Currently on the first episode of The Guest and I swear I am going mad! The whole premise seemed v.familiar and I’ve just gone to turn it off as I swear I’ve watched it before but it’s only just been released! Is it based on anything else? Is it a remake? I’m going mad lol 😂

But you don’t know what is going to happen though surely?

I swear I have seen a similar drama where the cleaner pretends that it is their house, they invite a date over that turns nasty and they accidentally end up killing their date. Definitely seen something very similar but trying to work out what! Very odd!

Have you read The Housemaid?

Sorry, edited to say many Housemaid readers are saying it is similar. I don't see it myself.

Interested in this thread?

I've not started watching this but also sounds very familiar!

I'll go and check it out.

It's only something I've watched very recently though, maybe Netflix? Don't know, but from what you've said it's ringing bells.

I saw this or something like it on Gogglebox - do you watch that?

I watch loads of crime dramas but I swear I’ve seen one with an almost identical premise.

It has a lot if similarities and I thought the same at the start but I have watched it all and quite enjoyed it and hadn’t seen it before.

im on episode two now and I definitely haven’t seen it but it’s going to bug me all night as to what it is similar to!
