Need to be a pretty confident Scottish actor to be singing The Billy Boys or calling folk Fe***ns knowing the odds are it’ll stick and be a burden, no doubt forever. Fair point but I was referring to this season being shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paranoid android Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Have to say I agree that this series has been a wee bit disappointing, and slow to get going - still well worth watching, though. He worst aspect by far is the Glesgae accent, and that scene where the Billy Boys first appeared was hysterical. Last week's episode was the best of the series so far, mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Does this mean Grounds Keeper Willie will be back in the next series? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShaggysBeard Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Looks to me that Gina is some sort of informant to the Fascists and Billy Boys after there being suggestion that Mosley and Gina know each other during the ballet performance. And possibly thwarting Tommy's plans was what her and Michael called 'Plan B'. Disappointed Aberama and Barney were killed off, they had a lot of potential as frenzied mad men. Could do with Michael getting done in. Underwhelming end to the series. Edited September 23, 2019 by ShaggysBeard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Poor series. Surely it was the guy with Finn that tipped off the plans? Why else would they show him reaching for the phone as soon as Finn left the room? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree about it being a poor series and leaves it set up nicely for the next one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Have to agree, this has been the weakest season to date. This might sound daft saying this about a drama but this season has been far too dramatised for my liking. Too much slow motion scenes and tension music and the plot itself has been going along at snails pace. The Billy Boys are a bit of a joke also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Wilson Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 It was far fetched to say the least and the accent was bad enough. Then they get Jennifer Saunders to play Churchill. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 It wasn't awful but just a bit meh tbh. I wouldn't have so much of an issue with the ending if it wasn't for the fact the next series is said to be until 2021. Normally most loose ends are tied up come the end of the series whereas this one just leaves nothing but questions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I was a big fan of the four previous series', but this one was pretty disappointing. It was as if they just threw a couple of half-arsed ideas together, killed a few characters off and inexplicably brought another back from the dead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC90 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Thought the season with the Russians was pish, same as this one. 2 out of 5 isn't great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy boo Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Finally got round to watching this and quite enjoyed it. I'd hoped there wouldn't be so many loose ends still not tied up which will make it a long wait for the next series. When did Aberama get done in I must've missed it somehow? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind we thought Alfie was dead. though? Always struck me as weird that Aidan Gillen's character started as proper badass then gradually softened - could there possibly be more from him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
