It DOES have a proper ending!
Trust me!
75minutes of high-tension, no breaks, no pausing to go to the loo and make a cuppa first, make sure you ‘go’ before it starts!
How do you seem to find these things out before anyone else, Ruth?
Who do you know?
Aha!
Listen read and learn… (taps finger against nose and winks)
Before you embark on the specially extended 75-minute finale of the most talked-about British drama in years, make sure you have adequate provisions, because you won’t want to pause it to make a sandwich or to mix another gin and tonic.
And let’s not have any live tweeting, because absolute concentration is required.
This is a big, bold, bonkers, outrageous, even preposterous finish to a show that’s enthralled the nation, with a smart pay-off for the millons of Bodyguard devotees.
Writer Jed Mecurio makes sure there are no questions left hanging in the air as the focus pulls firmly on to bruised, battered protection officer David Budd.
There’s an almighy, breathless, trademark-Mecurio sequence of extraordinary tension that takes up almost the entire episode as David (Richard Madden) gets to the heart of the conspiracy that led directly to the murder of his boss.
Can’t wait
Perhaps you should learn to read what people actually post rather than what you imagine they meant.
You accused me of comparing things. I didn’t.
You accused me of arguing a point. I didn’t.
Lies won’t get you brownie points.
Besoeker, you have the reputation of arguing the toss with most people on here anyway. Cheer up buddy, it’s only television!
If you argue the toss, does that make you a toss pot? :-D:-D
I guess it does, Ruthio.
Anyway, let’s not get sidetracked. This programme deserves better than a thread going off topic.
Bodyguard is great but for me, The Night Manager that was also on BBC1, was much better.
Is anyone getting excited for the last episode?
Totally.
I’m at work tonight so I’m going to have to make sure I hear no news bulletins or look at this thread until after tomorrow afternoon when I can watch it.
In fact, thinking about it I’m going to watch it first thing in the morning before I go to bed…unless I fall asleep in the chair!
Oh No, Floydy, that’s a bit sick, you having to work on one of the biggest nights this year for a brilliant television series.
Can’t be helped, Art.
I’ve never been so hooked on a TV programme before.
Never mind. If you let me have your email address I’ll send you details as the programme progresses.

Who thought his car was going to blow up at the very end?
Oh dear. I must have missed that!
The car drove off down the street and just for a moment I was thinking, it’s gonna blow, it’s gonna blow but of course it didn’t.
No nicely set up for another series
Excellent last episode, I had to hide my eyes and cover my ears at one point.
When it got really tense, l had to turn off the sound and ‘busy’ myself and take peeps out the corner of my eye. They stretched that bit out a bit, didn’t they?!!
I loved the bomb disposal expert, Daniel Chung, with his kind eyes and disposition. l know he was only an actor but it brought home how close a bomb disposal expert can be to death. Such brave people.
I thought when David Budd was sent into the other room for counselling that Julia Montague would be in there!
In similar series/films, l always wonder if the car will blow up but l didn’t on this occasion and maybe that’s because there were children in the car! I mean… they wouldn’t blow the children up, would they? Or am l just naive?
