Car Share With Peter Kay

[Smowball]

Just watched it. Please don't tell me that really was the last ever episode?? I just love it!

Why is the rear window smeared/frosted? So the drivers in the cars behind are not included in the filming?

[Mamyalynne]

Producer Gill Isles responded on Twitter to revealed the real reason, explaining: “For those asking, the rear windscreen is always dirty for a boring continuity reasons.”

And this makes complete sense. Just imagine how many other fellow motorists are on the road behind John’s car while filming the BBC One hit comedy show? Blurring out the back window would solve this problem.

[goodgoalie]

Makes sense, I suppose, as there are no doubt many takes and we'd keep seeing different cars behind them. Still, distracting, though

[Mamyalynne]

I'm usually concentrating fully on them and the dialogue/music - but as you say it makes sense if there are retakes for instance.

On Radio 2 news this afternoon, Peter Kay announced that there will not be another series of Car Share.

Could've swore I posted something, never mind. I loved this series, I watched it all in one go when it was put up on the IPlayer. The last episode was bittersweet.

[Smowball]

I wanted them to get together! Since the last part was a dream scene did she really say she loved him or not??

[Mamyalynne]

Yes I believe she did and that's when he texted the Radio request in , the dream sequence began as the record played.

Peter Kay has said there will be no more Care Share, and no Christmas or charity specials.

Well done him - for knowing that the way to create classic comedy is to know when to stop, and leave a superlative body of work.

The shining example is Fawlty Towers - twelve perfect gems, no fall-off in quality - just enshrined genius.

Peter Kay is a fantastic character actor - check out 'That Peter Kay Thing' to see how versatile he is.

[grumpy01]

Exactly Andy-Hughes.As Ronnie Barker said always leave them wanting more.

[melv16]

I'd also check out Phoenix Nights, which was a work of genius.

[Islay]

Unfortunately he has said there will be no more!!

I loved it the Smurf and the monkey episodes were my fav this time round and the dogging episode in the first series was also my fav.

[Smowball]

I never saw any of the first series - I'll have to find them online. Yes I guess he's right to go out whilst it's still brilliant, still a shame though.....

[Lie-in King]

It was splendid, a true comedy gem :-))

[MargoTester]

I've enjoyed every minute of it, but I would have loved a 'happy' ending. Great music.

[Cloverjo]

I'm a bit late catching up with the final episode. I've just watched it. I cried. Why couldn't we have had a happy ending as in An Officer and a Gentleman? So good though.

I've got my Phoenix Nights DVDs to enjoy. Looking forward to watching them

I didn't realise he'd texted the radio station to request Kayleigh. If only she'd hung around a bit longer...
