Today, your diary entry will read - "Took a prozzie hostage, and then got shot by three armed bastards!"

Over the last couple of days I've been re-watching the first series of Ashes to Ashes, not sure why really I just suddenly had the urge see it again, I still thinks it's a little weak for the first couple of episodes while Keeley Hawes finds her way as the series lead but as usual it's Gene Hunt that makes the series worth watching, some of his dialog in Life on Mars ( the proper original UK version ) and Ashes to Ashes is just hilarious, it's hard to believe we won't be seeing anymore of the Gene Genie.
