TV show description:
This British romantic drama was created by Sally Wainwright who was personally inspired by the real life second marriage of her mother.
The TV series follows Alan Buttershaw (Derek Jacobi) and Celia Dawson (Anne Reid), two childhood sweethearts who are now in their seventies and have been out of touch for 60 years. Persuaded to join Facebook by their grandchildren, the two reconnect online.
Alan, who has been in love with Celia since he was 16 years old, needs no prodding to reconnect. Recently widowed Celia had been in an unhappy marriage to a man she despised and is eager to see Alan again as well.
Celia’s daughter Caroline (Sarah Lancashire) is surprised by the revelation, though distracted by her own romantic problems — involving her adulterous husband (Tony Gardner) and her own affair with Kate (Nina Sosanya), a female colleague. Caroline and Alan’s daughter Gillian (Nicola Walker) clash during their first meeting.

What do you think? Do you like the Last Tango in Halifax TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
I adore Sarah Lancashire as Caroline. The storyline is relevant, the cast of characters relatable to anyone in a modern family. I wish it would go on forever. It is my favorite show, I will be anxiously awaiting season 4 here in Roxbury, Connecticut USA!!

Love the show….please bring it back. Love PBS sitcoms also
Please bring back Last Tango for another season. British sitcoms are my very favorite programs to watch on TV. I am elderly and don’t get out much, so TV is my only entertainment.

Love this show. I was just disappointed that I missed season 3. So will have to wait for reruns on it.
Hope it gets renewed. Loved it from the first episode.
This is a wonderful show. It kept me interested from day 1. The characters seem to be old friends of mine. Hope this show goes on at least for a few more seasons.
