[Blondeshavemorefun]

sexy david tennant 'blonde drools' plays a police officer who investigate a childs body found on the beach :(

Oh - also loving Rory-from-Dr-Who as the vicar.

Which mum, youf ? I missed that!

the vicar dun it

The murber victim's mum *returnofthesmartarse' - she told the vicar she was pregnant.
AF - do you mean the vicar dun the upduffing or the murder ?

I often use the word murber instead of murder these days

the vicar dun everything

pauline quirke needs to be arrested just for being bolshy

I think that the dad was using the hut on the beach for some sort of illicit liaison, and his son found out. That would explain both lots of prints in the hut. But I don't think he killed Danny - that seems too obvious to me, and there are still 6 episodes left to go, I think.

Maybe it was whoever Danny's dad was bonking?

Really enjoying this. I like the way it's not rushing through to the finish in 3 nights, more of a slow burner.

Good acting too. Love Olivia Colman, she can do funny and serious equally well it seems. David Tennant brilliant.

Ooh interesting.. even the cast weren't told who did it until the very last minute. (That's a DM link for those bothered by DM links btw)

Olivia Coleman is BRILLIANT in "I Give It A Year" :)

Thanks, Kurri . How did I miss that?!

So Pauline Quirke looks after the keys for the beach hut and she cleans it too, or did I imagine that. Who owns it? So Danny's body was found two miles away from the hut on the beach so I think his body was dragged there in a boat, after what the psychic guy said.

I think Danny's dad is having an affair, but he isn't the murderer.

Chloe's boyfriend is a dealer, but he isn't the murderer.

We need to know who Danny was getting money from and what for, which Ellie's son blatantly knows. He is also frightened.

....or like someone else said, the vicar did it, just to pull the community back together and get the flocks back to church, or something.

Danny's dad almost certainly having a gay affair IMO

Random thoughts.....

Danny's body (hands?) had cleaning fluid on them. The hut had been thoroughly cleaned. Had Danny been involved in cleaning the hut?

His blood was found by the door of the hut - but wasn't he strangled? There was no mention of injuries, or did I miss something? So where did his blood come from .

Wish it was on more than once a week - there's too much to forget in between episodes!

What was all that about the pendant and DT's mini freak out in his hotel room then?

In the opening scene, when Danny was standing up on the cliff edge, he had blood dripping from his hand.

Obviously it's far too early for any real guesses whodunnit, but my theories so far are...

1. Danny's dad (Mark?) is having an affair

2. His wife suspects it, and that's why she thinks her pregnancy is complicated

3. Danny was delivering something dodgy for someone, possibly as part of his paper round. The postman knows about it, and they argued about something to do with that. As does Olivia Coleman's son. And that's where Danny's money came from.

Tennant and Coleman are both absolutely brilliant in this, and I'm loving how Coleman keeps having a pop at Tennant for his "moody bullshit", and when she told him he was either eating the chips or going hungry - there speaks a mum

When DT was in his hotel room there was a photo of a pretty girl in his wallet so it's probably who psychic guy was referring to and why DT is a moody git, but he is still sooooo attractive!

I think the dad is having an affair with the vicar.

I need to watch again as missed the middle part when nodded off ! I thought it was diesel dripping from Danny's hands

LizS - I need to watch again as I nodded off at the end! tried to get on itvplayer this morning, but it wasn't up yet...

It's so slow!

Not sure if it can hold my interest for another6eps.

I defo think the dad is having a gay affair.

I think Danny's dad is having affair with the postman that Danny was arguing with. Danny suspected it, had argument with postman. Postman gave him money to keep quiet.
Then on night of murder followed his dad and postie to hut. Caught them, had a scuffle, cut his hand and ran out. Postie and dad fled.
Pauline heard commotion, went to hut, seen mess, thought Danny had vandalised it, lost the rag, strangled him, dragged him away from hut onto beach make it look like he fell.
The mother is pregnant to the priest.
Danny's pal deleted messages regarding the gay affair and what they were going to spend money on.
The daughters boyfriend is a dealer with the postie and the money will be linked there somewhere
