback , a wishful daydream or they're ghosts. It throws all kinds of possibility for the final episode. I guess we're going to be guessing until the last minute as to what happens to the pair of them

Sky1 tweeted yesterday that it was too early to say if there was going to be a season 2. Didn't Jamie say his contract was up on Monday 7th, that if there was a season 2 . They would have to notify him by then wouldn't they?

If Trish isn't dead where the hell is she, unless she was unconscious, wouldn't she of been recognised or wouldn't she of tried to get word to Kev that she's OK. Although in truth, she's not the most considerate person so who knows!. I intrigued as to how they're going to explain her disappearance!

I emailed Kudos re second series. Their reply was they have no news of series 2 but they have their fingers crossed there is one. I suppose they're waiting for sky to say yes. Sky need to say YES!. The thought of another series will be the only thing stopping me getting uber depressed at Series one being over on Thursday.
Plus Jamie needs a job. He's got 3 lots of college funds to find!

This was my favourite episode so far, I was on the edge of my seat the whole way through, no fingernails left peeps.

Trish can't be dead, she just can't

Poor Kev, how much more can this man take :-(

Kev meeting Grace was a nice touching moment in all the chaos

Action Asbo that is all

So sky have just tweeted that it's to early to say if there will be a be a 2nd series but to follow Kudos, Sky and TheSmoke on sky twitter accounts. Slightly curious they've made such a statement!. My hope is that they will announce series 2 straight after this weeks episode along with details of the DVD release. Hoping, hoping, hoping!,,

From: genesgal	Date: April 7th, 2014 10:02 pm (UTC)		(Link Me)

I know the DVD details have been online but Sky will probably announce it after the final(sob ) episode. That's what I meant about the DVD.

Just saw another trailer for the finale. .. Fire and hugs. Have no idea how it's going o end. More edge of seat stuff me thinks. Can't wait but dreading it at the same time!

I'm extremely late to comment (given the season 1/series 1 finale is tomorrow), but I held off watching this just in case anything really terrible happened. March and April have been cruel months in terms of deaths on TV series I watch regularly. But even with my recent track record, I'm not convinced Trish is dead. How much is poor Kev to endure? Why waste so much potential in regards to Trish's character development? And would they really kill her off in such contrived way? I mean, to have Trish die because Grace's mom wouldn't listen and then became nearly hysterical? AND she had to save Dennis?

I was also having some issues with the uneven tone, particularly in the last scene with the nurse and Kevin. I would wonder if she was another figment of his imagination, accept she apparently was talking to Mal. Though Kev could have imagines that too. She just reminded me of Head!Shrink with behavior that doesn't seem appropriate in the moment.

Asta77, I really hadn't thought that about the nurse but you old well be right. I just linked the nurse being a total opposite of the student nurse Kev described in the first ep.

Slightly curious as to why Kev don't call Trish to get out of the car and out of the tunnel when things started going wrong, she would know what way she was going by the direction the cars were facing. .

My "gasp" moment was Kev leaving Asbo to die...I couldn't believe he did that. Of course a few seconds later he went back , but still that moment had me wondering if I knew Kev at all.

I think most of the episodes have had weak moments but to borrow from Mal " I 'd rather have The Smoke on a slightly disjointed day than another show on a good one"!

I know a few people(not really on here) have moaned about Jamie's London accent being wrong. A friend of mine lives a mile away from Mile End , in Bow. She's a true East ender, born within earshot of Bow Bells She said his accent was 95% right and that it was only the occasional word was wrong.

In previous multi episode trailers there's a moment of Trish and Kev together that hasn't been in any ep but that could be a red herring , a flashback, a dream, anything. I have no idea if Trish survives..or indeed if Kev does ,baring in mind we've seen him and Gog in a fire in the trailer for tonight's show. I have no idea what's going to happen but I'm already nervous about it. Will we and Kev get the happy ending we want!

Pippa has just done a pod cast. She said that some story lines are tied up but that it's also open ended for a second series if that were to happen.
The important thing is she still has Ziggy's haircut... 6 months after filming finished. With all the other actors being very tight lipped and quiet , can we but hope that series 2 will be announced at the end of tonight's show or is it just wishful thinking on my part!
