Ashes to Ashes

[The real Apache]

For those who, like me, got too pissed to remember what it was about

http://unrealityshout.com/blogs/ashes-ashes-series...

cracking series and it looks like Hunt comes back in a Merc next time around

The finale of Ashes to Ashes was the end of the storyline, the people behind the show have said there won't be sequel and I for one hope there isn't either.

Gene was reading a Mercedes brochure at the end of last night's show. From what I could see it was a 190D ! Hardly the most aspirational car in the 80's. The 190D was a taxi in some parts of Europe !

The E series as a whole is a taxi in most of Europe.

I know and I said 'was' and 'in some parts' such as Portugal.

not a fan then?

I loved Ashes to Ashes, but I can't see them doing a new series, now the twist has been revealed it wouldn't be the same, I suspect the new arrival was shown to show Gene still had a job and a purpose, it wouldn't have been such a good ending if Gene had been left alone and carless. Also a new series would want to be forward in time again and the 90's/ 00's is too recent.
On the car front, a 190D would be a shade dull for Gene but maybe he has matured a little, or he couldn't get a brochure on the 190E Cosworth, bearing in mind since the twist cars don't have to be 100% correct on release date or affordability.

Quite the opposite, I loved it but there's no need to do any more as everything has been answered, they should stop while they're on top and let Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes go down as some of the best television the BBC have ever made.

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin one.

leave it alone, re show both A2A & LoM on beeb 3 once or twice, but never new series.

[Engineer1]

Ashes to Ashes is what makes British TV better than American stuff look at Lost how many series?? With a British show they can decide that 3 series is enough so clear up the loose ends and run the finale, none of the spinning it out then having the show axed before the finale.

[MiniMan64]

Why do we need another one of these? Was it so hard to miss the 33 page thread already running on A2A?
