Episode forty two of Sledgecast looks back on the series, its highs and lows, triumphs and disasters. In this podcast Gerry and Iain consider how the show has aged, answer questions submitted by the listeners and cast their eyes forward to future endeavours.

The forty-first episode of Sledge Hammer was titled Here’s To You, Mrs Hammer and was the nineteenth and final episode of the show’s second season. Sledge suffers an emotional blow as his best friend from High School prepares to marry the former Mrs Hammer. In this podcast Gerry and Iain look at some soul searching for Hammer and a dramatic conclusion to the series.     During an interrogation, Hammer is surprised when a suspect’s lawyer turns out to be his old friend Scott Grable (Michael Kaufman [http://www.hollywood.com/celebrities/michael-kaufman-58310101/]) who turns out to be a formidable legal opponent. The pair become reacquainted and spend some time together looking back on the old days.   A dramatic twist follows when it transpires Grable is engaged to be married to Sledge’s ex-wife, Susan Hilton (Heather Lupton [http://www.masongross.rutgers.edu/theater/faculty/heather-rasche], married to David Rasche in real life!). This prompts some serious soul-searching for Hammer and, ultimately, a significant emotional development. Christopher Jackson [http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/latimes/obituary.aspx?pid=163787105] also appears as Grable’s client.   The episode was directed by Bill Bixby in the last of his eight episodes, with writing credits going to long-time contributors Mert Rich and Brian Pollack.   If you have thoughts on any aspect of Here’s To You, Mrs Hammer please share them below, or find us on Twitter at @sledgecast [https://www.twitter.com/sledgecast].   Sledgecast is widely available – on iTunes [https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/sledgecast-sledge-hammer!/id1143473803?mt=2], Stitcher [http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/heard-yet-media/sledgecast], Pocket Casts [http://pca.st/sledge] or pretty much wherever you choose to receive and manage your podcasts.
