This episode was shown on the ABC in Australia last night and whilst I thought it was a briliant episode ot got me thinking:

Is this some veiled attempt to have a shot at the M25? I mean you have a storyline which involves people living and being born on the Motorway; to be fair I heard tale of the M25 being so bad at times that people geniunely have moved more than a couple of hundred feet in an hour.

My other comment had to do with the fact that it had Ardal O'Hanlon in it as a cat person. His other well known role was Father Dougal Maguire, and I couldn't help but yell "Drink, Feck, Arse, Girls" at the TV.

It's entirely possible. Gridlock was a Russell T Davis penned episode, and he can't resist shoehorning in a thinly veiled political point.

Good episode though, especially Father Dougal in unconvincing cat make-up! :laugh:
