I knew what you meant! Smile I was disappointed in the ending too.

Is this ok for for a 12 year old (year 8) to watch? A friend of my 14 year old ds1 is in it so they both want to watch it. I recorded it, but have no idea what it is about!

RiaUnderTheMistletoe · 12/12/2012 22:54

schilke I didn't find it frightening but (so far) it has murder, suicide, drugs and stalking, if that helps.

Who did the friend play?

pigsinmud · 13/12/2012 19:53

She was Lara. I think I'll watch it first!

Just got around to watching it but OMFG it was tedious!

All the characters-irritating & bloody Biba!

So, yes-Biba killed the Dad & Karen shot Lenny.

Biba isn´t dead I don´t think-and Alice-Biba´s or Karen´s?

She was prattling on in that self obsessed way like Biba.

diddl · 15/12/2012 14:32

I´m guessing that the stalking is Biba wanting to get Alice back.

Gosh it was hard going, sooooo boring! How does it differ from the book? I have downloaded the sample on kindle but not sure I'lll bother unless it's very different.

MikeLitorisHasChristmasLights · 18/12/2012 09:04

I was so glad when it ended. Dull and badly acted.

I don't think I will bother with the book.

diddl · 18/12/2012 11:54

I´m wading through it atm & I just don´t get why she stays with Rex.

So Biba kills 2 people & he goes to prison for it & Karen stays with him???!!!

Atthewelles · 18/12/2012 12:42

I thought it was very poor - flat characters, patchy storyline with loads of holes, and I really didn't think the actress who played Alice was right for the part.

moajab · 18/12/2012 12:53

So is Karen going to go through the pregnancy without the medical staff realising she's not given birth before? And it's one thing to stop a 12 year old seeing her birth certificate, but what about as Alice gets older?

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/12/2012 13:58

bit of a let down tbh

and now karen is a murderess

guess thats brotherly love for rex to take the blame

and assume karen will never tell rex that biba came back

diddl · 18/12/2012 14:12

Didn´t really make sense, did it?

She thought Biba was dead, I guess Alice would have ended up in care?

When Biba turned up she didn´t really get angry, did she, as in "I THOUGHT YOU WERE FUCKING DEAD"

I don´t get why she didn´t tell Rex the truth, though-although I think he´d have cared more, thinking that Alice was Biba´s tbh!

Or why he was such a twat as to try & get the job that the neighbour had been on about(I assume that´s how he found out who he was)

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/12/2012 14:27

would have made more sense for rex to know alice was bibas and to 'adopt' her tho guess as he was in prison then karen wouldnt have got her as not married and might have ended in care

better to pretend to everyone else that she was theirs but rex to know the truth

also assuming that they then always kept alice a year diff from what she should have been - hence not wanting her to go to france and get passport
