I'm in tears. Maybe I'm just emotional but can't believe how much the show means to me

And the ending... tidy!

Fabulous. Outnumbered on the other hand showed exactly how it shouldn't be done making G and S even better.

On the one hand I get the love but on the other neither Ruth Jones nor James Corden are a Russel T Davies.

Writer and show runner of Doctor Who. And writer of many other drama series.

I’ve watched the odd episode but still tuned in for the finale. It was great, funny, no one died, brilliant escapism- unlike Outnumbered who was switched off.

Lorrainedrops · 28/12/2024 02:46

I loved it. Micks speech was so touching 😢 Gwen with Dave coaches lol. The mention of corn on the cob and the looks exchanged between Nessa and Smithy (if you know you know)😜 So many great scenes. I'm sad it's over but glad they had their happy ever after... 🍾🥂tidy!

It went on longer than needed but the end was lovely.

The glorious bit when she borrows the batteries from the TV remote for 'some me time'..then puts them back saying she didn't need them and goes to rinse two fingers under the tap.

I’ve watched a few but don’t think I will ever bother to watch the whole lot. Seems a huge amount of women really enjoyed it though so that’s good

So what's the point in commenting than
I have never seen Game of thrones apart from bits and bat's of clips but I would never go on a thread and say how terrible it was as I have never seen it.

I don't think they are trying to be two very different styles of writing .

Fair enough. It just seems everyone is taking it so seriously as if it’s real life! It’s fiction. And whatever you all say, Nessa IS an unpleasant person. Glad you all enjoyed it and I will shut up!😂😂

Yes you’re missing something - several seasons of previous episodes will tell you what

I've read all the G&S threads on MN and it's so obvious some posters haven't watched it from day one, the serial killers surnames for example, one poster said it was a revelation.....really? It was known from series one about this.

Doris86 · 28/12/2024 10:33

I loved Nessa’s story about Hale and Pace. Always hilarious the random celebrities from the past she comes out as being involved with.

If you can’t be bothered to watch the whole lot then you’re not really qualified to comment on why people like Nessa.

It's a thread in telly addicts nobody thinks it's real life ,go on any thread in telly addicts and people will be discussing characters and plot lines,that doesn't mean they think these people are real and with Nessa you have to watch all of it to understand why people like her but as you are not going to do that I can't be bothered ti explain to you.

What makes you think Nessa is a real person?

Are you OK hun? Confused YOU are the only one who seems massively over-invested in someone who is not real.

WalterdelaMare · 28/12/2024 14:44

Nessa would be my type of mate. Loyal, no-nonsense, not remotely ‘girly’.

spiderlight · 28/12/2024 14:51

I wish they'd at least mentioned Deano. When Sonia was asking for people's real names in the car, Smithy could have said that his name wasn't actually Dean.

berightorbehappy · 28/12/2024 14:57

It was perfect ! Well done writing and acting gang …when Mick stood up in the church we all cheered 👏

No.
I've never watched a single episode of it, so I wasn't interested in watching the finale.
