Why would we do that?. We have seen them already.

To enjoy all the nuances you missed and re-enjoy the bits you especially liked the first time round I suppose.

Sorry David - It was my attempt at Saga objectivity...a joke in other words. I didn't mean to be rude.

Excellent & gripping...but I have some 'end-note' issues which I won't discuss lest I spoil it for those catching-up.

Hi Graeme

No apologies needed! Rather it was my sense of humour that lacked sensitivity (not its normal condition).  I haven't seen the last episode yet as SWMBO wanted us to watch the Strictly final last night instead. Looking forward to it.....

Excellent final 2 episodes . We agree probably better than the first series.

Re: Last Panthers , we watched 1 1/2 episodes, very disappointing, poor acting.

Failed our litmus test of not really caring what happened to any of the characters

It was terrific! You kind-of knew that Saga would actually cry somewhere towards the end, and I dreaded that they might screw it up, but they didn't. 

More plot holes than Star Wars, but they really don't matter at all. I was missing Martin's character earlier on, but Henrik has (more than) made up for it.

Really hope they make a Series 4, and it looks as though they will from the ending.

Wonderful drama.

Some of my circle of friends have started saying 'o'/'a' for 'yep/oui' à la Saga.

Only watched it last night so kept well away from here until now - what an ending!

Great series and characters yet again. Hope BBC4 comes up with a good replacement for Saturday night viewing in the New Year!

SWMBO and I finally found time to watch the last two episodes last night. Gripping stuff. Now I am waiting for the series 1 DVDs to arrive from you know who, (as we only picked up on The Bridge during series 2), but unfortunately they are out of stock so it will be a week or two now I guess.

best

I may have to watch a Young Montalbano just to warm up a bit....

Brilliant from start to finish, no spoilers from me.
