Hi Hari - when I said about the one-off specials I meant this new one and 'White Ghost', she's now not made it to either for whatever reason. It's fair enough, actors do have their reasons for not doing something, but it's just a shame given that for a while it seemed like she would be in it and apart from Fitz obviously, I do think she's the one character most people would like to have seen return as well. Not just because of her relationship with Fitz, but because she would have been the only remaining link to the old series as far as the police-side of things went too. So it's all new coppers in this new one now then, which will be interesting! I have no idea whether there will be anymore though...I don't mind the idea of occasional specials, not sure how i'd feel about a fully fledged series though. I don't think anything would ever top the genius of Series 1 or 2  The IMDB ties in with the articles that got posted that didn't mention her, and I had confirmation from the always helpful Jimmy McGovern a couple of days ago. I think going by his message as well, the new special won't be on till around September time in the UK. Which at the moment seems like ages away!!! |

:DWell, if Jimmy said she would be in the new series, then I think she will. She may not have a big role like she did last time, but I think it's safe to say she will have some kind of appearances. I don't see why the actress would object to return back to her role as Jane Penhaligon. |

Errr...
In the last one-off (White Ghost) she had no role, was mentioned thrice or so...
And as far as I know, McGovern stated she won't be in it. That's what Sarah said...
I hate to say it, but I'm afraid she won't be in it. Mark, Judith and Katie (allthough by another actress, weird enough) will be in it.

since the new episode is about "change" then it kind of makes sense to not have her in it. Things might get too sentimental that way, i.e. "do you remember Jimmy... Billborough... etc." which I hate. So maybe it'll be a good thing. Fitz wouldn't get back with her after 10 years anyway so it'd be a bit difficult to have them together again, or completely unrealistic.

Yeah, I don't think for a minute they would do the whole Fitz/Panhandle thing again for this special even if she were in it. Mainly because of the time element, and the fact they'd be going back over old ground. But I still think it would have been great if she was the DCI now, and I loved the idea of them seeing each other again after all these years. Jimmy McGovern obviously wrote her into this special originally though - would be interesting to know one day how much of a part she would have played!

Unrealistic scenario: P is a troll, or P stands for Panhandle and is Geraldine herself - just being cut out the editing, but not allowed to talk about it ;-)

P is not a troll, but one part of that sentance is true....

P1 quotes me.. previous page I stated I would run to Totalbet.com or so, as sure as we where then that Panhandle would be in the One-Off... and with that bet I would have one of those Fitz days...
P1 stated then that Panhandle wouldn't be in it. I kind of foolishly made up some scenarios, and P1 states in this post that he / she knows more, but is not allowed to talk about it.
Fact is that p1 knew more one this topic than we did months ago... and THAT makes me VERY curious. Come 'n P, what thing CAN you tell us?

Well done - you got it! I'm sorry I can't say more but I felt sorry for everyone who desperately wanted Panhandle in it.. and i knew she wasn't.... was trying to let you down gently. A friend of mine is in it. Don't be too gutted as I've been told its fantastic!

Having Jane back would make for a great storyboard, more so if she was in charge as a DCI.
I would certainly be in favour of this. I can see it working now from the offset, with many story lines out there to be written for both of them.
In all Cracker returning with new seasonal episodes would be fantastic news.
If the shows producer is reading. Please do not mess about again, like you did with Nine-Eleven. Made the going in and out of the adverts. Sounds and looks very childish and pathethetic. Leave that sort of thing to the teen producers that are around right now. Maybe they will learn someday how to do it right also.
Cracker is the best tv programme ever seen on tv. Very compulsive viewing, great story lines with superb acting all round.

i really think geraldine should reprise her role as penhaligon, her story with fitz was never finished. there needs to be some closure between those two. her character really needs to be in the show.
i know geraldine stars in the harry potter films, does anyone know if she's going to be in the latest one, the 6th one thats suppose to come out later this year?
