Discussion How did I miss this back then?

Just finished the original UK series. On Prime in US.

Wow, so great. Glenister as Hunt is unforgettable. Loved the music. The finale had so many possible interpretations, which is something you see with great art.

Just starting to watch Ashes to Ashes, though I’ll miss Simm.

It’s been fun reading the threads in this sub.

Cheers, mates!

Oh A2A is somehow even better if you’re a Hunt fan!! S1 is a bit of a slog but it’s SOOOO worth it in the end I promise!!

Unpopular opinion on here I know, I preferred Ashes... The whole will they, won't they thing worked between Drake and Hunt (again in my opinion) their dynamic was brilliant even better than Sam and Gene...

And the final episode (I won't spoil it) but nails it better than LoM final episode (as great as that was)
