Love the series. Stephanie Turner was great. Love the theme. It is good that this show shows the deeper side of families and the difficulties involved.
I like this episode so much! The difficult relationships in families are shown so well! And it is nice when Tom explains that despite the negative judgment his father and theacher have, he is proud of what he has accomplished with his life, and I agree with him.
I only just discovered this show. I am a fan of crime dramas but I find this series so far to be compelling in a different way than shows such as Vera and Morse. The comments below seem to demonstrate a lack of ability amongst some--perhaps too many people to appreciate life's real dramas. I like this show and I loved this episode. Thank you for your positive comment.
He should have said instead "He keeps wearing a skirt around the Station" because that would have made the comeback from Scots a bit trickier (They could have said like "Well at least he not in the Grenadier Guards so he doesn't wear a dress").
Ladies be aware. Any time a bloke heads off on a business trip, any trip, alone this is exactly what happens. Word to the wise (Public Service Announcement).
4:56 The doctor played Emily Bishop's last husband in Corrie. He and his sister had a pet shop. (I think he was her last) This is a great series. Enjoy watching it.
I didn't like Joe. But my god, the people from his hometown are far more unlikeable. Pressing all their high expectations on him as if his life was theirs to steer. Why don't THEY get the Jag then?? You know Joe's on the right track because for one, he's married to Jean. It's the people you choose to be with that matters. I thought this episode was ahead of its time.
What a cringe worth episode. The boss lecturing a subordinate on family dynamics and how he should leave home. How things have changed. It's quite obvious that Mr Darbly married against EVERYONES wishes. Thank goodness for him that he did.
Dunno I remember it was half a crown, 2 and 6, 12.5 nuppence for a pint of Watneys keg bitter in 1966 and pint of scrumpie cider was a Bob (5P) in Swansea in 1965
He always has been... Always sounds drunk Thank goodness for Joe and George And of course Jean She was turned away from a nightclub while Tom was away they said NO JEANS
Are you still talking to yourself while staring at the mirror.... The doorbell is ringing It's the men in the white coats They're coming to take you away ah ah They're coming to take you away
