To be honest I was half expecting some half-arsed clickbait type title like "Viewers SHOCKED as kids from My Parents Are Aliens shown to have grown up in reunion photo".
I always felt Series 8 was one of those "network insists" things. If production wants to wrap it up after 7 series but the network wants an 8th because its been a solid performer, history shows that this is rarely a good thing, and as was proved here... it wasn't.
Maybe if it had been two or three years later, but straight after? I think the killer was the whole "lets wipe the parents memories and we'll start again", though I can't actually remember why they did that in the storyline of the show, ironically enough.
