Anyone else watching this in Channel 5 and thinking Mumsnetters would have sorted this out so quickly.
LTB, Jake would be in CAMH's, flights home would have been booked, recompense would have been sought, ipads would have been confiscated.

I have no idea what you are talking about but those words are like catnip to me ...... Could it really be my entertainment holy grail 'a Mumsnet reality show'.

Yes please Nurse

Sad, I thought this post was about that fabulous Christmas film with Kate winslet ☹️

LOVED it but the stress 🥺 so much for a relaxing holiday ! It was absolute hell! I can imagine how intense the emotions …practically unbearable actually! Can’t wait for tonight’s episode 😁

I've not read the book , but I've seen it pop up on my Facebook feed occasionally being advertised and have read one other book by the same author ( although I can't remember what it was about )
I'm not impressed with the tv drama so far , but I agree that if the main character, Kate , ( Jill halfpenny ) were to start a ' aibu ' or relationship thread about this miserable holiday with her old friends from university and her creepy husband and their even creepier husbands and one of the teenage sons behavior , she would receive some good advice.
Go home being the biggest one!
They are all mega stressed out lol 😂

Those four kids are really hard going, I'll carry on watching but there's not one single character that I like.

They're all awful!

FitAt50 · 03/03/2022 14:27

I don't like any of the characters, especially the older boy who clearly is a future stalker/killer. I am predicting that its the daughter who is having an affair with one of the adult males but its all very very confusing.

Yeah me too, wondering if I’d forgotten who jake was!

All it has done is prove that Channel 5 really can't manage to produce a decent TV series. I was pretty shocked at the abysmal offering of The Teacher a few weeks ago but gave this one a go for about 10 minutes and yes confirmed, utter shite...

TempName01 · 04/03/2022 21:05

I’m enjoying it!

Frazzled50yrold · 05/03/2022 10:07

It was a bit confusing and maybe should have been all in one film length episode.
It's rarely I watch anything where I keep thinking why not just communicate better, less cursing and flaunting and more talk. The youngest in the show, playing Odette and Daniel ,were excellent.

Slight improvement on the last couple of "dramas" I have sat through. Nice twisty ending rather than just tailing off into the ether. Maybe an opening for a second series?

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 05/03/2022 10:46

I haven't watched the final one yet but it really does make the The Teacher and the recent series set in Turkey look like Oscar contenders!

73kittycat73 · 05/03/2022 11:22

I thought the ending was terrible. Regretted watching it all week.

thereisonlyoneofme · 05/03/2022 11:26

A real misery fest from start to finish

TempName01 · 05/03/2022 12:05

What would you do? 😬
