It would be reassuring to imagine that Davies will find a way to resolve the familiar horror of this opening with something approaching optimism, and also that this optimism will be founded on something more stable than passing jokes.

Davies has not lost the knack for creating fleshy drama with a beating heart that thinks big urgent thoughts.

Aptly, for a series that compresses 15 years into six hours, the episode seems to pass in the blink of an eye, thanks to Davies's trademark humour, compassion and the kinetic energy with which he infuses every project in which he is involved.

Occasionally the script becomes a little too elegiac, a little too didactic, but the strong ensemble carries a naturalistic tone even through these more portentous moments.
