O/T - Cold Feet
Discussion
Did anyone see "Cold Feet" last night (Sunday)?
I thought that the car crash scene was probably better than any Public Information Film made.
I was starting to get a bit annoyed with first Adam and then Rachel merrily driving around one-handed with a mobile phone clamped to their ear and thought that it was a bit irresponsible of the programme makers.
Then the car crash happens because she is not concentrating, having just finished a call and then looking for a tape.
If the government concentrated on this message - that "inattention kills", rather than "speed kills" - then perhaps many of us would have a bit more respect for it.

They've said it's the final series. I've always watched it wtih my wife and the first two series were fun. It started to get rather darker last series and this one has intensified that trend.
I'm glad they didn't try to make it a speeding-related crash. They went out of their way to show that she was driving like an utter numpty, so it might make some people stop and think. She must have been looking away from the road for 50 seconds in the last minute before the crash.

Hence the emphasized "smiley" 
in my post . . .!
I think the plot was given away before this season started . . . not quite as secretive as "Coronation Street" with its 17 endings ..
Next week is the final one of "Cold Feet" . . . when Rachel returns from teh dead just as she's being buried
and Pete's secong marriage was a ll a dream and he's still with Jenny . . and . . . :takesabreakfromhisdesketc:

Used to watch Cold Feet to cheer myself up ! Hard to imagine based on this series. Is this the final one ? Feels like time they stopped as it's getting a bit Friends-like ie not enough ideas & they've run out of heterosexual coupling possibilities.
I believe they filmed 4 different endings, one of which was Adam getting a terminal relapse on his testicular cancer. Obviously another was the car crash one that they actually used, and I don't know what the other 2 were.
As has been said, I'm glad they didn't bring speeding into the crash in any way, and for that they deserve much respect.

I think I covered another one of the endings . . about it all being a dream etc . . .
