Well as the pub is in Bermondsey I don't think I will be going unless I actually have Gene Hunt there to protect me !

I have just watched it again with Mr TL and he noticed that when Jimbo was taking Shaz, Chris, and Ray to the lifts, Jimbo had to enter a key code on the door to get through. Well his key code was 666, if you watch him put the numbers in. Mr TL has that sort of key pad at work.

Also I am kind of thinking now that Gene didn't get to save Viv's soul which is why he was so upset and Jim got to him and took him to hell. Also at the end of episode 6 (I think) when those two Manchester detectives came up and Gene whispered something in his ear when he was on the floor, shot, I assume Gene told him he was already dead and was going to hell.

As to why Gene is staying in purgatory, my theory is that he gets to be who he always wanted to be i.e. Garry Cooper in High Noon. He's not the skinny little kid that no one cares for. If he goes to heaven then maybe he will have to revert to the skinny kid again.

I assume it was God who put the bottle of whiskey and the car booklet on Gene's desk when he got back as a sort of thank you for saving four souls.
