Hi ,
My name is Paul and I am a relative newcomer to the series of Cracker. I was still at school when the series was originally shown from 1993 -1995 , but vividly remember being frightened terribly as a 12 year old in 1993 by the scene in TO SAY I LOVE YOU where Cormack the loan shark was clubbed to death. It haunted me for years , but I watched it last week and the funny thing is it is actually quite tame really and it did not have the same effect as it did 12 years ago. As I was saying , as I was too young to enjoy the show back then I have started watching the series in its entireity on ITV 3 and so far I am loving it. It is also cheaper than buying the box set. Although this website is excellent and very professional I am trying not to read to much as it may spoil stories I am yet to see. I knew cracker was a very acclaimed series but had no idea it had such a big following.I am currently looking forward to the last part of TO SAY I LOVE YOU next week.
I was wondering what all the cracker fans think of SPOOKS ? . Its one of my favourite shows and I miss it now it is not on. Like cracker , it contains a fair bit if violence and has the same gritty feel to it in certain episodes , and of course Lorcan Cranitch appears in the last episode of the first series and the first of the second as the IRA terrorist. I would love to hear your views on this other great series.
