Poor audi that's all I can say I was nearly in tears bout the car

 

[HolyCount]

Absolutely none the wiser.   :-/

It's words of one syllable time - would anybody care to do the honours?

Was there any significance in the fact that when somebody said "Oh God", Gene Hunt muttered "Don't call me that"?

Was there any significance in the fact that Jim Keating's lift was going down?

 :-/ :-/ :-/

Yes and Yes, I think.....

My take was that Gene was God's ambassador to the newly departed members of H.M Constabulary - - helping them cross over, so to speak. But he enjoyed the make believe world so much he was trying to hang on to them a little while longer --- especially Alex Drake.

Jim was the Devil's equivalent, trying to poach the souls for the Underworld.

In the end the present "team" passed on (the Pearly gates being a pub! ) and Alex popped her clogs in the "real world".

The guy with the i-phone was the next newly departed to pass through the "holding area".

As much as I enjoyed the programme, if, when I shift my mortal coil, I awake to see Gene's face I will not be best pleased ..... another crack at "life" doesn't appeal ..... where's me harp 

OMG -- just had a thought .... are WE all dead ex omega owners, brought to OOF to help us pass over    

TB is Gene Hunt !!!!!!!

P.S.  I hope that Audi was a mock up

Well the end didn't let me down! 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)

Very original conclusion, which can provide good debating material!

We certainly now know why it was titled Ashes to Ashes[/i]!

Rest in pieces

Did you notice the 'Mercedes Benz' handbook :-/ on his desk at the end....

Yeah, i can't see Gene in a Merc, not in the 80's

No, it had moved on, there was a reference to an 'I Phone' so not quite sure when....

His office looked same though, i reckon next was from 2009 or something but stayed 80's?

Sadly now its all been explained i doubt they will do a third spin off 

has it??.....maybe im just a thicko but i didnt get the ending at all............
whos dead?
 all of them?
 none of them?
is bollyknickers alive or not?
 what really happened to sam tyler?
 was gene the young copper with the 6620 number? where was jim and that elevator taking them?

 FIRE UP THE QUATTRO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Indeed!  There is a belief that suggests we first go to a plain of existence after death where we can redeem ourselves, or not, before taking the final journey to heaven or hell.

As I stated before, this last episode was particularly thought provoking! 8-) 8-) 8-)

'tis not beyond the realms of possibility that we are there already .... waiting ......

Thanks H C......so was it Gene that killed Sam as bolly was banging on about?

No -- Sam was a complicated case in that he was near death in the "real" world and therefore being helped to pass over by Gene. However, he actually recovered and returned to the "real" world ..... decided he didn't like it and threw himself off a roof. Therefore he died in reality and re-entered Gene's world (the waiting room for the afterlife). Once he had spent some time there ( off screen) he accepted his death and passed on to "heaven" (?) via the pearly pub.  So technically Gene didn't kill him, but helped him pass on (a result of which he mysteriously disappeared from Gene's world).

Clear as proverbial mud !!!!
