I know a lot of people here liked life on mars and I think they most migrated to Ashes when the show was over.

So did anyone watch it this season?

What did you think of the denouement?

Who was Keats - really. They made a point of showing that the elevator was going down, so . . .

What was the Railway Arms?

All is explained by Den of Geek (http://www.denofgeek.com/television/489472/ashes_to_ashes_series_3_episode_8_review_series_fi nale.html) in their review (warning, spoilers).

It's a good review and does justice to this great series.

Thanks for that link. That looks like an amazing site and I will definitely be exploring it.

I had forgotten some of the details they highlight, but honestly, if you watched LOM 5 years ago, how much can you really remember. I joke about my spotty memory all of the time, but even for the average tv viewer, unless you rewatched the series before this season, who would remember some of that stuff?

I guess my main complaint with the series is the fact that the LOM finale made you belief one thing about the nature of the LOM/A2A universe while A2A pretty much blows that out of the water in favor or a quasi-religious nature.

OK, maybe not religious, but at least supernatural.

Obviously there had to be some adaptations to account for the crossover of characters, but I think they chose the easy way out here.

Everyone on the site seems to be a fanboy though because this isn't even highlighted until you get way, way into the comments (ultraphobe).

I did enjoy the series though. Do you happen to know if there is anything planned as a follow up? I'll eventually get around to searching for any news, but if you happen to know . . .

thanks.
