Future
Ford Kiernan, Greg Hemphill and Paul Riley's company Effingee Productions is thought to have split up after Riley walked away to go it alone after being refused more control over the future of the company by Kiernan. Hemphill then also walked away after saying he didn't want a "boardroom battle". Therefore there will almost certainly not be another series of Still Game.
Riley has since taken the lead role in the sitcom Dear Green Place, playing a park keeper, while Kiernan also features prominently as the chief park keeper.
Sanjeev Kohli's self-written radio sitcom Fags, Mags and Bags features himself as a Glasgow convenience-store owner, not dissimilar to his Still Game character of Navid.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“The future is inevitable and precise, but it may not occur. God lurks in the gaps.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
“Perfect present has no existence in our consciousness. As I said years ago in Erewhon, it lives but upon the sufferance of past and future. We are like men standing on a narrow footbridge over a railway. We can watch the future hurrying like an express train towards us, and then hurrying into the past, but in the narrow strip of present we cannot see it. Strange that that which is the most essential to our consciousness should be exactly that of which we are least definitely conscious.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“Mothers have as powerful an influence over the welfare of future generations, as all other causes combined.”
—John Abbott. The Mother at Home; or the Principles of Maternal Duty, John Abbott, Crocker and Brewster (1833)
