It is supposed to be a 'good' ending, presumably she goes back to 2009.

And over so quickly as well ... shame. Not like these American series that go on for 24 episodes a series.

Well, she can't go back to 2009. They already said there will be one more series.

Did they? I haven't read that anywhere. I'm sure there will be another series of some sort, but thought it would be a different person who meets Gene Hunt.

I would quite like to see the DCI in 2009 cleaning up London with his own particular brand of law enforcement. Lets see just how long "I claimed within the rules" stands up in front of him.

According to this series three of ashes to ashes is being storylined now, wether it'll appear depends on how well received series two is, and so far I'd say it's doing pretty well, so expect a series three.

Beyond this, I'm sure I read something by Phil Glennister stating that he's going to retire Gene after the third series of ashes to ashes as he does not want to overuse Gene.

I'd rather just watch to see what actually happens, no point in guessing.

I always thought she was a woman, certainly looks like one!

No, but you need to watch the start when Ray eats a deep fried weener - I split my sides with laughter, funniest part of the series by far

What an excellant ending -- either a bizarre coma whilst in a coma or some form of brain damage.

Damn you BBC -- just eight episodes a series and a year wait between each one!

I never caught life on Mars, or Ashes to Ashes series one. Started watching series 2 about 3 episodes in and I was totally hooked. What a fantastic program

The ending... really weird and creepy, and I'm still trying to get my head around the storyline as I can't put the pieces together

cob,

You need to see Life on Mars series 1 and 2. As fun as Ashes to Ashes is it is not a patch on the original.

I would go as far as to say one of the top 5 pieces of TV of all time. A fantastic blend of drama, humour and almost David Lynch type weirdness.

If you enjoy Ashes to Ashes you will love Life on Mars.

I agree, the plot was much better in life on mars but the acting/characters were better IMO in Ashes to Ashes.

Enjoyed them both so far but Life on Mars left me guessing much more - I still haven't figured out the ending
