I will miss this thread so much after next week but we will have Broadchurch to look forward to :)

The envelope left for Baptiste contained the information on Zianes real identity - Anouar Charmartin(?) who had killed his own wife.

Emily had said the wedding was off so possibly they have split up..,

forago · 10/12/2014 23:04

I still think the people whose house it was and who were supposedly on holiday should/would have been examined more closely. The woman's husband involved?

I've a feeling we're all going to be disappointed with the ending - it won't be a good as what we've all come up with.

McButtonwillow · 10/12/2014 23:34

Thank you rumbelina I don't know how I missed that.

I really hope it's not a disappointing ending.

dingit · 11/12/2014 07:07

Shows how much this is on my mind. Last night I dreamt that Sylvie has him and is bringing him up as her own. Not sure how she'd get away with that.

The hotel has a large dorma attic...I presume it was searched.

I think broken TV significant somehow, possibly as said above re the tapes.
There is definitely a link between Vincent and the Garrett's, he could be Mary's son prior to Ian or I am warming to theory Ian thought if him as a girl ie Molly to curb his desires.

SolomanDaisy · 11/12/2014 09:22

When they first showed Emily with the tablets at the sink, I thought she was pregnant. Presumably not,but she had the shape of the woman who has had a child (which the actress has). I wonder if that lingering shot of her stomach was a clue that Ollie wasn't adopted?

LilMissVixen · 11/12/2014 09:30

I thought the same thing SolomanDaisy. It could have been the camera angle but it did look like she had a bump. Another child hasn't been mentioned in either 2009 or 2014 though, and I thought she said something to Tony about them hardly ever having sex.

GeorginaWorsley · 11/12/2014 09:30

I thought exactly the same Solomon
It cut straight to scan photo of malik's baby too

EmilyGilmore · 11/12/2014 10:03

Yes, I thought Emily looked pregnant too in that scene. It was a very carefully composed shot, I think we were meant to think she was...especially with the cut to Malik's baby scan photo.

But why?

CrapBag · 11/12/2014 10:06

I'm glad i'm not the only one who picked up on Emily's 'bump'. I thought she was pregnant in 2009 but something must of happened because you never see them with another child in the future. I also thought that was what she meant about not going back to France because she thought people, would be judging her for moving on and having another baby. But then the lack of 'bump' in any other scene made me think otherwise. It was odd though, I thought that's why the lingered on that camera angle for so long.

I dont'the think Tony or Emily had anything to do with it, or Baptise. I don't believe Mark did either, I think he is being shown to look like a bad guy to throw us off the scent.

I do think Sylvie is involved/knows something and is feeding clues to Tony. Vincent surely must be significant in some way. I like the theory that Monique is Alain and Sylvie's. The mayor mentioned a neice and I think we are pretty certain that Alain and the mayor are brothers.

I like the theory of Olli witnessing something and ending up taken because of that. Being taken by paedophiles isn't a nice thought, not is the fact he's probably dead up i'my not really sure how they counderstand end it any differently without it being given a shit ending. I don'the believe iit was anything to do with adoption or anything like that. Not sure about Greg though, why introduce him? Was is purely to show Tony had a temper and make him a possible suspect in the beginning? They would have had to have a reason to make him a suspect so, perhaps the Greg potential affair with Emily and Tony beating him up was there just so they had reason to suspect Tony.

I do also think Emily's dad referring to "what we did" was the whole Greg thing and thinks it could have been revenge on Tony for the beating. It's too late to tie up everything that has been dissected on here. I think a lot is more simple than it seems and so many people are reading more into it than there is. Vincent being Molly for instance. I think Molly was Ian's daughter, she was abused, whether by him or someone in the ring and she ended up dead because of it, and that's it.

But then I didn't believe the item in the drain was a sobriety coin. I can't see how Malik would have looked at it Like it was really significant. Surely there couldn't have been that much blood on it and it could have really gone down the drain any time.

EmilyGilmore · 11/12/2014 10:11

Yes, all those meaningful looks at the AA medal. Would most people even know what it was?

dingit · 11/12/2014 10:11

Araminta, Baptiste was walking down my road! Limp and all. Not as good looking close up, sadly, and I expect when he spoke it would have been a sarf london accent Hmm

CrapBag · 11/12/2014 10:51

Exactly, I wouldn't have had a clue what it was. I would have probably thought it was a foreign coin or something. Plus they wouldn't have had a clue who it actually belonged to so can't see how it was magically significant from a glance. Unless they are all in AA and had them at sometime and the whole thing is Tony' drunken dream. That is my new theory.

iwantginsoakedXmas · 11/12/2014 11:50

Oh gosh- after reading all this my brain is fried!

I also noticed Emily's bump when she was at the sink - and then the shot straight after was the scan photo of Malik's wife.

Why ??? It did seem a deliberate shot. She's pretty slim otherwise so wouldn't have such a pronounced bump?

I do hope we aren't going to be disappointed with a limp ending now next week Xmas Grin

Perhaps we need to write our own mystery thriller!!

OttiliaVonBCup · 11/12/2014 12:21

She would not be talking all these pills if she were pregnant, would she?
Ha had half a chemists worth of pills there.

OttiliaVonBCup · 11/12/2014 12:21

she had

iwantginsoakedXmas · 11/12/2014 12:22

She may have done - in a delicate mental state?

Ohmygrood · 11/12/2014 12:33

I also noticed Emily's bump, which is why I was wondering about them not having another child.

Ohmygrood · 11/12/2014 12:35

There was also a mention of Tony's job in 2009 when he was lying on the couch among empty bottles and glasses. Emily said something about being careful or they'd let him go. Still no mention if what he actually does though.

Indianashopgirl · 11/12/2014 13:27

If this is duplicated- apologies. My post has not appeared?
My point was that ,we don't know what happened to Mark & Emily between 2009 (hand holding in hotel) and 2014 (wedding cake sampling) other than they obviously got together. Maybe she was pregnant - although she says (to Tony) that they no longer sleep together. The combination of pills and extreme stress may have caused her to lose the baby?
It's only because of the way that scene was shot. Some tablets in the basin like she had decided not to take the first lot? Plus in the hotel she threw the others away down that basin.

christmaspies · 11/12/2014 13:36

Yes. I noticed Emily's bump and wondered if she was pregnant
