MNPD assemble! It's Broadchurch time

[EauRouge]

Notebooks at the ready We should have enough information at the end of the first episode to start cooking up some slightly implausible theories.

Has it been explained why miller doesn't look after her kids anymore?

Ollie is the journo.

Oooo it's a bit better this week.
But now we know who did it. It's just going to be frustrating until dt find out and prove it.

I think in the first episode she said Tom wouldn't see her don't know about the toddler tho

So sandbrook dad was shagging around (but sandbrook mum failed to mention this at the time) and the y all have dc Dave for letting Lee get away. But sandbrook dad actually did it?
Caravan quirke now has nine months to live so has decided to fess up to how they got mixed up in rtf he murder, but it doesn't look like they killed him.

Hmmmm. So I can see we are now supposed to suspect Ricky for the Sandbrook murder. Certainly he is shifty and then there's the bluebells and the fact he didn't want the investigation reopened. But what could his motive be?

So who is meant to be looking after Tom? this has bugged me (and my mum) through the whole of the second series. Surely if you discovered your husband had murdered your sons friend you would, you know, want to make sure he was being well looked after!

So are we thinking Claire and the girls dad murdered them and covered it up, the psycho husband also in on it somewhere along the line....

The gaping plot holes are getting a bit tiresome, aren't they? So the defendant beat someone up in broad daylight in front of loads of witnesses in a supermarket car park and no one knew? So key witnesses in the first case weren't where they said they were and no one thinks it's relevant? So one key witness, a sister of a policewoman, thinks it's clever and helpful to change her story and allege that the police couldn't be bothered to follow up her witness statement? What the hell?

Coconutty I was trying to remember what we knew from series 1 as well. I think we knew that PQ had seen a man carrying Danny's body onto the beach. She thought it was Nige, but he and Joe look very alike...

I think Claire and Ricky did it.
Quirke? I don't get her, she dying wants to be friends with her son. But then turns her ogg out in court and says he dragged the body on the beach.,because he doesn't like her?

It's twitter, not Facebook! ollie has been live tweeting the trial (even though the witnesses aren't allowed to know what's been said??)

Yes PQ assumed it was Nige as his dad was a murdering type and she was all "grrr
..bad blood" but we have to assume it was actually Joe...They do look alike! Doesn't explain why the heck she's telling the court this tho...

She turned on her son to get back at him for saying she is not his family.

Please remind me people, what happened with PQ and Joe, was he forcibly adopted or something?

Also please tell me what Sandbrook dad has been in before, its bugging me!

Yeah but you got 9 months to make amence with your son, and to win him over she tells the court that?

So what's the significance of all the fence posts - grave marking?

Susan turned Nigel in because she thinks he has his dads bad genes. nigel was adopted because social services thought she was an unfit mother. She feels guilt for not knowing that her husband was abusing her eldest daughter and then went on to kill her (I think).
