How did it end?



Damn it. I fell asleep just after the husband was released from prison. What happened, please?

I can tell you what you want to hear, but that don't make it true.

You just have to watch it again. It's worth it!

He went and bought some guns with the intention of going down to Oxford, where she was doing a reading of her book, and killing her. His son then rang Helen Baxendale's character and warned her of what he intended to do. HB's character phoned Suranne Jones's character, but she was already in the place she was doing her reading. He turned up, whipped out a gun or twelve and...well i won't bore you with every minor detail, but they basically have a ridiculously long shootout and they kill each other. We then end with HB's character sat in a country garden writing about it. Sorry i forgot the characters names, but that's roughly what happened. I enjoyed it, but the end was a bit silly. Hope that helps.

Oh yeah and one more thing..He thought it would be ok if he murdered her when he got out because you can't be tried for the same crime twice. That's now no longer true.

And a lawyer in the audience at the book reading in Oxford pointed out that it wouldn't even have been case before the double-jeopardy law was abolished because the alleged killing of his wife for which he was originally convicted and the subsequent real killing of his wife many years later would be regarded as separate crimes - presumably in just the same way as someone who is convicted of armed robbery or rape can be convicted of another subsequent crime against the same premises or the same person.
