For those that love Mistresses as much as me, I have just read in the latest Glamour mag that Mistresses is back on our tv screens early next month! Fabulous!

what a load of rubbish, so predictable. It has really lost the plot.

CerealOffender · 20/08/2010 08:16

drnortherner - i did roar when the twinkly eyed man admired her in that dress. she looked like a dinner lady

Loujalou · 20/08/2010 08:52

Is it wrong to have a bit of a girl crush on Siobhan? Also, I do quite like Jess' hair longer.

CerealOffender · 20/08/2010 08:56

siobhan is lovely but possibly a bit vacant?

what is with all the weirdly soft accents, i kept wanting a accent button on my remote to turn them up.

Loujalou · 20/08/2010 08:59

Ah I use subtitles anyway as am a bit deaf.....

oneofsuesylvesterscheerios · 20/08/2010 16:25

Agree about 'accent button' needed for Tv remote. Am glad they did the soft focus post-production and didn't reoly on me having to constantly use the 'face softener' button myself. I would have been v.busy. I couldn't even concentrate on that scene between Richard and TJudy in their garden as the focus was so fecked up: clear as a bell for his face shots and then 80 denier tights over the lens for her.

Though the climax was sooo tired and cliched and very Cold Feet: "what's that you say, you're going to drop everything for me and we'll run away together? yes, yes, make sure you don't drive very fast and distractedly, darling person whom I only just noticed 5 minutes ago but am willing to sacrifice every female relationship for because I'm such a fuckup. Hoorah we can both be happy together at last. Happy FOREVER! Yes, Bye!"

Cue blood on his windscreen and moby. What's the betting the police will give his moby back to Trudy and she will want to listen to his voice once again and so ring up his messaging service and... UH-OH that's Katie's message on the phone Shock

But nevertheless a very guilty pleasure because it's become so crap. What dh calls 'enjoyable pants'.

GreatOrmondSt · 20/08/2010 18:09

Ooh good call about the phone message OOSSC, I can definitely see that happening. I have a feeling Siobhan will tell her ex to go to the US and she'll think he's gone but he'll turn up on her doorstep at the end. Love this show but still in shock that Orla Brady is 49!! How is this possible??

diddl · 20/08/2010 18:55

Also, didn´t one of the girls hear him on the phone?

lifeinagoldfishbowl · 20/08/2010 19:16

Love this show - but it does feel a bit disjointed.

Katie - could see a mile a way that she wasn't going to get on that train

Siobhan - just get on with your life Dom is a dick!

Jess - is she pregnant? - found the whole being rather ill whilst in charge of Elsa a little confusing.

Trudy - god she's bloody annoying!

Conundrumish · 20/08/2010 20:26

Wondering if he might be disabled rather than dead. I can see it going full circle so that he is in the home with his wife having to visit him (and Katie?).

That train was a mighty long time pulling into the station - it was pulling up when Katie took the call, but still on the platform when police had identified the body and had time to tell Trudy!

CDMforever · 20/08/2010 21:11

GreatOrmond, Yes I know I can't believe she's 49 either!!! I'm 41 and look at least 10 years older than her. Does she have kids??? (apart from Elsa, obviously)

kittya · 20/08/2010 23:07

two points here: Elsa how old is she supposed to be and who was the baby in the buggy in the woods? surely not that giant of a toddler?

The calpol "did you drink some?" "no mummy" "thats ok then sweetheart" FFS!! she had it all over her face of course shed drank half a bottle!!!

CDMforever · 21/08/2010 11:11

Yes kitty, the toddler did rather look like an 8 year old in the buggy didn't she?!
More to the point, Elsa looks absolutely nothing like Siobhan or Dominic. I know toddlers can be tres chunky but she is MASSIVE and there's no sign of Siobhan's willowy genes there at all.
Still, at least Richard's gone - The Worst Actor of the Year. Can't get his role in The Office out of my head!

lifeinagoldfishbowl · 21/08/2010 13:08

Agree about the calpol altough it looked more like calomine lotion??? Hmm Confused

And that child is massive - how old is the child actress?

kittya · 21/08/2010 13:15

Im sure she wasnt in the buggy at the beginning. Lazy thing shouldve been running through the woods!!

lifeinagoldfishbowl · 21/08/2010 13:21

Yes think she must have been in the pushchair - otherwise who else would it have been and Jess smiled at the pushchair possibly because she was in it - however agree why wasn't she running with the others.

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/08/2010 13:22

cant beleive richard is dead Shock

wonder if trudie will listen to the message on the phone, i assume so

hope jess does stay away from mark - he is a bad un!!

hope siobhen and dominic get together and wtf with the medicine, she wanted some so i gave her some

and def looks older than 3!!

tegan · 21/08/2010 13:23

i was shocked too that richard is dead, but now is trudi gonna be given his phone by the police, she goes through it and hears the message from katie.

obviously jess is pg

soibhan tells dom to stay and they live happily ever after

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/08/2010 13:27

6mths passes and they all get together (what we saw in the 1st episode) for some reason

therefore jess should be waddling/heavily pregnant and didnt think she was when we saw her in episode 1

lifeinagoldfishbowl · 21/08/2010 13:40

Just watched the first part of the 1st episode and No Jess doesn't look pregnant - she looks rough and in unshapely clothes so maybe not showing yet but def doesn't look majorly pregnant.

BenHer · 21/08/2010 16:17

Am I the only one who absolutely howled with laughter at Trudies drunken infidelity confession?

Divatheshopaholic · 21/08/2010 16:54

I still cant get over Katie wanted Richard to come with herShock Shock
Trudi drunken confession was soo funnyGrin
Jess could have had premature baby??? May be?

JackieNo · 21/08/2010 17:02

It was indeed 'enjoyable pants', wasn't it Grin. The acting during Trudy's drunken confession was dreadful. I was another one telling Elsa to get out of the pushchair and have a run around, fgs!

diddl · 21/08/2010 17:20

If pregnant, Jess is only 6months-why would she be showing?

SixtyFootDoll · 21/08/2010 17:28

Why is Elsa wearing a cheap black wig and being wheeled around in a buggy, she is old enough to be in school surely?
