Anyone watching it? What do you think? Just about to watch episode four on BBC 4 and I'm really enjoying it.

I've just checked the thread that started last week, nobody else appears to be watching!

I'm watching it and I'm gripped. Anyone got any theories?

I'm watching. Well, have watched episode 3 and recorded 4 . Haven't really got a clue as to whodunnit but am still suspicious about the uncle, the cousin Chris and the owner of the racing track.

I think it was Cousin Chris.

In many ways, it's like a good old fashioned murder mystery with a list of plausible suspects, rather than a crazed random with no motive and awful ways of dispatching people.

I did think Chris and now, I'm not so sure. I think it could be the guy who runs the race track.

I'm loving all the red herrings. Can I add the dodgy teacher into the mix?

Spotted this on iplayer last night and was wondering whether to watch it - think I will now, I like something that assumes you've got a brain and has lots of twists and turns.
Thanks

And it's set in Lyon, one of my favourite cities.

I'm loving it. Just finished episode 4 tonight. It's great that so many of the characters have guilty secrets and it isn't obvious yet who did it. My suspicion is on her cousin Chris but I'll probably be proved wrong. Looking forward to next week.

Loving it too. Foreign language crime dramas - what is not to love.

Yes Cousin Chris isn't keen on Lea is she!

I am surprised there hasn't been much attention from the media on the family. I would have normally expected that?

I like the woman police officer too. One small thing that also adds to my enjoyment is that it isn't filmed in the half light!

I watched the first 2 episodes, waiting for half term to be over and a bit of quiet to watch last night's episodes.

I really liked it, very gripping. Can't believe their homes look so gorgeous, love the grey blue colour in their flat!

Surely not every teen in France is as gorgeous as this lot?! I also wonder if I'll be as laid back with my teens when they reach that age: 4am curfews and lots of smoking Hmm

Dh and I were saying that it stretched credibility a teeny bit that the detective's daughter was present at the end of the last episode trying not to post spoilers

There are so many secrets waiting to be unearthed. All the youngsters seem to be in on something together - the boyfriend (can't remember his name) is obviously hiding something.

I am enjoying it. Not a clue what is going on but Lea is not as innocent and sweet as her parents seem to think. Powerful acting.

I wondered about that too Need but assumed that the boyfriend had told him about it.

The uncle has been implicated twice now for speeding offences; once when his wife died and again when he left his mistress and raced home to be there before Chris got back from the music festival. I wonder whether the speeding has any significance? I'm sure he is hiding something major and wonder whether Lea was with him at some point and he drove dangerously.

We watched them on iPlayer last night. Meant to only watch episode 3 but decided to watch them both.

I'm not convinced that was her body. We've got another 2 weeks and 4 episodes to go...
