SHOW: Ashes to Ashes

"Ashes to Ashes features DCI Gene Hunt (played by Philip Glenister) from Life on Mars. He is joined by an experienced female detective and trained psychologist from the 21st century, DI Alex Drake (Keeley Hawes), who wakes up in 1981 after being shot in 2008. She concludes that she is either a second away from life, or a second away from death, because of the detailed notes she has studied from Sam Tyler, when he found himself back in time in 1973 after a car accident.[8] Also reappearing are Chris Skelton (Marshall Lancaster) and Ray Carling (Dean Andrews). All have transferred to the Metropolitan Police in London, and Chris and Ray remain loyal to Gene. Augmenting the team is WPC Sharon 'Shaz' Granger, (Montserrat Lombard)."

I decided to make a thread seeing as there wasn't one and the second series is on soon (next week I think, but apparently it clashes with Heroes ).

What do you guys think of it? I don't think it is as good as LOM and Alex really annoys me, but I will watch it anyway.

aha pvr freeview box. harddrives are awesome.

but yeahhhh Alex annoys the frick outta me too but gene still just about saves it for me.

I did still like the undertones of "Your nowhere near as awesome as sam tyler." in the first series though.. or maybe that was just my mind playing tricks i dunno.

I got halfway through the first series, really excited about the spinoff and then gave up in utter disappointment. Alex is too irritating to put up with and Gene's character has turned into a soft sissy.

The only reason I stuck to it for so long was because of Chris going through that adorable New Romantics phase and Ray's perm.

I watched Heroes last night so I will watch the new ep sometime this week. I think Chris has gone blonde (!?)

My Mum & I love this programme! I hope they will make a new series...
