The Last Post was such a great show and will be missed. I wish some network would pick up this show for a second season. Too many questions left in limbo with no conclusion.
I agree. I know I’m a bit late in watching it but after “bingeing” all 6 episodes in 2 days, I can say that I really enjoyed the show. You are right, too many questions left in limbo. Just a couple of episodes would tidy it up. Loved the acting and the writing. It’s odd for today that people actually questioned authority! Perfect depiction of the changes happening in the 1960’s.
