I was very satisfied with the ending. Spooky and magical, yes!

I loved it.

I thought it had something to do with Fiona and I wasn't totally wrong!

Gail was fab. I loved the blase way she was with her 'friends' and I liked how the other woman (can't remember her name, but great actress too) offered her a house in Cornwall.

NotADragonOfSoup · 08/03/2013 11:30

I liked the look on Gail's face when the Cornwall House friend said something about life being shitty - I think that's when she knew what to do with Malcolm's ashes.

MaggieMaggieMaggieMcGill · 08/03/2013 11:32

Nope, my perfect ending would have seen Everett safely out the way some how, Hattie, Fiona and Gail coming together as maiden, mother, crone before sealing Allan in an oak tree for evermore.
But that would have been a very very supernatural ending. He would have deserved it though, his actions caused harm to all three of them in one way or another.

Do you think Caitlin ousts Hattie and comes back?

valiumredhead · 08/03/2013 14:37

I really loved it - I was hooked and loved the whole magical theme. I love watching things in one go so suited me down to the ground!

StAlphonzospancakebreakfast · 08/03/2013 16:18

I agree, you have to believe in Witches for it to work. Love the idea that Fiona, Gail and Hatty should have come together at the end, that would have been much better, Hatty needed some female support definitely .. especially from Fiona if she was raped by Everett (I think thats what happened, although "I'm trying to be a better person now" doesn't really cover his complete personality change its true).
Seth put Hatty in the tree. And yes Seth is dead. Oh, I think that Everett had his dance gear in the black bag .. wasn't he going to dance classes with Hatty or something!?
The one thing that is bugging me is who was the girl at the station on the CCTV then if it wasn't Hatty or Caitlin .. that is what made me thing that the twins had swapped places (which I am also disappointed hadn't happened)
I really enjoyed it but didn't like the end, even though I like a bit of magical realism, it just didn't quite do it for me

StAlphonzospancakebreakfast · 08/03/2013 16:32

*Hattie not Hatty Hmm

NorthernLurker · 08/03/2013 17:03

'Justice' doesn't mean putting things back to the way they were. That's impossible.

The end result was that an innocent (of that crime anyway) man was going to be freed whilst two very guilty people were going to live in fear under a curse. Seems ok to me.

So what happens now? Which daughter have the parents of Caitlin/Hattie been left with? If Hattie is going to continually haunt the PO then does Caitlin stay as Hattie or has she got to spend the rest of her life dying her hair?

Pixel · 08/03/2013 18:02

And what happens when Caitlin gets older? It will be obvious she isn't a ghost and PO will stop being bothered. He might even bump her off too so he can carry on playing happy families.

guineapiglet · 08/03/2013 19:44

At the end of last night's episode, I didn't know whether to be pleased and relieved it was finished, or annoyed because so many questions were left unanswered - I'm glad I watched it but wouldn't watch it again if you get my drift. It made me restless all night, and then having thought about it all today and reading this thread, I realised that it really was up to us as the audience to think through and work out our own endings? What is justice? retribution etc.

Felt sad that Seth had to die, and what happened to Hattie's dad, now a murderer or not? No body found, and the justice dispatched undeserved, death of another innocent.

Did we ever find out what Linus' dad had done to Fiona? Was it to do with Linus' Mum? Found the Dad's sudden conversion to being a good dad a tad unbelievable, but maybe that was part of the 'magic' - the forest reminded me of the woods in Harry Potter - taking on a life of their own and being a character in their own right.

Still thought the best character in it was the menopausal mum - good for her, loved it when she served up the ashes in the dogs food, - eventually to go back to the earth - all very cyclical, her starting anew, reborn by the death of her vile husband....... all very deep!

Remain unconvinced by the behaviour of the two police officers ( Fiona and her drippy husband) - although maybe shouldn't be surprised.....

whiteandyellowiris · 08/03/2013 21:14

what a shit ending

armagh · 08/03/2013 21:30

Why did linus and caitlin not get together? Couldn't hear what they were saying. Dc interrupted my watching.

I agree that was a good moment when the only lady from the Rotary who remained offered Gail the house in Cornwall.

I think Gail came out of the whole thing the best she got rid of her pervy husband she seemed like a new woman,

armagh · 09/03/2013 09:09

It could become a series- there have been a lot of loose ends left.

armagh · 09/03/2013 09:13

Why did Malcolm not go to the police after he witnessed the murder?
Who is Sandra?

MaggieMaggieMaggieMcGill · 09/03/2013 09:26

Presumably because he then would have had to explain why he was in 'the woods.
I think Sandra was the rotary women who offers Gail a place to stay.

mrsjay · 09/03/2013 10:12

well Malcolm was a perv he would need to explain his 'hide' at the secret circle place, Sandra was the Roatary club friend

Isthisme · 09/03/2013 10:39

Agree with most of the comments here what a waste of 5 nights.

Regarding Everetts personality change though, I assumed when he placed a 'love charm' Hattie had given him at the the base of the memorial tree, he got rid of a curse she had put on him?

mrsjay · 09/03/2013 12:09

Everett didnt think he was cursed he was depressed we were seeing him from Linus's 16yr old bubble IYSWIM, I think Hattie got a lift home from the centre place because Everett went there for his therapy
