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.

It's not different. It's a misrepresentation for dramatic purposes.

( will shut up now and let you all enjoy it)

Great minds Balloons!

That bloody Skoda umbrella is already getting on my tits!!

What's the relationship between Colemans character and Joe the defendant please?

Husband and wife.

im confused :(

Ooh, just come back to this. Thanks BOF.

Oh yes, the legal system has gone a bit haywire haha. Tosh, but should be enjoyable tosh.

They are married

Having been totally hooked on The Missing, I am a bit disappointed with the first episode of Broadchurch. It's a lot of scary music but no substance. It just lacks something, hope it gets better.

I thought it was a brilliant opening episode - I was gripped! I know nothing about the justice system so shall allow some artistic licence!

Whose the wonderful barrister lady that newspaper lady knew all about and how to get into her house?

Did she feature in series 1?

Broadchurch Series One in four minutes for those who want to catch up.

Exactly my thoughts balloon

I think lee was having an affair with the 19 year old neighbour and Claire killed her & her sister.
Wonder if the police thought of digging up their lovely patio?

I thought it was brilliant too.

Why is Joe meeting Ellie's son?

I'm beginning to wonder if Joe killed Daniel!

I don't think that CPS barrister was in series 1. Is she supposed to be the local newspaper editor's sister?

Mark Latimer seems to be seeing Tom Miller secretly. Is he replacing his dead son with his best friend or plotting some awful revenge? Hopefully he's just seeing Tom because they both miss Danny.

The retired barrister was living in the village when Danny was last seen on his paper round outside her house by the postman, iirc.

I'm hooked. Fantastic cast. Can't wait for ep2

Yep, that nice new patio was very suspicious ...

Hi all... And for those of you who live where Broadchurch is filmed, I am yet again very , what a stunning setting it is... And obviously always sunny!
I love love live Charlotte Ramplinf, some class actress for the series, what is she hiding I wonder, Joe told the vicar that everyone was hiding something.
Danny's dad disturbs me, he clearly has some kind of secret and his friendship with Ellie's son seems very dodgy.... Good to have it back after the dross that was Christmas TV.

I thought it was awful. Very hammed up and DT & OC were let down by the stage school acting from the supporting cast. All very ITV unfortunately.

How many shots did we need of the West Bay cliffs FFS?

I do feel terribly sorry for Ellie. Not only has she had to cope with the fact that her husband murdered her son (Tom)'s best friend, but Tom won't live with her or speak to her, her friend Beth loathes her, she had had to leave both her home and her job and she's a single parent. Grim.
