I’m afraid Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart passed away a few months ago. It was very peaceful. Talked a lot about you, if that’s any comfort. Always made us pour an extra brandy in case you came round one of these days.
THE ENDING OF LIFE ON MARS.
SPOILERS, BIG SPOILERS. PLUS ME RAMBLING
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK DOES THIS MEAANNNNN?! HE WOKE UP BUT KILLED HIMSELF BUT NOW HE’S BACK BUT HE COULD STILL HEAR THE SURGEON?! BUT NOW HE DOESN’T CARE!? DID HE EVER REALLY EVER REALLY WAKE UP? DOES HE DIE?! WAS THIS ACTUALLY A DREAM?! WAS HE EVEN IN A COMA?!
THE END MADE ME SOB, LITERALLY SOB. MY MIND IS FOREVER FUCKED. I’M GOING TO GO CURL UP IN A BALL AND EAT ICE CREAM FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
OKAY SO. HE DID REALLY WAKE UP BUT 2006/REALITY WAS SO BORING THAT HE JUMPED OFF THE BUILDING SO HE COULD BE BACK IN A COMA/DEAD/BACK IN 1973 BECAUSE HE FELT MORE ALIVE THERE. RIGHT? YES? THE REST IS DELIBERATELY ~UNEXPLAINED AS TO WHETHER 1973 IS REAL. BUT ASHES TO ASHES EXPLAINS IT. Although I actually prefer the end of LoM to A2A. Sacrilege, I know.
Was that helpful? No? Probably not. XD
