I agree. Oh well.
From someone that struggles to understand that Game of Thrones isn't reality, that's amusing.

Same. I felt sad at the first one, most unexpected and not quite how I thought it would end for that character.
Pregnant with promise but barren of achievement. The second, I don't understand.
I thought the Doc and Chalky had worked out they would work together? What happened in the chat that followed the promise?

Everyone in that room (apart from the little girl) knew what was going down. As soon as Chalky figured out who the little girl was (do the math, as they likely say in Atlantic City) he had more important things to worry about.

It's good that Van Alden went out doing what he loved best - strangling someone in a fit of rage.

I found the two endings for the two main/bigger characters of the show were too 'understated'.

Anyway I thought the etiquette was no spoiler tags necessary after the episode has been shown in the UK. smilebeer

Right, thanks. I knew the family connection. I was just believing what they were saying for the benefit of the woman...good acting. biggrin


And yeah, I suppose it was fitting. biggrin

Episode 7 was a downer. Sad to see how the empire was lost, but knowing history it had to be something like that.
I can guess how it could come up smelling of roses.
A bit rushed? Only 8 episodes.

I was a bit annoyed when they started talking over the characters just before the end. Who at Sky thought that was a good idea

This spoiler is linked to the last ever episode that was shown in America last night.

had this on in the background but basically, who was Nuckys assassin or was it Jimmy's kid all grown up?

also, what happened to the guy with the half face

Lemmingjames you might want to hide your post as you can't see spoiler tags on the mobile internet.
