    This answers a few questions regarding the final series that I think the long term fans wanted answering. Explains why the series felt a little off and the reasons why. But it also shows how hard Ashley and Kano fought to make it show as authentic as possible for the fans. Both top men who give their all to what they do.

    Love that the lads put everything into making the final season as good as they could. But theres some insight here too about why the season itself just feels a bit rushed. It really felt like another 4 episodes could have been added to everything. The Irish angle was gone before it really had potential to be a main feature of the series, and a lot of the season in general just felt too rushed, as though scenes, episodes worth of plot and character development was omitted. I liked the season a lot overall, but something did fell off, rushed.

    It’s sad that the legacy of this amazing series was tarnished by this final season. Dushane’s decisions were completely out of character from the calculated, smart, even ruthless guy we came to know. Sully’s character development from the previous 2 seasons post-Summerhouse was washed away. Jaq deciding to steal from Sully was a ridiculous plot device, especially since she had already done them wrong by aiding Lauren’s getaway previously. The whole Rwanda thing felt contrived. The only redeeming aspect were the deaths of the Dushane and Sully - both done well and rightly without any fanfare

      The season wasnt great, but not because of what you mentioned, the characters different traits were fitting actually. Dushane going from top boy to the fear of having nothing made him act like that. Jaq the same, she didnt steal from Sully to start beef with him, she had always turned a blind eye to what the drugs were doing in her community until it affected her, then she snapped, she wanted to get rid of the drugs, not profit from them.
      The season was a mess because they introduced new characters to kill them off, the undercover cop story just disappeared, Dushane getting scammed the way he did just wouldnt work, they killed off Jamie for shock value and then had no idea where to go, awful decisions.

    I understand why Ash feels the way he does about the how the final season ended, but here's another perspective. Another recurring but subtle theme in top boy is the absence and moving on of certain characters like Ranell and Gem. They wanted it to be as real as possible, and in real life some people leave the hood and never come back. Whoever is left that remembers them eventually fades into obscurity as well. With the amount of characters not returning and the dwindling down of the ones we came to love it really didn't need to be dragged out.
    Last but not least, that first murder Dushane and Sully ever committed against Sean came back full circle for both of them in the end.

    it makes no sense how they had so much creative freedom in every other season. And then the final and probably the most important they didnt really get what they want. Yet they had the same writer in Ronan Bennett who did great as Ashley has said before in writitng a really realistic script and taking storys from people in that life and area and using that to help with making it as authentic as possible. And then the last season not being as good as the rest.

Sully just becoming a monster - what happened to his Polish burd? The undercover cops- where are they? Sexy Lizzie just gone. Only decent story was Jax. Poor final season and was clear it just ran out of steam. Also very telling Kano has done NO publicity around this season.

    I always throught Ashley didn't want to do it no more but after I watched this, the decision to leave at season 3 don't think was his choice, there could of been 10 plus seasons to this and it could of ran for years and years shame it come to a end and season 3 I'm sorry was not on par with the other seemed rushed and you can tell the script was changed him production.

  • @Professional_Youtube_Commenter

    they came to my block and did at least 6 or 7 days of filming, i watched the whole series to look for glimpses. but it was over in 10 seconds of viewing. pretty disapointed. possibly used some of the properties inside. but there is just 1 scene of sully and dushane driving through the road. and a nother scene of dushane running out of the house from police. that was it.

    Dushane's ending was brutal and poignant. He lost millions, the woman he love, and ended up stealing from his friend. He died like a complete goof crying and bleeding behind a gate after being shot by his friend. Brutal but brilliant end.

    • @Piranha-10
      @Piranha-10 Рік тому +1

      yes, I completely understand you, but I was really very angry and I will explain why. the subject millions you are talking about that he lost because of lizzy waae, that subject remained in the series. it disappeared in one fell swoop after he was told you have to flee. You haven't heard anything more about Lizzy and that whole subject, which I thought was a shame. I would have liked to see Lizzy get caught by that secret detective, but that's my opinion. otherwise one of the best series ever

      i think they just had to find a way to end the series because in reality aint no way afterhe killed jeffrey he would leave that mess like that. they showed him cleaning like a kitchen counter but not where he slide his face n beat his ass with that pan. and leaving the pan... like cmon n didnt he have a vest on at the end so how come when he got shot he just bled out.

    • @AdeleKakwandi
      @AdeleKakwandi Рік тому +4

      @@RedlineRacers Yeah it was not rushed ngl but I think it pointed at the unpredictability in life. Yes Dushane was usually smart and careful but losing £15 million put him over the edge and made him sloppy and careless. It happens, even the big dons like El Chapo slipped up and are in cells. Lastly I don't think he was wearing the vest at the end the only time he had a vest was when he and Sully moved on the Irish.
