I can't help but think that it had an awful lot to live up to, especially when you consider the weeks of hype we had. After all, Life on Mars was pretty wonderful and I'm sure many of us were thinking as it had the same writers and (most of) the same cast it would be outstanding tv.
I was a bit disappointed. Philip Glenister was wonderful of course, he had all the best lines as you would expect.
Nothing against Keeley, I thought she was pretty good but I was finding her annoying, and lets face it she's not as good an actress as John Simm is an actor, if you get my drift - I switched over to BBC3 to see the final episode of Life on Mars after Ashes to Ashes and there was no comparison to how much better that was.
So, I'll continue watching but I don't think I'll be buying this boxset when it comes out.
