| | OFF THE TELLY: Reviews/2002/Auf Wiedersehen, Pet |
 | | Auf Wiedersehen, Pet scores big in this department, however, with the characters evoking a shared past (and let's face it, when old friends reunite that tends to be all they talk about) which we the viewers have actually witnessed too. |
 | | Although 'Pet echoed previous series in that it rolled along with sub-stories that were played out over a couple of episodes, there did seem to be a deficiency in dealing satisfactorily with the many big topics the series was saddled with. |
 | | This final episode suffered badly in that regard, with the introduction of a new character, DI Andy Hayley, whose presence resolved all three outstanding storylines (Barry's drugs charge, Grainger's attempts to blackmail the group and Moxey's involvement in a potential murder trial) in less than 50 minutes. |
