And the weird stones dropping from the sky. What's that all about?

MaggieMaggieMaggieMcGill · 05/03/2013 22:51

I think they are teeth. Linus's bruise healed quickly! Overnight practically.

would love to know where it was filmed, have been watching for any clues but I don't think it is somewhere I have visited...

MaggieMaggieMaggieMcGill · 05/03/2013 22:56

Ok, not teeth!

NorthernLurker · 05/03/2013 23:23

Things we learnt tonight (spoilers):

There is good Seth and bad Seth - is this significant?

Linus' dad likes blondes and was having a thing with Hattie. His wife was also blonde and is mysteriously dead and continues to appear at the edge of the woods.

Malcolm is dead and prior to being dead was peeping tom and crap at business. Again I think this is all red herring

Seth described Hattie as an earth spirit

Caitlin is being showered with stones

Charlotte could hear the woods whispering to her and then talked to her hamster

Charlotte's dad Alan is STILL behaving strangely

I don't think there's a straightforward explanation for any of this. I don't think Hattie is necessarily dead but I think the woods send you utterly loopy. Malcolm spent time there and is dead, Gail despairs every time she sets foot there, Seth is very odd, Charlotte can hear the trees talking to her. I think Seth's throwaway reference to druids may turn out to be interesting.

I don't get how Hattie could have rung Caitlin either. She was in her MAy Queen costume - where was her phone?

MaggieMaggieMaggieMcGill · 05/03/2013 23:59

And Charlotte claims to have seen Hattie on her way to be may queen but her mother does not agree and is being very insistent that Charlotte is mistaken.

MaggieMaggieMaggieMcGill · 06/03/2013 00:02

Oh and that Hattie and Everett went to a dance class ( or hattie did and Everett watched or something) every weds at eight. There was quite a bit of dialougue to give you plot elements and no other reason for it, in this episode.

Pixel · 06/03/2013 00:14

It's obvious that the PO didn't have a 'hearing' to go to and there were no charges in the first place to be dropped. He just told his wife a story to cover up the blood on his shirt.

I'm getting really sick of everyone covering up evidence, is there not one person in that village who would go to the police?

NorthernLurker · 06/03/2013 07:53

I think that the fact that the other girls in the class won't dance without Hattie is more than a little Wickermanesque Grin

mrsjay · 06/03/2013 08:58

*come forward if they knew of anyone locally who could have committed a 'heinous, evil crime' and they had multiple phonecalls naming different people within a small community. That's why it is not all from the police angle (like these things usually would be for these dramas - I wonder if that's why the police seem feckless, just because we aren't seeing much of them?)
Anyway - quite enjoying it, hoping for a creepy ending *

Oh is it I quite like that it isn't a police drama and yes they all suspecting each other, you could see that happening in a community, oh he was weird or he was always hanging about iyswim. the Police man Fis husband is a creep . I am wondering if it is a wickerman thing (clutches at straws) . I am gripped and I hope it hasn't got a feeble ending

mrsjay · 06/03/2013 09:54

DO you think Everet is taking dance classes to pick up girls or is the teacher who picks up girls?

nipersvest · 06/03/2013 09:57

the character of fiona is bugging me a bit. as an ex cop, i would have thought she'd take what her daughter was trying to tell her a bit more seriously given she obviously is suspicious of both everet and her husband.

mrsjay · 06/03/2013 10:00

she is acting a bit shady though I know she suspects the men but she should have trusted her child she isn't all that young that she didn't know what she who she had seen

NorthernLurker · 06/03/2013 10:10

Maybe fiona did it?

guineapiglet · 06/03/2013 10:22

Got embroiled watching an equally tortuous Champions league match of epic proportions last night, so only tuned in for last 20 minutes, so all your comments have got me up to speed - thought the bit with the recorded phone message was quite creepy and shows the 'twin' now has a reason for keeping this evidence hidden, Linus' dad is really creepy as well. Why didn't Fiona believe her daughter and why did she sob so in the bathroom? Did she really believe that was a birds' nest?!!?

Like others up post, part of me just does not care, because none of them seem like 'real' people - but maybe that is the whole point, we have all got something to hide, and also, as a huge LOST fan, I dont want to be walked up the garden path to some really feeble ending - but I will still watch as I want to know now!

nipersvest · 06/03/2013 10:47

some (spoiler) info here about the last episode, click the 'show more' button

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/03/2013 12:08

while making this no one knew who did it till the end, to make it more life like and all actors acting suspiciously iyswim

Malcolm hanging wasnt good - brought back memories :(

charlotte is most insistent she saw hattie, yet mum says she didnt - why

pervy but sexy aiden having it off with a 14yr - saying that she didnt look 14 at the beginning when cycyling, i would have placed her 20ish

hattie and caitlin both played by same person - useless fact Grin

wondering if catlin had something to do with her sister disappearing

NorthernLurker · 06/03/2013 13:00

for blondes Sad

valiumredhead · 06/03/2013 13:02

Last night's episode was very unsettling especially the end!

Can some one explain the relevance of NDN - next door neighbour obviously but did Hattie write that somewhere? I seem to have missed that bit.

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/03/2013 13:06

thanks lurker didnt expect that-always the unexpected

valium was on the inside door of hatties school locker -

valiumredhead · 06/03/2013 13:16

Ahhh thanks, that makes sense!

CointreauVersial · 06/03/2013 13:24

Ivykaty44 - it's filmed in Dorking (Surrey).

mrsjay · 06/03/2013 16:37

Maybe fiona did it?

maybe she did but why ?

mrsjay · 06/03/2013 16:40

do you think Linus knew malcom liked boys because of his erm webcam enterprise in the first episode and he was online half naked talking to an older man doing something for more money and I am not believing these kids are 14 maybe 24 but not 14 Grin

BeaWheesht · 06/03/2013 16:44

Yes mrsjay - that's why. Also not sure re his son either.

I think it might've been the sister. She looked unreasonably shocked when she saw her sister wasn't on the float and am thinking maybe she played a prank that went wrong? Or was involved in a prank that went wrong?
