One Foot in the Grave (Tankard album) thrash release. One Foot in the Grave (Tankard album) One Foot in the Grave is the seventeenth studio album by the German thrash metal band Tankard. It was released on 2 June 2017, on the Nuclear Blast label. "Metal Hammer" Germany called the track "Arena of the True Lies" a catchy continuation of the band's previous album "R.I.B" and cited "Syrian Nightmare" as being singer Gerre's expression of anger about the current political situation in the Middle East. The reviewer for "Rock Hard", too, praised the album as being catchy with strong lyrics, although he found the riffs too unoriginal
One Foot in the Grave had gone upstairs during a game of Happy Families and not returned; Ronnie then shows her feet hanging outside of the window, revealing that she has committed suicide. The Broadcasting Standards Commission received complaints about this scene. When the final episode, "Things Aren't Simple Any More" originally aired on 20 November 2000 at 9pm, it coincided with the broadcast of the first jackpot winner in the UK version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?", which had been filmed the Sunday before the broadcast. ITV was accused of engineering this in order to damage the final episode's expected high ratings,
