Although I still think they could easily get a third series out of the original cast I thought that was a superb episode - and it was good to see the characters pretty much all written out.
Most things were resolved to an extent, but everything kind of left open to interpretation - especially Sid and Cassie - and that's much better than an absolute answer IMO.
Also loved the final scene with Effy hinting at things to come, though I don't think anyone is really expecting them to pull this cast change off.

Yes thankfully it managed to contain an episode within its self being Chris' funeral, and then being able to intertwine everyones ending was genius. Whilst I wish we had a full answer to the outcome of Sid and Cassie, truthfully it could only ever be left open ended. Hilarious comedy with the car chase too.
Liked the inclusion of the look from Effy at the end, and fantastic music too,as expected with skins,both from the composers and bands such as MGMT to finish off the series.
I am looking forward to Series 3, but as I have previously written nothing will ever beat the original cast.

Agreed. I'm glad they're going to utilise Effy (presumably, with her friends) for the next series instead of bringing in a completely new cast of actors, which I don't think would be the right move (though of course there'll be a lot of new ones in series 3). I always felt the Effy/Pandora episode a few weeks back was some kinda 'pilot' (as it were) for the 'next generation' of the show, should those characters take the places of Tony, etc....
