Last thoughts

 We both enjoyed re-watching Last Tango on iplayer.

Now it is over, I hope there will be a series 6, 

because there were some threads and stories that were not resolved.

Gillian, for instance. Is she going to sell up or keep the farm? Will she stop telling people she murdered Eddie? Will she settle down with someone? The nice kitchen fitter? and Caroline - will she ever get back with John? She has begun to miss him, so...there is hope. I cannot see her settling down with the women from the chemist shop (spotted at the Hebden Women's disco). She needs someone with a brain and John certainly had that. I applauded his answer when Judith once asked "When did a woman ever start a war?" 

"Boadicea," he snapped after a moment. Then he thought of more, and the list just rolled on and on. And of course, Judith, now rich and a famous author but lured by the vodka - and Caroline. I could see her simply turning up at Caroline's clutching not a bottle but a case  of champagne!

Gary disappeared after Gillian's wedding and seemed to drop out of the story, yet he could support Gillian financially if she would let him. Alan is concerned about Harrison (I always hear  a silent "Ford" following that name) and Ted may not have lasted long in the story line but I cannot see any repercussions there. And Celia. What about Celia? She is the centre of most conflict in the story.

(The pic was taken yesterday from the car as we drove from Middleton-in-Teesdale to Brough. There were a few raindrops on the windscreen.)
