Meggys Return (Ending spoilers)


Anyone else clock Meggy (Perry Benson) at the wedding in the end? Haven't had chance to double check, but pretty sure he appears in a few shots. Weird, since I thought the character supposedly died of a heart attack off screen according to Shane Meadows.

P.S

Milky, what a dick! His character was just awful, firstly unable to find it in his heart to forgive Combo (despite all the forgiveness he's received off others for his own actions) and secondly has Combo murdered which is not only disproportionate revenge, but could also have been called off last minute after the sit down between the two.

I noticed Meggy too.
I was confused because I read somewhere that he had died.

What happened to Combo made me cry. I actually felt sick watching him being dragged away.
He should of been forgiven, you was able to see he was a changed man and that he was sorry.

Was he killed though? We don't really know what happened.
They have defintely left it open for a next series, and I'm hoping that there will be a This Is England 92.

As he said himself, what Copmbo did was "unforgivable".
Milky had forgiven him though, but that was mainly because it was his FAMILY who had to see him in a coma, beaten almost to detah by a racist pig. They couldn't forgive Combo.
And killed him.
Combo is dead, it was horrible, and dsiturbing. Thats why we end with Milk looking destroyed.

They could have beat up Combo,
Broke his arms and his legs. Scarred his face to make their mark.
Terrified and Terrorised him - and even kept him running scared for a little while after.
But killing him is just F^cked up!

Combo made a mistake and his life was taken for it.
It's just horrible :(

Yep clocked both Meggy & Banjo. Defo were both there, in the party at the end. Meggy was clearly in the back ground when the happy couple were having their first dance and again in the next shot stood behind Shaun's new bird. Banjo was stood next to Trudy when Gadget took Harvey's hand to dance lol.

There also in the IMDB cast list for this episdoe.

Agree about Milky. Not to mention banging his best mates bird and then saying bugger all until she gave birth. I thought at the end of the 3rd episode he was just going to get his revenge by giving him good hiding. With the shot of him shadow boxing in his house, it looked like that's what he was preparing to do.

Funny thing about the guy who plays Milky. Andrew Shim is that he's had a few MMA Pro fights in real life and I thought we'd get to see his boxing skills in This is England & see him hammer Combo. But he didn't even have the balls to do the job himself, pussy.
