But for anyone who did enjoy it, is missing it and/or can't wait for the next installment, may I point you in the direction of ITV3 which is currently showing Dempsey and Makepeace.
Dempsey and Makepeace is just like Ashes to Ashes, except better. Like Ashes to Ashes, it features:
- a mismatched pairing comprising:
- a posh woman
- a sexist man with outmoded views, but who is still rather attractive
- constant will they/won't they sexual tension
- car chases
- 1980s fashion
- London
- inneundos
- witty one-liners
The main difference is that rather than being a figment of someone's imagination, Dempsey is just on secondment from America. So there is thankfully no hallucinations or evil clown figures. Just crime capers and the hint of a possible romance.
Today's episode involved the robbery of a Bank of England van containing half a million pounds in used notes. The criminal gang wore gorilla masks which seemed particularly apt today as it was announced that Charlton Heston had died.
