Dead man weds

I set the video for the last episode and because they were running late (something to do with HRH getting married to Rod Hull) I missed the last ten mins. I saw up until the giant bird landed on the batte re-enactment - what happened then?

Lewis took a load of photos and the bird flew away. The story went national (as illustrated by a mock-up cover of The Independent). The final scene was the whole newspaper crew celebrating in the pub, when a phone call came through. The Tim Healy barman character said it was someone from a national newspaper wanting to talk to the journalist who broke the story and "someone's going up in the world". Cut to credits, and we never find out whether it was Lewis or Gordon who took the call.

Thanks jenstar. Looks like there is going to be another series, which isn't a bad thing.

RANT ALERT! ITV are unbelievable! For the first time in living memory an ITV comedy gets good reviews and so they decide not to bother with a second series. I'm assuming that the ratings weren't quite what they wanted. Many sitcoms take a series to build up an audience (Only Fools and Horses is a prime example) but ITV don't half panic and wash their hands of things far too early. Remember Men Behaving Badly? Let's hope Dave Spikey does what Simon Nye did and take his idea to Aunty Beeb.
