Nothing much happened so far,you should be able to pick it up from here.

It was a stand up comedian that was killed (he was doing jokes about Iraq)

Think the killer was in the army.

Pete thinks it was copper that killed him!!!

you never know until the end in these.

I loved Cracker first time round and I have to say I was a bit disappointed with this.

I think his wife has dumped him (who wouldn't) and we might be in for a few more.

Hopefully any future episodes will be a bit less obvious.

I don't remember cracker being a whodunit in that respect!!

I'm sure we always knew who'd dunnit and watched to see him unravel it, just like he did last night.

Now Prime Suspect is a different matter altogether, and it's on again SOON!

You're right, we were told who dunnit and then Cracker unravelled why - but this one, still good quality writing, but there wasn't really anything to unravel. Apart from the specifics we were told everything.

Title: Re: Cracker 9pm tonight
Post by: snoopy1239 on October 02, 2006, 09:28:16 AM
new series

crikey

Are the ol faces still in it?

Is it being repeated?

Is it weekly (ie, every sunday at 9pm?)

Robbie Coltrane is still in it. Misses just left him so I guess she won't be back a lot.

New coppers in it...didn't care for them much.

don't think it will be repeated (but you can probably download it at www.isohunt.com) and yep...every sunday.


you up early or just still up snoop?

I'm still resting my hopes on Bush being revealed as an alien just seconds before he signs the bill.

This seems unlikely.

The Party Executives seem much more likely to be the types to betray mankind in exchange for not being put in the big Lizard Larder.

I thought it was a one-off as well, I'm sure they advertised something else at 9pm next Sunday after it had finished.

I think it was a one off, but they may have been angling for a series commission as it left the possibility open at the end of this one that there could be one.

There was a 'behind the scenes' on ITV2 afterwards; they said it was a one-off.

The first two seasons of Cracker were unmissable TV; this was good. Good to see all of the original Fitz family actors back; but there always was a high turnover rate for the actors playing the police!
