A tribute to Life On Mars' DCI Gene Hunt.

Thumbs up if you just love the way that guy says "bastard".

[@RockerH2526]

It’s a practiced art!

[@happyme6153]

And SHUT UP!

[@jhfdhgvnbjm75]

Just like Sean Bean as Sharp XD a shotgun blast with both barrels!

[@KaydeyRai]

What a fantastic character, the bbc haven't done anything close to this good since

[@karlwhite8769]

Absolutely brilliant. The BBC wouldn't dare to show a character like that in case it offends 1 per cent of people.

[@dave3580]

Completely agreed. Sadly if Gene said a single line today, crowds of snowflakes would be protesting in London's streets for the sake of moaning.

[@happyme6153]

Amen

[@RHCPfan458]

Gene Hunt was, and always will be, The Gene Genie.

[@nrthernbloke9462]

The best series on British TV for as long as can remember..

[@mamamurray2]

I just finished Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes for the first time on Britbox, and I think I'm in love with Gene Hunt. 😄 Seriously, what excellent shows they are!! I loved them! 💜💜

[@jorvikaengelskvinna7157]

I've avoided watching Ashes to Ashes because I couldn't imagine Gene without Sam Tyler. Binged it over the last two weeks and just watched the final episode last night. Cried like a baby. Keeley Hawes was wonderful. Philip Glenister is a legend. I wish the new series with John Sim would go ahead, but it's not looking likely now.

[@aquamarine_nz2296]

​@@jorvikaengelskvinna7157yeah Yes, I can't believe the person responsible for not going ahead with the new series could be so short sighted. Probably some woke idiot that doesn't get it. All the original actors were on board. Would have been amazing.

[@Vailover4ever]

I love the Gene Genie.Philip Glenister is an awesome actor,he's got so much charisma,he brings coolness to a character who's otherwise nasty and kind of hateful with everyone around him;but I can't help myself I love Gene.Thanks for posting this.

Gene was that good that he makes you believe that the song ‘Gene Genie’ was actually wrote for him

Must be my legendary prowess as a lover.

Philip Glenister brilliantly delivered all those wonderful Huntisms.And lovin' the incomparable John Simm ♥ ♥! Terrific clips, and yeah, we'll always trust the Jean Genie! Thank you from the bottom of my LOM loving heart!! :)

[@Einstein852]

Best ever series. I watch it over and over again. What a great pairing of 2 great actors 👏

Rest in Peace David Bowie.

This, my dear Americans, is LIFE ON MARS. :D

[@ameerasyeda429]

This is the 2021 comment you were looking for and no, you can’t be too late to watch this iconic show🤭😊

[@sirsurfalot2012]

A labour of love indeed. The song and quotes go very well together.

[@csmith63]

There's no doubt that Gene is the Genie in making magic happen for this show! (To give John Simm his due, I get that often it's the straight man with the tougher job and adore Simm for being connected enough with his frequent co-star/pal that he can deliver his end and then just get out of the way without ego being a thing.) However, I popped up to give you props, too, because the way you edited together those clips of him with the flasks so that he's drinking to the background beat over Bowie's harmonica break is a nice wave of the wand, too!

[@jayobrien1911]

The greatest character in the history of television.

I love his character so much! And he's very good looking. Thanks for this....to be added to my 'favourites' on here.

[@drnik67]

Nice work, great song by a much-missed legend, in this case used to show us a bloody legend! He's so wrong but so right.....

[@ldyer10]

So much better than any of the other Gene vids!

[@spudspuddy]

God i was back there, fecking adore Gene Hunt and Bowie, double whammy, my era

Best character!

[@U2QuoZepplin]

Aren't they suposed to be bringing this show back , which sounds great but some how I can't imagine it being so good the second time around.

[@Megalocade]

Yea apparently the pilot script is written but the BBC don't seem to be interested in picking it up, shame

[@12dollarsand78cents]

I know this is the original, but I guess it's just the differences in our cultures. Me and my friends would get together and watch the American "translated" version and have a ball reliving the 70's. Because the American version was cancelled, I'll have to buy the original series and watch it. I hope to enjoy it as I get into it and your culture of the 70's.

[@0208name]

I came here with the same thing in mind as Danny B has said below (no i don't owe him any money). This a GREAT mini montage of the series. Love to see another final series made that explains everything thats happened on Mars and Ashes etc etc. Maybe somebody comes out of the shower as an explanation ? Maybe they finally wake up in ITU ? Maybe it was all a dream ? Or was it ! (o:)

This was made and broadcast only 15 or so years ago, but I'm betting they wouldn't show anything like it now, everything is too bloody woke. It would offend too many people lol.

[@32ModB]

The 70's had less dialogue....a lot less 😊

[@HyahAsSlah]

Why on earth would you put music over so we can't hear a god damn word they say?

[@peterherrington3300]

Could of been good collection but music drowned out the dialogue

[@TAILSESTVITA1955]

Great video ruined with loud music Gene genie track was ideal choice it's just too loud, Could hardly hear what was being said. As

[@jazzzyy13]

Would have been a great video if you'd had the song and not the voices, but the voices kind of ruined it because they were out of sync with the song... still some great editing, though.

[@marksquire3519]

Tip ---- get two lots of you tube up,- one with video and sound turned down, and the other one with Jean Genie ( by David Bowie ) with sound turned up!! And then do the same with a Liberachi song!! LOL!!
