What a finale!
Anyhow, more news: second series commissioned by the Beeb, for broadcast next year. Here's to it being in HD this time....
hmmm
looking forward to more 'bolli knickers' and 'armed bas****s'
I love this program. I love Gene, Ray and Chris. It's all good. Keeley is gorgeous, the storyline is fab, the 80's setting is so goddam cool and the handbrake turns in the Quattro rock. It's ace.
