Ashes to Ashes...

[caz963]

Keeley Hawes - I wasn't sure about her when she was first cast, but she was pretty good.

Phil Glenister - fab as usual, but I can't help thinking that Gene's in danger of becoming a bit too over the top, and not in a good way. There seemed to be too many catchprhases - bollinger knickers, armed bastards (again), nancy boys etc. I'm sure all the cliched shots (his arrival, the bit with the guys on the boat) are deliberate and meant to be tongue in cheek, but again, I think tptb have got to be careful or it'll get old very quickly.

I enjoyed it, but I suppose because the audience is more in the know this time, it's going to be difficult to make it work in the same way as LoM.

That said - OMG - Zippy and George! Awesome.

And "Kiss me or punch me!" :) Heh.

But I'll be back for more.

Heh. It was fun, but I actually couldn't help cringing at a few bits of it... and I don't think I was supposed to.

But then, what else is there to watch on a Thursday night?
