What happened in the final?
This programme is now off-air.
In the final episode:
While Jodie searches frantically for Denise, Theresa
finds support from an unlikely source. Can Brian finally be laid to
rest?
For actor Scott Wills, the thought of playing Warren Crowley on
Burying Brian was not very appealing, but the opportunity to work
with Ian Mune was not to be missed.
"To be completely honest I didn't really want to do the part at
all. The thought of playing a wife beating parking warden kind of
curdled my milk a bit."
He says the decider was getting to work with Ian Mune again and
seeing it as a comedy rather than any serious exposé on the
Kiwi male.
"The scenes I did with Ian made it worthwhile - you don't really pass on those sorts of opportunities. Ian is a very funny man."
For Wills the most challenging part of the role was pitching the
right performance.
"When you look at the costumes, the colours and the scenario, it's
not what you'd call a straight drama or traditional naturalism. To
find that somewhat heightened dramatic pitch without being too
ridiculous was always going to be a little hard," he says.
Wills' scenes with Mune can be seen tonight on the season finale of Burying Brian, as Jodie saves Warren's life by rushing him to the hospital. Checking himself out of hospital, he goes in search of Denise, but is not the only one. Looking frantically for Denise, Jodie hopes she hasn't thrown herself off a cliff.
Meanwhile, Josh takes his father's place as Kimberley's partner,
much to the disgust of his former girlfriend Alex; and Theresa
finds support from an unlikely source.
Can Brian finally be laid to rest?
