I mentioned this a while ago.

There was a red van-did it have a RM logo?

Can't remember.

What do Danny's dad & friend do?-anything involving HV vests??

Oh yes cornypony, thanks for the reminder!

Bisjo,...surely that only happens in Agatha Christie??!!

LIZS · 18/03/2013 17:56

Was the van Danny's dad got into red ?

diddl · 18/03/2013 18:13

I had a feeling it was a white van.

No idea tbh.

Last weeks seem ages ago!

bigbadbarry · 18/03/2013 19:10

I think Morse used to do that too - or was it Frost. Getting old, all those murders are merging into one. Hate it when somebody new is introduced and turns out to have done it right at the end!

LittlePushka · 18/03/2013 20:47

Must have been Morse - Frost only ever had four characters, two of which were coppers and one of which was deceased - but to be fair to number four, she/he was always in it from the beginning!

Move away from me or I will piss in a cup and throw it at you. Glorious line!!

smugmumofboys · 18/03/2013 22:06

Kind of enjoying this. Have any other Saturday night Scandi fans noticed the Killing-esque music during the show and that the closing song is similar to the one at the end of the Bridge.

ApplesinmyPocket · 18/03/2013 22:29

I'm enjoying Ellie's developing 'relationship' with Alec. Reluctantly, irritatedly, exasperatedly motherly. I hope he thaws a little with her.

Clawdy · 18/03/2013 22:32

Arcadie didn't think she said that?? I need subtitles!

Slainte · 18/03/2013 22:47

Agreed Arcadie that was the best line I've heard in a long time Grin

HelgatheHairy · 18/03/2013 22:48

I def heard the "piss in a cup" line as had to explain to DH why I burst out laughing! Also love how she asked him to dinner.

Her (Ellie?) son definately knows more than he's letting on.

That wasn't Marks boat on fire at the end was it?

shugfish · 18/03/2013 22:52

Looked at my phone at the end at crucial moment. Did Danny's mum see her husband with the other women?

Slainte · 18/03/2013 22:54

Yes she did shugfish

shugfish · 18/03/2013 22:55

Mmmm, that will be an interesting conversation over breakfast tomorrow

Blu · 18/03/2013 23:03

The business of the prints in the hut was not cleared up, i.e whether or not he did a job in the hut, nor did they check his story about the blood on the boat. The blood looked a lot less than 3 weeks old to me.

It all seems a bit patchy.

difficultpickle · 18/03/2013 23:06

That's what the last 15 mins of week 8 is for Grin

BOF · 18/03/2013 23:08

And that was the boat on fire at the end?

PuffPants · 19/03/2013 00:05

Really disappointed this week. Such mediocre, clunky writing. All a bit detection by numbers. The mother asks God for a sign her son's all right. Cue psychic on the doorstep with a message that he's all right. Eh?

It seems as though each scene gives directly into the next. The daughter texts someone saying "if you know where my dad was, tell the police" - immediately the recipient obeys.

Just finding it all a bit undramatic now. And the female detective is implausible. Even for a sleepy backwater, she seems dippy.

I imagine we will get to the end and think they could have told this story in half the time.

Fiderer · 19/03/2013 04:12

That wasn't his boat, I think. It was woody, his was fibreglassy-plasticky

Loved the dinner invitation accompanied by the "piss in a cup" line. Apart from that, a slow burner episode. Apart from the burning boat Grin

Young Master Selfridge was good.

JakeBullet · 19/03/2013 06:26

Absolutely loving this ...watched to first two episodes via ITV Player and then episode three last night.

Apparently even the cast were kept in the dark about who did it until the last few days of filming.

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 19/03/2013 07:59

What was in the back of Mark's mate's van that he covered up quickly when that journalist and Olivia Colman's reporter-nephew arrived to talk to him?

He is apparently a hopeless liar re: giving Mark an alibi but why do they assume his mum is telling the truth when she gave different times for his whereabouts for the night in question, could he have been up to no good and be the murderer?

cornsilkcremeeggspotter · 19/03/2013 08:21

it was a Daryl Dixon crossbow in the back of the van - looked well dodgy.

I don't think it was the Dad's boat on fire - it looked like a different shape
