After only one season of 13 episodes, the X-Files (1993 - 2018) spin-off The Lone Gunmen (2001) series finale aired on May 11, 2001. The episode had been written simply as a season finale, so the hanging plotlines were concluded in the X-Files episode "Jump the Shark" (2002). The episode had a surprise cameo by David Duchovny as Fox Mulder and brought over popular X-Files character Morris Fletcher (Michael McKean). ("All About Yves", The Lone Gunmen, TV Event)

Favourite CID Era

S4-6 also includes Don't Like Monday (Tosh's family at the bank) and Ted and Roxanne's first appearance together as officer/snout

Series 7-9 inc Viv's death, Dashers guesting after leaving, Frank disappearing without warning for a mystery job and Harry Haines arriving. Danny Pearce, Jo Morgan and Alan Woods also arrive. Jo is promoted to DS after a few eps. Jack is demoted to DCI and returns as a regular rather than guesting as part of AMIP.

Series 10-13 includes Rod being rather chauvinistic to poor Suzi who becomes CID in this series. Jo returns for a guest period and is about to move back permanently before.. ahem. The Target trilogy are a particular work of art in series 11. Don arrives in series 11 when Deakin is promoted to DI after Sally goes. John Boulton arrives not long after too and finally in series 12 Geoff and Liz arrive and Alan goes and Tom Proctor brings up the rear in S13. There is a lot of Alistair and Suzi fun however as she gently teases him throughout.

Series 14-16 brings Duncan and Kerry Holmes with Tosh leaving through sad real-life happenings and Alistair transferring as does Suzi. Series 15 brings Danny Glaze and Claire Stanton as an undercover CIB agent trying to catch Don. She doesn't expect to fall in love with another CID member, however. Unfortunately, we do lose Liz in 15 but she does pop back a few times. Series 16 is a BIG CID-focused series. Rod jumps before he's pushed and the truth about Don comes out after he and John have a fight. We lose John, Don, Kerry, Claire, Geoff, Deakin, Tom, and Tom. We gain Paul Riley, Kate Spears, Vik Singh, Alex Cullen, and Debbie McAllister. A somewhat unfair exchange. Saving the best until last however for series 16 as Mickey also arrives and is at his cheeky scamp best.

Series 17-18 Near the end of series 16 we got a whole new bunch of CID after a mass exodus due to Don being revealed as a dodgy officer. To give them a chance to bed in properly, there were no cast changes to CID in series 17. The new lot featured heavily, Mickey went undercover as a rentboy for a bit and then as a football hooligan. Debbie's snout was her lover and there was quite hoo hah about him, There's a couple of guest appearances from Liz, one of which is a multi-parter that terrifies Kate Spears, Claire follows Don over to Australia to tr catch him and bring him to justice. In series 18 we lose Vik, Paul, Kate and Alex Cullen but gain Eva, Ken Drummond, Phil Hunter, Sam Nixon and Brandon. Series 18 is also the beginning of the numbered episodes and Paul Marquess...

Series 19-21: we gain Juliet for a short time before Rae gets fed up of the sexualised bisexual obsession for her storylines and we also end up with sexist arse, Rob Thatcher whilst losing Duncan, Danny and it's the first exit of Mickey too post-rape and the death of his mother over to MIT. It's not all bad, we also get Terry, Ramani and Neil. In series 20 we lose Rob when he finishes his vengeance against The Radfords by murdering Irene and being shot by CO19. We also lose Debbie and Brandon and Eva transferred to MIT. We gain Suzie in return, however. Series 21 we lose Ken in an explosion and Jim walks away after losing June and Ken. Gary who has been playing in CID for a little while gets short and transfers to the Manchester police. Jo arrives and Mickey returns from MIT. There's a mysterious newbie when Adi Mateen pretending Zain also arrives when it turns out that he's not the annoying gangster that's been buzzing round Sun Hill but has been undercover!

Series 22-24 - In series 22 we lose Ramani and Suzie, however, we gain Stuart and Kezia. THISISNOTAFAIRSWAP. Ahem. In series 23 we gain Grace and also Max at the very very end, Zain reaches the end of his tenure after being drawn to the dark side with Kristen and Phil transfers out rather suddenly as Scott appears to have jumped very quickly over to EastEnders. Series 24 welcomes Stevie and Banksy and we don't lose anyone!

Series 25-26 - I ummed and ahhed about making the last series a stand-alone selection on its own because it's a reboot but given it's only essentially half a year long and that the character changes happen in series 25 I put the two together. So, in this series we lose Jack as DCI because he becomes Superintendent. However we don't gain a new DCI, Neil just remains DI and does both jobs. Jo gets promoted but moves to uniform. Sam, Stuart and Kezia go (Could not have taken Sam being promoted to DCI!) and no one else leaves (other than Will) from CID until the very end. We have Mickey undercover as a homeless man, Max's drug problem and Mickey and Terry confronting him. Grace and Neil get together but Neil's son is diagnosed with cancer and so much more. Finally the entire station works together to nail the rapists of poor Jasmine (Respect 1-2)!

(Yep you guessed it, I meant to post this in the sierra-Oscar comm but got distracted.)

Match Review: Manchester City U18 0-2 Manchester United U18

The season started with a bang for the United kids, back for a new campaign after utterly dominating last season and very nearly going the entire league unbeaten.

Manchester City, at all levels, have a stacked bank of talent. The U18s are a bloody good team and today they demonstrated that. 56% possession, 16 shots. The issue is that United are far more clinical. 7 fewer shots, but both sides had 5 on target - and United scored two.

United were on the back foot from the start, with City having a handful of chances before Tyler Fletcher hit a tame effort at the City keeper in the 12th minute. That seemed to wake United up and Biancheri could have given United the lead four minutes later.

Murdock was a busy lad in net for the remainder of the half, though Tyler Fletcher had another effort in the 41st minute - and again a curled low effort that was a little too easy for the keeper.

After the restart and Bendito Mantato's driving run down the right and into the box fizzed one across the ground to backpost where Tyler Fletcher skied over under pressure from the City defence and cramped out by his own teammate James Scanlon.

The opener came minutes later though - Gabi Biancheri poaching a lovely driven pass from wide right from Tyler Fletcher, finally rewarded with a goal involvement.

City pushed on to pressure United, but minutes later came goal number 2: a well worked passing move between Scanlon, Biancheri, and through the line to Baumann, whose acute cutback into the box was aimed for the run-on of Biancheri the striker but found Bendito first. Left foot, curled right, buried bottom corner. Lovely stuff.

The noisy neighbours put the pressure back on to United, but as the weather turned in classic English summer fashion, so too did City's dominance of possession water down. Subs of hot prospects Amir Ibragimov for Scanlon, and Jim Thwaites for Tyler Fletcher, gave United fans a glimpse of the U18s team to come, but it wouldn't be a Manchester derby without a little spice to finish the affair.

Will Murdock rushed out in the 79th as the last man to win the ball. He also got the man and luckily escaped with a yellow card. City then had a penalty shout in the 91st minute, while United were fouled AFTER the final whistle in a little bit of snide shithousery from a frustrated City.
