I think you were left to believe that he wanted to float off and die peacefully, without being too graphic.

It was good to see some new, well acted drama, on tv for a change.


It was a brilliant play until the ending. I was enjoying seeing Malta and shouting out, "Hey, look, there's the Coastline. Ooh, look, that's that church on Gozo with all the crutches," etc. and the plot was great - BUT - What the hell was he going to tell his mother, after he floated his dad away? And wouldn't he immediately be arrested for murder? The story was very moving but the ending was too silly for little old practical me.
