I always watched this episode with a sense of sadness, sad for the early passing of Dermot, sad that the show ended, and sad that with the content of the episode.
I now need to rethink how I look upon this episode, it's another quality piece in the wonderful jigsaw that is series three. More absurdity, more outrageous laughs, the way Ted dances to the music whilst his poor guest is feeling so dark inside, and of course that scene when Radiohead are played.
That montage at the end reminds us just how incredibly funny this special series was, it never dates.
Would the show have carried on had Dermot not passed away, I'm not so sure, I feel like it had reached its natural conclusion. 8/10.
