5.0 out of 5 stars Final series, probably the best., 17 Dec 2006
By M. J. Collins "mjc121" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Diana and Tom are back for the final series showing that when you hit retirement you don't have to become the steriotypical 'little old dear'.

Diana is still waging the endless battle against the idiot Bains who is still trying to have her evicted as well as attacking the gardner and driving the mobile library person up the wall (just two of her hobies) Tom is frustraiting his revolting daughter-in-law simply by still being alive.

The one down side of this series is that Michael Bilton who played Basil Makepeace died during the filming of series 4. His 'replacement' (Jane's Grandfather, Jamie) is not as good and the series did lose one of it's best caracters.

4.0 out of 5 stars Loose Ends Tied Up, 12 Jul 2009
This series was always tinged with a little sadness knowing that this would be the last time we entered into the twin worlds of Diane Trent and Tom Ballard.

However one is left with a feeling of contentment and reassurance that all is well that ends well, even if its not quite how you would expect it to end. Will Jane convince Harvey "the Idiot" Baines (Daniel Hill) that she is the one for him ? Will Diane's Cynicism give way enough to allow her to tolerate the advances of Tom and his latest adventures with the stars to consent to spending the rest of her natural with him ?

Whilst not as laugh out loud as series one to four , theres enough deep affection, underlying scheming and satisfying irony to raise the level of mirth way beyond a knowing chuckle. Buy this.
