Still Game fans convinced Tam has faked own death for insurance scam to raise money for Winston’s leg
Much-loved and tight-fisted character Tam finally appeared to come the end during tonight's episode
STILL GAME fans have been reacting with their own conspiracy theory after the 'death' of Tam during tonight's episode.
One of the staple characters from the nine-series show, Tam Mullen finally appeared to reach the end in episode three of the final series.
The tight-fisted character fell out with Winston after insensitively asking for his pal's shoes after he found out he was losing his leg.
Winston chucked Tam out of his flat, only to later find out that he had 'passed away'.
However, all does not appear to be as it seems, with the deceased's wife Francis acting sheepish and guarded.
To add to the doubt, Winston got a call from Tams mobile just as the show was finishing with the pensioners at his wake.
And punters are convinced he had stayed true to his reputation and faked his own death in an insurance fraud aimed at raising money to get Winston a new leg.
