Ending is a significant flaw...
I was very intrigued by this show as soon as I heard about it during a documentary about the author. I mail-ordered the DVD and enjoyed it up until the end. Here's the problem I have with the ending: Davies doesn't put any imagination into portraying what a world without religion would be like. The events of the story are shown to be Earth changing, and we are told that everyone sensed the moment that God died, and so no one believes in God anymore and so mankind is supposed to take responsibility for himself. But the only glimpse we get of this future is a fairly banal conversation in a supermarket parking lot... Lame. Davies stresses throughout this philosophical thriller that the events are Earth-shaking, yet the aftermath which is shown is complete and utter status quo. What a miserable let-down! He should have put some imagination into this element of the show and at least given us some tiny tidbits of original thought about what such a future might be like, and why he argues for it with his drama. But nothing. Zip. Nada. Pfft.
