I’m watching too. Smithy was horrible before he left and came backJust watched an episode last night on U&Drama. Smithy being rotten to Luke. Ooh, took a really tragic turn.
I can't summon up interest to watch this particular series constantly. I just pick and choose an odd episode here and there.
Are you watching the ones on Drama?I think actually they do leave some things unfinished in that particular series. It's not entirely down to me chopping and changing in terms of watching episodes.
I went back recently and watched the end of the final episode, Jack's speech - Respect. It's a fantastic piece of writing and a great piece of acting. I think I remember reading that Simon Rouse said he was genuinely emotional delivering it.
I'm also still re-watching the series on U&W. Gina's departure episode is excellent. Again, the sincerity of the actors makes it very moving. Tony having overheard her talking to Heaton, knowing that she was leaving, and saying she was the best gov. And her last interaction with Smithy - a great scene and very credible.
I was watching Byker Grove recently and he’s in a few episodes. It was a weird hearing a Geordie RogerWatching a Hercule Poirot mystery on tv this evening and who should feature only John Bowler aka Roger Valentine.Very dapper he looked!
Are you still watching the ones on Drama?I'm still watching these times. It's currently on the stories where Jo was promoted to sergeant, and is in uniform. I think she is such a great character. She got the team back on side after they were really disgruntled by Callum being suspended. They heard her tearing a strip off Max for criticising them, and they came back onboard with her.
Some good storylines but I really can't stand Max. He is the one character I can't see any redeeming features in at all.
