As it says really - the old thread is nearly full, so here's a continuation for those of us watching on C4 on Sundays. Please, no spoilers - not even vague ones!

If you've watched the whole if season one already, there's a naughty corner another thread over there -->

Help! Ep 4 is not on 4od catch up! Help, what can I do?

ThePskettiIncident · 01/07/2013 20:42

You know the title sequence shows all the returned? Can someone tell me who the couple snogging on the grass next to the two graves are? I thought it was Simon and Adele at first, but you see Simon later and no one else is repeated.

Is there a clue there?

BoreOfWhabylon · 01/07/2013 20:44

Bumpstarter I think they are on YouTube, there was a link on the previous thread. Be warned though, ALL the episodes are there and some have already watched them all!

PacificDogwood · 01/07/2013 21:55

Okaaaay.

You guys have pretty much discussed everything that I came up with last night.
I think Pierre 'collects' Revenants Hmm.
Serge is NOT attacking Lena.
The wound on her back is necrotic. When she was shouting at Camille to say 'who she was', did she mean to admit that she was Lena?? That they had swapped places on the day of the bus crash? Or just to stop using the persona of cousin Alice Confused?
Chloe is just as spooky as Victor. Poor Victor Sad.
I think the shooting of all the people in the house was some kind of act of revenge or silencing everybody; not just a break-in gone wrong.

People I demand to get their comeuppance tout de suites:
Thomas - nasty control freak
Serge - for obvious reasons
Pierre - for obvious reasons
Simon - for horrible forcing-himself-on-Adele. Bastard.

This series is inhabiting FAR too much of my brain space...

OK so I followed Sunshine's link to the Canal+ website when I should have been finishing off something for work. It is SERIOUSLY CREEPY.

Has anyone else done it - gone around the various locations to find reports etc? I need to know whether I found everything there is to read - but I did not read the synopsis in case it gave too much away .

Ooh, I just watched ep4 - I think Pierre definitely is the first burglar, I recognised his eyes thinking they were someone familiar and he sounded like him. He is definitely For It. I initially thought the house Victor was in was Mr Costas house, it looked like the view when the house was burning - but I don't think Victors mother is Mrs Costa, as she was in the helping hands and Victor didn't acknowledge her, although I think she knows he is like her.

Very odd about Chloe drawing her father - she must have overheard, they were directly below her talking about it. How does Adele not realise that Thomas saw them having sex, she knows the cameras are there?

The opening scene with Victor made me well up, also maybe he doesn't talk now as Pierre said 'he's just a kid, he won't talk'. Also the second burglar was older, more heavyset. Maybe a relation of Serge and Toni?

Serge definitely kills Lena - he was lunging in for the kill - but then she revenants and comes back, yukky wound and all.....

perplexedpirate · 01/07/2013 23:43

You know when Chloe drew Simon being shot? Did we actually see that the hand holding the gun was Simon's own?
I can't remember.

SunshineBossaNova · 02/07/2013 00:00

teejwood I read the character descriptions but haven't done the tour of the town... yet.

teejwood · 02/07/2013 00:07

Sunshine - the tour is utterly engrossing - your jaw drops with every new discovery and yet I don't think it's spoilery because you still are left with no bloody idea what's actually going on!
Eg there is an account of Julie's attack that makes you see more than one person in a whole new light Shock

Bumpstarter - DH watched it on 4od last night. Try again maybe - it is there Smile

susiedaisy · 02/07/2013 06:58

Pierre prob guessed victor was a child because he was in a kids bedroom, also wetting himself is more of a child like thing to do??

teejwood · 02/07/2013 07:37

Nadia the tour is all in French, I'm afraid.

Alpine the tour does not tell you anything about any of the other characters - you see the main characters and you can read their mini bios, but there is not a huge amount of detail. Then at various locations there are documents you can find and read. I found

  • a newspaper report
  • a psychological report on Julie
  • a letter to Lucy
  • extracts from Serge's diary Shock
And each one freaked me out even more than the last!!
aliasjoey · 02/07/2013 09:42

black well Toni looked slightly surpised but not as astonished and bemused as I?d have expected. I mean, if your brother was a serial-killer and you murdered him (eg. with a shovel or spade) dug a grave AND buried him 7 years ago. And then you heard that a girl had been attacked in a similar way, what would you do?

a) Think, oh dear there must be a copycat killer about, they really ought to put CCTV in that underpass

OR

b) Go straight up to your brothers old hut on the off-chance that he had come back from the dead?

When I started secondary school half of us learnt french and half german. I ended up in the german group and have never been more cross about this than i am now. I want to read the stuff on the website!!!

juneau · 02/07/2013 10:02

I don't think we know Toni killed Serge - I certainly don't remember it, if so. Toni was absolutely terrified when Serge reappeared though - he whacked him over the head with a shovel.

So are/were Lena and Camille identical twins? I've been assuming they were.

aliasjoey · 02/07/2013 10:16

eighty I thought Toni killed Serge, but can't remember for sure.

unless (I may be overthinking this) Toni is the serial-killer, and he murdered Serge who was on to him...?!

juneau yes Lena and Camille are/were identical twins.

teejwood · 02/07/2013 11:17

We have assumed that Toni killed Serge to stop him, but we don't know that for a fact. Next ep is Toni & Serge, isn't it? Guess we may find out then?

RiotsNotDiets · 02/07/2013 11:38

teej, I am enlisting the aid of google translate. Where do you find these docs?

RiotsNotDiets · 02/07/2013 11:48

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!! Juicy gossip in that report on the website. Can we discuss the website here or no?

teejwood · 02/07/2013 11:52

Grin it's just too tempting Riots!
OK - you need to look around the bus stop, the pub, Toni & Serge's homestead and in the church to find the documents I have mentioned. Not saying exactly where or what is where as looking around is part of the journey! All I will say is go carefully and be ready for a few surprises en route - I nearly jumped out my skin more than once Wink Oh, and you might need to mind your head at one point
Bon courage et bonne chance!

teejwood · 02/07/2013 11:53

Bus stop one?
