The Last Tango in Halifax

[TillieTrotter]

Has anyone else caught this. It's absolutely heart warming and funny and tragic. The best thing I've seen on TV in ages.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I've been thoroughly enjoying it, but I don't find thingy (I Claudius - can't remember his name)'s acting very convincing. Is that heresy?

[TillieTrotter]

That is indeed assuming you're talking about the great Derek Jacobi. Isn't it a wonderful story though.

Look forward to watching every week, great show

[El Pibe]

I saw it has the lovely nicola walker in, but all those dreadful northern accents, oh my no, it'd be like The Lakes all over again!

[Ladygooner]

I'm loving it - very well written and acted and great story lines

[TillieTrotter]

El Pibe, there's nowt so queer as folk.

Does anyone use butter?

[TillieTrotter]

I do.

[steveo]

Marmite but dad definitely did

[SilverSurfer65]

Totally agree with you - I record it if I have to be out and watch later.

Just blubbed my way through the last episode.

I take back what I said about Mr Jacobi - he played a blinding hospital patient/semi-corpse.

Nicely left to the audiences immagination - did he live or not (think not with the closing credits) and lots of unfinished sub plots left open.

Homelands, take note, how to leave things in eternal suspense.

Or until series 2 kicks off anyway... http://www.cultbox.co.uk/news/headlines/5605-last-tango-in-halifax-to-return-for-series-2... The modern tv mantra - if you've got a good thing going - keep it going... and going...

I couldn't even look at it for 2 years afterward. Traumatizing.
