moomin, I've left a message for you on the bereavement thread. It's a bit of a rant. I hope you don't mind.

I didn't realise Adam went to live with his dad. I was frustrated at the end wondering where he went, but of course, that makes sense.

Moomin, that is so touching. I've had those conversations too, and it does make you feel even lonlier when you can't hear them.

I thought it was brilliant. really sad, especially the speechs at the funeral and I thought Karen was particularly good.
Can't believe it's over for good.

I agree with bettys - some lovely touches. At first I didn't like Rachel popping up because I thought it defeated the idea of Adam being on his own, but then I realised that he was only wishing those conversations. Realised at the point when Matthew began crawling and Rachel said "yes, I would have loved to have seen that". Reminded me that when I was younger I tried to have conversations like that with my mum who died. Used to get frustrated when I couldn't hear her answer me .

Also broke my heart at the end when Rachel got into the taxi and the old music came up to signal the end of it all. Hope they don't do any more - it's right that it ended like this, even though it was very sad. Can hardly bring myself to watch the repeats, because it's like we know what's going to happen to them now!
(Note to self: try to get a life)

Thought the episode had some really nice touches. Loved the way Rachel hopped into the taxi at the end with her suitcase, meaning they weren't leaving her behind. Pleased also that Karen & David DIDN'T get back together; they would have driven each other mad as well as it being too corny for words. Didn't see the Jenny/Pete reunion coming, but agree it was right for it not to work with Jo.
I also turned over to ITV2 (had to tape it as vv late) and couldn't stop laughing at Adam's hair.

Zoe agree with your analysis - except that I think Karen can manage without David, he'll probably end up making more mistakes but felt it was the right ending for her. love the idea of her & Ramona in a convertible across Spain

I thought that they did it very well indeed - both Adam and Karen played really good bereaved person roles - Karen in the supermarket was a brilliant piece of writing and acting. James Nesbitt deserves an award for his performance.

I felt that he did go to his Dad's I think his Dad was in Ireland as hadn't they said that he was on a stop off from Dublin to Frankfurt last week, which Adam poo-poo'd as unnecessary?? It is significant that Adam left, because Cold Feet is Adam and Rachel's story and without them, the group wouldn't really survive; Jenny and Pete would not have known Karen and David without them.

I really did think that it would be Karen and not Robin who met David for lunch, but realised that that would have been a bit cheesey. Nice touch with Pete and Jenny, Pete and Jo were never really believable.

Isn't Port Merrion beautiful - I must visit!

I was in tears within about 30 seconds of the start, when they showed clips from last week. DH laughed at me and I told him to F* off! Then at the funeral and when Karon was in the supermarket.....just the whole way through, mind you I am PG so it's probably hormones doing that aswell.
I'm not sure if we found out where Adams dad lived. I remember him talking about New York last week, but did he still live there? I think Adam did go and live with his dad.
I'm so sad that it all over, although DH did say that alot can be followed on from last nights episode, not so sure myself.
Oh and as for David........PIG! HE HAS TO BE WITH KARON. IT ALL WRONG OTHERWISE!!!!!
Oh well, might just wait until the 24 and but the videe to relive it all.

Darn, I wish we still had digital! Adam with that rose in his bum, would love to see the first episode again!

Thought tonight's episode was great, a good mix between crying a laughing although did not do either to extreme tonight. Can anyone answer a question for me? I understood Adam and Matthew went to live with Adam's Dad at the end but DH disputed this, can anyone confirm if this is what happened and if so remind me where Adam's Dad lives? If he did go to stay with his Dad and assuming his Dad lived far away (DH and I couldn't decide between Ireland and America somewhere) I thought this was sad as it was breaking up the group although perhaps that was the whole point, they had reached the end of the road. Glad to see Jenny and Pete sort of back together although it seemed a shame that David and Karen didn't get back with each other although perhaps this may have been a bit too corny and it was a nice twist as I think everyone expected that it would be David and Karen. Very sad that it has finished though!

It was so sad! I thought it was a great last episode. I've just dragged myself away from ITV2 where they're showing the first episode from series one.

I'm a complete wreck already. It is so upsetting. Why do we put ourselves through this?!!

No, they didn't sleep together. She developed a bit of a crush on him and kissed him and it ended there because he was so freaked out, if I remember rightly.

Let's hope they start repeating them all from the beginning now it's over!

Didn't Adam have a fling with Jen - can't remember that well - if so is it his baby?

It definatley Jenny, pete's ex as I saw a clip on TV last night.
Did anyone else watch the 'Final call' thingy about cold feet last night? They showed a little bit of the last episode with Rachels funeral and my eyes filled with tears at only 30 second of it.
My god I going to get through a whole box of tissues on sunday.

Well, I reckon its Adam's dad in drag. Well, it would brighten things up a bit. Hey, maybe I could write the script.

Oh Moomin, how awful. It must have been terrible for you to watch it.

Watching that was a bit of a revelation for me. I refused to look at DH as I didn't want him to see me cry. So I concentrated on eating an apple all the way through, turned to DH at the end with my eyes dry but choked, only to see him crying his eyes OUT. He was upset for ages.
It was very realistic. Jimmy Nesbit was awesome.

What's the matter with Alex - why did that patient die tonight or was it purely an accident? Keating was having a bit of a go about Alex having the shakes?

Moomin · 11/03/2003 21:22

No I don't think it was Lisa's mum. I remembered as I was watching tonight; wasn't she the mum of the girl who worked on the children's ward, the one who was date-raped by Liam, who later fell off the balcony?! Makes you realise just what a dirty old dog Mubbs is! and also what an accident-prone lot they all are. If they're not tending to patients, they're in the next bed themselves!

Lisa (?) the midwife's mother got off with Mubbs at one point - is that who you mean?

Yes, wasn't "Natalie" someone's mum in Holby City? She definitely copped off with Mubbs though. Glad Alex is back. Reminds me of dh when he has his scrubs on (dh also works in operating theatres) Grrrrr........

I don't watch Corrie so I'd never realised there was all that 'crossover' too. LOL.

tech, I'm glad to see that you have a life that includes watching TV and not just sorting out Mumsnet IT problems for us!

It was only last night that I suddenly realised that CF is Adam and Rachel's story - hence why one of them had to die. Only been watching it for five series, doh...

Ah well, they are doing Holby City/Casualty plot crossovers in a desperate plea to hook us in. Basically, John (the blond one who used to be in Corrie and in Holby City was going out with Ben till Ben found out he was married when his wife had a baby in the unit) has come back and said he had left his wife and wanted to get back with Ben. They went to a club together and slept together in last week's Holby City. Then in Saturday's Casualty he showed up when Ben was taking Tony out for a guilt-induced dinner and did tell all. So then Tony walked out and Ben followed him but they had fisticuffs which ended in Tony falling off the sea wall into the water and hitting a yacht on the way down. Cue Internal injuries, massive bleeding, he's in VF, fight for life, etc. It all continues on tomorrow's Holby City.

I was thinking Tony and this John could go back to Coronation Street where there would be uproar as people discovered that not only was Natalie's son back from the dead, but was gay and with Sally's ex-fiance who left her the day before the wedding after he found out that she slept with Kevin again you may recall. In fact thinking about it, didn't Natalie turn up in Holby City and date Mubbs briefly. Did she not notice her dead son from Corrie was working as a security guard. I wonder do I really need to get a life?
