There had been a little too much cringe humour for me in the episode up until that point, and I'd been about to label the story 'not one of my favourites' when the snog scene came on, and I forgave the episode its every sin. :)
(Mind you, I'm not sure what it says about me as a slash writer, that for me, the highlight of the scene was the endless cop cars and not the snog at all.)
Interesting statements about male behaviour/sexuality/attitudes could be seen in the episode as a whole. My partner has, of course, memorised all the football lines for the next time he's forced to converse with a 'real' man. ;)
Oh, I loved it all, I thought it was a vast improvement on last weeks which didn;t seem to get goig at all until the last 5 minutes. Moss and Roy trying to be real men? What's not to like? *g*
The man I live with is nothing like a real man at all, either. He used to be a sports photographer who couldn't name a single player or understand any of the rules. The bit where Roy is crying in the car, rolling out the same stuff was genius, I thought.
