Cracker - Itv Hub
15 Answers
Following the death of Robbie Coltrane, i decided i would re-watch the entire 3 seasons of Cracker. I began last night and have so far watched 5 of the 7 episodes which make up the first series.
The first 2 episodes - 'Mad Woman In The Attic' - introduced us to the walking car-crash of a man that is 'Fitz'. We really get to know him in the next 3 episodes - 'To Say I Love You' - and i believe that this is where any Cracker fans (myself included, if memory serves) were hooked.
Yes, it is a tad dated, but still better than a lot of what is served up to us today.
I know there are those who said they hadn't seen Cracker. I strongly advise you to give it a whirl.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.i have them all on dvd... i was a bit young to watch it when it originally aired but my dad bought me them as a gift when i was 18 i think...
i had actually started watching them again a few weeks ago before coltrane had died!! strange coincidence
it does have some weaker storylines (i think "mad woman in the attic" is not a great intro to be really honest) but when it's good it's up there with the best TV ever made...
i haven't yet gotten to the storyline about the rapist. I remember thinking it was very good when i was younger but i wonder if it might not be as good now... mostly because of the "who raped her" mystery... i think that might not have aged very well.

Untitled, i agree with you as regards the weak storyline in the opening 2 episodes but i do feel it was merely a vehicle in which to introduce us to the series's main players.
'To Say I Love You' and 'To Be A Somebody' are the two best storylines of the whole 3 series, imho.
I understand what it is you're saying about the rape mystery but the acting was so good i do believe the knowledge of who the rapist is won't diminish that particular episode.
