Has just finished. Don't know what to think. I feel a bit let down, but I don't know why.

MrsSJG · 18/12/2013 22:15

yeah same it just ended to abruptly for my liking, leaving too many unanswered questions

The Peleton thing was a bit confusing but I found it gripping,moving and brilliantly acted,especially Stephen Dillane. Cannot believe The Bridge was any better.

hillyhilly · 18/12/2013 22:19

Just finished it, most gripping thing we have watched in a VERY long time. Loved it.

GypsyFloss · 19/12/2013 06:50

Not seen it yet, will watch it tonight .

somersethouse · 19/12/2013 19:27

When everyone has finished watching it, can someone tell me what they think happened as I am none the wiser this evening.

TIA

GypsyFloss · 19/12/2013 19:56

Just watched it. Think I've got my head around it but not sure quite why TT went to all that bother before. Surely he could have just gone straight for Karl and Adam?

somersethouse · 19/12/2013 20:09

Do not read ahead if you have not watched it.

Gypsy is Adam dead? What was the business of him being in hospital.
I was not impressed by the ending. But loved watching it over all!
Agree, why not just go straight for Adam...

The Bridge was infinitely better IMO.

The characters were laughable copies in The Tunnel.

GypsyFloss · 19/12/2013 21:32

Yes I do think he was dead. I am glad we didn't see him being tortured or mutilated even if it has increased the confusion somewhat.

diddl does The Bridge have the same character as Elise? I thought she was wonderfully portrayed .

diddl · 19/12/2013 21:47

Yes.
When I say The Bridge, I mean the Danish/Swedish one.
The Tunnel is a copy.

So the female detective is Swedish, methodical,unemotional.

The male is Danish, scruffy-just had a vasectomy.

The first ep-I didn't get any further-was just about a word for word copy!

GypsyFloss · 19/12/2013 21:53

I notice there's been a couple of series of The Bridge, I wonder if they will do a second one of The Tunnel?

diddl · 19/12/2013 22:07

The second series of TB starts in Jan, I think.

BBC 3 or 4.

GypsyFloss · 20/12/2013 08:03

Ok so I can catch up on series one of The Bridge and be all set for the next one.

diddl · 20/12/2013 08:11

Hope you enjoy it!

Of course it could happen that having seen The Tunnel first, this one might come across as a copy of that for you.

Have you seen the American one?

Wondered if that is worth a go?

GypsyFloss · 20/12/2013 08:24

No I haven't. I only saw that there was an American one yesterday when googling for info on the original.

aoife24 · 21/12/2013 01:59

I also preferred it to the Danish/Swedish one. I thought Elise was more realistically portrayed, not as cartoonish as Sara and I love Stephen Dillane, he is so understated.
