RIP
9 January 2004
Being just 18 I wasn't even born when The Incredible Hulk was being aired first time round...and living in England we get to see things a lot later that America.

The Incredible Hulk was one of the few 'adult' Tv shows that I would sit, watch and enjoy from around 4 years old.

Despite his size and rather odd colouring I found him rather charming with a vulnerability that made him rather cute...

Bill Bixby played Banner wonderfully...I had no idea he was dead until I read his bio...it's really quite sad

I will always associate him with The Hulk...I don't have a favourite episode as they were all brilliant...I cried when he died

I am glad that they didn't bring him back from the dead...Some say that the death of the Hulk bought about the death of Bixby...but I believe that maybe it was meant to be...that way the actor and character who he made truly real both went together...both finding the freedom that they had both deserved.

Warning: Spoilers
When I saw the preview I thought it looked interesting.

A story about a homeless drunk falling in love. How sweet. A typical Christmas drama. Starring Ken Stott probably best known for Messiah and The Vice and Kevin Whately famous for Morse's sidekick Lewis. I thought it would be an interesting piece of viewing.

The story itself is good, original, sweet, easy to follow and well acted.

But then...the twist. I won't give any spoilers but I just didn't understand the twist. The ending was very strange, a friend described it as 'almost sixth sense like'. It just seemed as though the last scene had made the last two hours all rather pointless.

Despite the very disappointing ending it was well acted and watching Ken Stott play a haplessly in love ex- alcoholic was highly amusing
