    Pat's appearance was the highlight of Peggy's final episode for me, and I thought Ross Kemp was quite strong - especially considering he doesn't act much any more. I'm glad it was nicely downplayed for the most part and there were no histrionics.

    It was "you bitch, you cow" that started my tears off - pure nostalgia for me. I thought the stopping of the clock at the end was a moving touch.

    I did hope Peggy wouldn't commit suicide though, and I thought Sharon and Grant's chemistry felt manufactured and slightly cringeworthy. And what was the point of the toilet storyline in that episode?

    I enjoyed it overall even though it was too sentimental for my taste in parts.

    I wasn't particularly moved by Peggy's suicide, felt Pat's death was sadder and pulled at the strings more for me

    I did enjoy the vision of Pat again, good on Pam for returning considering Barbara didn't for her exit

    Grant returned to see his dying mother for a few hours with no Sam, baby Ricky or Courtney

    Sharon and Grant still have chemistry

    I thought the best part of the episode was after the end credits rolled , and when the Bobby and Jane Beale trailer was shown ,worth waiting for. Having said that still don't think this will conclude the storyline. D.T.C. said upon the announcement of his retirement he intended to leave certain storylines open for the new exec producer to deal with. Max not due back supposedly until Sept ?

    Actually, when I got to this bit I remembered the time they got drunk in the Ice cream van.. One of the best scenes with Peggy and Pat

    Always a good plan when you're completely at a sticky bit. Of course he might have left half a dozen story line options for the next one to look through. Or not.

    How can the truth come out without several other people going to prison? Oh it's EE land community service for 3 hours and don't do it again.

    Jane confesses and swears nobody else knew? That might not be realistic in real life but in soap land...
