I was worried the finale might deliver a rushed, happy ending, but I was relieved to find my fears were unfounded. The episode was meticulously crafted, taking its time without resorting to a cliched happy ending. Thankfully, this is a British series, not an American one, so I got to enjoy a satisfying conclusion without being overwhelmed by gallons of sentimentality and false happiness. ()
