I think Sam will wake up in the ITU and eventually go to find Cartwright, Hunt and the others, as they are now.

There'll be a lovely scene with Cartwright experiencing Deja Vu when she meets him.

I need to get out more, don't I?

Dh said last night it is the first tv series in AGES (maybe even ever) that has given him goosebumps at some point every week. last night's was the look on Morgan's face as the lift doors closed.

For me, of course, it was the 'oh yes' [Moomin loosens 18-hour girdle again, waiting for Gene to come back from the club. Vesta curry is on the menu with Moomin for dessert]

Am loving the Oz references. Was just looking at the Bowie lyrics - is Sam's life in 1973 a tv series?

there'll be a life on mars forum in the Cult section of digital spy (digitalspy.co.uk)

Just found a mention of the tralier on OG its more interesting than I thought

Found this on OG too!

How about having the final episode finish with Gene being run over and waking up in 1983?

"My name is Gene Hunt. Some pillock ran me over and I woke in in 1983. Have I gone potty, turned into a vegetable, or done a Doctor 'Oo? Whatever happened, this place is full of bloody weirdos, but at least the pubs still serve beer. Cheers!"

MrsWho · 04/04/2007 21:30

And I think 'we' have been referenced on OG

So who was this!

Just been on a mums forum where they're all hot under the collar about Gene Hunt gleefully admitting to being a dirty swine, pmsl.

foxinsocks · 04/04/2007 21:32

what is OG?

DeviousDaffodil · 04/04/2007 21:32

Ooh how exciting!!!!

MrsWho · 04/04/2007 21:32

And a interesting twist in the Dorothy theory

DeviousDaffodil · 04/04/2007 21:33

Go on....

MrsWho · 04/04/2007 21:33

MrsWho, you OG addict, you, lol. If you're looking for a LoM forum, this should fit the bill.

LucyJu · 05/04/2007 09:04

Loved the forum - could spend all day there!
Still, a bit peed off to see that my Wizard of Oz idea is already "out there" - I thought I was being really clever. Oh well...

DeviousDaffodil · 05/04/2007 09:13

What about this theory - not mine.
Life on Mars is a spin off of Dr Who, an anagram of 'Alien Life Forms'.Sam tyler = an anangram of Masterly ( the master is Dr Whos arch enemy).
Sam Tyler is a relative of Rose tyler?
Too bizaree to contmeplate for me!

motherinferior · 05/04/2007 10:27

Ahem, could we have 'mums' forum' changed to 'rampant middle-aged slappers' forum?

WelshBoris · 05/04/2007 10:32

I'm 25 MI,hardly middle aged

WelshBoris · 05/04/2007 10:33

But, yes, I am rampant

florenceuk · 05/04/2007 10:34

this is on the BBC site:

CID is chasing a notorious cop killer and Gene is determined to beat Morgan to the arrest. But all Sam has to do, Morgan promises, is one more job and he can ?come home?. Sam?s presumptions about his past, future and his very soul unravel in a heart-stopping climax. !!!!

DeviousDaffodil · 05/04/2007 10:41

I cannot bear it!!

MrsWho · 05/04/2007 14:21

I have also read Sam Tyler is a Time agent (Dr theme again)

MrsWho · 05/04/2007 14:22

Thanks for the forum BTW, spent ages last night on the digital spy one too

Fubsychicksnbunnies · 05/04/2007 14:28

There's a thick fug of hrmones hanging over this thread at the moment, you can probably see it from Outpost Gallifrey

Do you think.... Frank Morgan is sam "grown up"/from the future?

DeviousDaffodil · 05/04/2007 14:33

Thats what I thought Fusby as they were on the same wavelength.
talking about PR and taping interviews.

Anchovy · 05/04/2007 16:01

I REALLY like the Gene being run over and waking up either in the 1980's or in 2007 theory. Cleverly opens way for new series starring Gene but without John Simm.

Am gobsmacked by those who think John Simm is attractive - he looks just like Ian Beale from EastEnders.

Philip Glenister as Gene Hunt on the other hand...

drosophila · 05/04/2007 16:17

I missed the very first episode.

Can anyone fill me in?

JackieNo · 05/04/2007 16:33
