The Fall.

[Bbbananas]

Great series. Gillian Anderson fair smoulders. Jamie Dorman is irresistibly evil.
But.... the blackout ending?? Unfair.

I smell a third series brewing...

[Ken4155]

Why unfair? And a 3rd series is a distinct possibility but would be a trifle far-fetched should he somehow escape the justice that awaits him. So, if there is to be another series, i think it would have to be without Mr Dorman.

[shaneystar2]

I don't think there will be a third series .Pretty obvious he's a goner .
I was on the edge of my seat though .Brilliant .

[jennyjoan]

You shouldn't watch it at all.

[EcclesCake]

How come JJ?

[jennyjoan]

Cos I just know how it all ended and I am not going to tell you.

[Bbbananas]

The blackout was supposed to signify 'The End' for Spector I presume. But who knows for sure with this series.
Ok Ken, unfair was probably the wrong word.

I thought it was great though. The role of Stella should definitely be reprised. She is amazing. I saw her a few months ago live in A Streetcare Named Desire. She is fantastic at the smouldering bit. She smoulders with a capital S.

I thought it ended flat, not complete. I felt let down somehow and actually wondered if I'd missed some of it. It was a brilliant series and I sat really spellbound tonight, but the end came too soon. If there is another series I wonder what it would be based on.
Yes, let down is my feeling.

[douglas9401]

Our anti-hero returns, fully rehabilitated and now a profiler set to catch his infatuated ex partner in crime who's on a spree collection gentleman's vegetables to decorate her standard lamp shades.
Stella is a swimming instructor at a council pool with a penchant for heavy petting.
The assistant chief constable now works for G4S as a van driver.

[Bbbananas]

Douglas - that's the second time tonight you have caused me to ' lol '

[EcclesCake]

Errr.....thank you for clarifying.....

[jennyjoan]

are you bacck for bbananas - gret tto hear - stinking keyboard.

[Bbbananas]

Sort of JJ.
But, my bed calls me right now.
I shall dream of ties getting lost in vaginas (it's a long story - see the 13 toiletries every night thread) and Jamie Dorman. Mmmmm.

[lynbrown]

We should have been told if her toyboy survives. Ending too abrupt.

[EcclesCake]

You can proof read before submitting JJ.....

According to this DS link, there may be a third season,but Jamie Dornan may not be involved http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/news/a608905/gillian-anderson-on-the-fall-i-think-therell-be-a-third-series.html#~oYQssbn5e5eXnZ

[Ken4155]

In these types of drama, i sometimes prefer an ambiguous ending. It gives food for thought instead of immediately thinking, "Well, that's that, then" and making a brew. There is no need to always cross all the t's and dot all the i's.

I suppose had it ended with an helicopter shot of the woodland scene, as the credits rolled, some of you would have been more accepting.

And douglas9403's comment at 2303 may have been said in jest, but you wouldn't put it past the powers that be to have Jamie Dorman's character live and go on to be a profiler - maybe even in an Hannibalesque way from a secure prison. Bet they're writing such a script even as we ponder.

[Sammy48]

I wonder whether Spectre dies and the young detective survives and becomes the serial killer.

When Gillian Anderson was on This Morning a while back she did say there would be a 3rd series and the storyline could possible go 12 more series.

[EcclesCake]

I haven't watched any of it yet I am looking forward to a Fall marathon over New Year.

[lidlicker]

Can't believe she ran immediately to Spector and not the gorgeous policeman she slept with.

[aelmpvw]

///Can't believe she ran immediately to Spector and not the gorgeous policeman she slept with.///
probably because he was the only main character that she hadn't slept with
