Warning: Spoilers
I wanted to like this, and it made me cry a lot, which is usually a sign of a good programme. However, the happy ending, which should have felt like redemption or relief after the exploration of so much grief, was thoroughly tainted by the fact that one of the main characters marries someone else hours before she gets together with the other main character for their happily ever after. I wanted to root for these two characters who have suffered so much and are helping each other overcome pain; however, how are you supposed to root for them when they are essentially cheating on a perfectly decent man who has done nothing wrong? It was such a misguided attempt to create drama when all it does is spoil any goodwill you have built up towards these characters. Cheating on someone, even if the person you are doing it with is the perfect person you are supposed to be with forever, is never romantic.
