let's hope so!

They did a podcast episode for the first episode of the new series, the Christmas special, so maybe we will get a podcast for the rest of the series soon? Has it been said anywhere that the podcast won’t be returning do you know?

@@philjohnston9889 yes, they said they aren't doing anymore

What 3x3 needed was strangling before they even thought of the abomination

@@marknewbold2583 Why? Too time consuming? I love all the BTS stuff.

@@Roadent1241 Budget cuts I guess.

Sadly the last for a long time

Facts

That's where I heard that!!!! It was driving me nuts

Outside No.9

Same here! 🤞🤞

No, they stopped doing them.

Sadly, they’re finished. The last one was for ‘The Bones of St Nicholas’

I suppose you could argue that a man who's been living a facade for 9 years is so deep into it that it's second nature by now. He probably does that every time in the off chance Reece's character might come in.

@Jake Godfrey Like I said though, Reese's character has already seen it many times and doesn't need more reiteration, would be pointless. I don't buy the idea that Steve's character would do it just because he's in the routine either, he's in full control of the situation as evident by the ending of the episode.

@Jake Godfrey And the idea that he does it because it's second nature makes no sense since it is neither explained or is relevant in any way. The blood was for no one other than the audience, Reese never saw it and Steve had no incentive to do it.

Because the idea is that of the equal commitment of the two characters to this relationship, but for completely opposed reasons. Steve's character has sunk nine years of weekends of his life into fake affection, kisses, gifts... The works. The point by the end is that you're supposed to realise that he's consistently kept going every single little detail of the facade without fail for those nine years - just to get where he wants to get to & do what he wants to. Reece's character has submerged himself nine years into affection and caregiving and genuine feelings of love; despite all else and any other opportunities in life... Bar one instance, which he admits by the end. That's sort of the thing you're left with by the episode. Reece's character has loved Steve's for nine years, and the one thing he's hidden & lied about... He ultimately admits, as he's on the cusp of thinking that Steve's has been hiding things. (Ironically, he's right - but in the wrong way!) It's their last weekend, and Reece's character admits his one moment of fault because he's a genuinely caring guy who has been in love with Steve's since he got himself out of the phase where he was self-hating and lashing out at people on the internet. Whereas Steve's character has been entirely about lies for nine years, and only gives one night of truth at the end. (And that, in turn, leaves the moral question about whether or not Steve's character was justified to do as he did.)

@@jakegodfrey4320 also he just flushed it straight after, a pointless escapade on his end

Disagree. Absolutely loved this series. Not a bad episode among them

​@@Paul1978 seconded!

@@soulfoodie1 Agreed. I mean 'Wise Owl' was stunning imo.

Totally disagree

​@@Paul1978 Disagree! Most of season 7 endings ruined an otherwise solid run of episodes

They have always written dark humour, have you not seen any of their other series?

were you run over aaron

Are you aware that this is a tv show? It’s just pretend. Nobody got actually hurt 😂

Right, but it's the irony. SHE didn't open the umbrella, she shouldn't have had that bad luck. But hey, more trauma for that chara! More exposure therapy needed!

Of course it is! Anything can be if its written and played properly. Amazing that you watched this preview and felt the need to comment about that, but couldn't care less about the scaphism episode.... so that is hilariously acceptable then? lol

Lets not forget Jeremy Dyson the fourth Gentleman!

@@soulfoodie1 yes, I don't forget him, he's just not in the public eye as much but he's still a genius but not sure what he's upto today? These guys have been a big part of my tv viewing, I remember my dad and sister laughing there heads off to League of G back in the day and I sat down and didn't get it straight away, wasn't long until all 3 of us were off to see them live at the Sheffield Crucible Theatre and I've been hooked ever since, my mum and brother eventually followed 😂👍🏻
