The Fall

[hollyisalovelyname]

Watched it last night. Tis good, but disturbing. Gillian Anderson very good. Jamie Dornan scary. Anyone else see it?

I decided to stick with BBC - so even if I wanted to tell you I couldn't

As nail biting as ever!!!

'As for GA being cold, she has shown respect and compassion with the victims and their families, she's doing a really important job and she won't take any shit.'

I agree with this. If the character was a man I don't think anyone would be calling him cold.

Can't WAIT until tonight.

gosh, i thought it was manipulative garbage from the off. had to watch all five eps for work, am knocked out by the critical and audience response to this, would never have predicted it.

Really looking forward to tonight's episode. Fearful for Annie though - the pattern of episodes has been tense-violent-tense so we're due a violent one...

The cup of tea was the scariest thing ever. How would you feel when you found that the next day and KNEW it wasn't you who'd moved it? Jesus.

well, off the top of my head would it make you a. move out? b. get a burglar alarm fitted? c. at least make sure the locks were changed on BOTH DOORS? d. get a fucking BURGLAR ALARM FITTED?

i also liked the idea that GA could be 'a good judge of character' based on having seen a beaky gent put on a leather jacket in slow motion.

honestly, this is the stoopidest programme ever. i am shocked at you lot.

please also observe Frankie for 'things not to do when someone breaks into your house'.

Well. That was brutal.

That was just so so scary and good! Bloody hell. My guess is his wife arrives home at a funny time, so she's not in bed when he gets home

There is way too much about this show which is dumb. I mean, I love GA but fgs - does no one apart from her character think?

very very hard watching

My DP came through the room during the attack scene on the girl at the end. He said "is this what you watch?" And then "do they show all that? It's totally unnecessary" and then walked off disgusted.

I breathed a big sigh of relief when she came in with a boyfriend. I really thought she would be safe. Shocking that he still attacked her.

I knew him pursuing this victim would be his downfall as it went wrong from the beginning.

And why did that interview about the student who woke up to being strangled remind me of some of the things I've read on MN?

I think the paper the daughter drew on must come from his notebook.

I really thought she'd be safe when she came home with someone.

alpinemeadow I think the paper from the office, the same one he used to write that letter. He has put that drawing in his bedside drawer and most likely forgotten about it. So, even if he gets rid of the rest of the paper, forensics will find this one.

*his office

I thought the boyfriend coming back to attack him would scare him off and they would have witnesses to what he looked like.

On the drawing - I think when they analyse his letter they will find some sort of indentation from where his daughter drew on the piece of paper on top of the one he wrote on iykwim

Also interesting about the mum/nurses comment on the baby that died- 'we can wash, dress and take some photos'

He is sloppy. Should have got out when she got home with he guy

They notified GA pretty quick didn't they? The double killing would not have been something that would be flagged up for surely?

did he also wash his wife?
When she got in the tub, or was he just sitting there?
