ITV viewers have been gripped by the thrilling drama of Our House<\/a>, starring Tuppence Middleton and Martin Compston as separated man and wife, Fi and Bram.<\/p>\n

The Our House ending might seem pretty complete, but there are a couple of questions that still need to be answered.<\/p>\n

During the thrilling finale, Fi finally discovered that Toby (played by Rupert Penry-Jones) wasn\u2019t the man she thought he was.<\/p>\n

In fact, he was Mike, a complete rotter who managed to blackmail Bram into fraudulently selling his marital home.<\/p>

After a tense confrontation, Fi ended up poisoning Mike with a cocktail of drugs which killed him outright.<\/p>\n

Bram, meanwhile, decided to come clean on his part in the crime, not knowing that Fi was trying to evade the police by insisting she didn\u2019t know who Mike was (it\u2019s half true, she thought he was Toby\u2026).<\/p>\n

The distraught Bram ended up taking his own life for his crimes, but not before accidentally revealing Fi did know Mike\/Toby, meaning she was likely to be sent down for his death.<\/p>\n

But there were still some unanswered questions: Did Fi get charged? What happened to Mike\u2019s accomplice Wendy? What happened to Fi and Bram\u2019s kids?<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s unlikely we\u2019ll get any answers to these questions, according to Martin Compston, who spoke exclusively to RadioTimes.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Why won\u2019t there be an Our House season 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When asked if he thought the series would return, Compston explained: \u201cI think these days, people are far too afraid to just let something be \u2013 I think you can run the risk of spoiling a great original with a bad sequel, and I\u2019ve seen that happen several times.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cI think there is something psychological in your head when you go, \u2018This is it, this is the one-off drama\u2019, and you commit to it fully, and we\u2019re not coming back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there\u2019s something really appealing in that as an actor, you know, where we just knew this is a one-off, and we\u2019re all in and then it\u2019s done. There\u2019s something really exciting about that as well because you\u2019re not going to get a second chance to address everything that goes wrong in the first, so you\u2019re really committed.\u201d<\/p>\n
