VERA!!!

[Weebirdie]

Oh my goodness, what a treat. Vera!

I dont live in the UK but Ive found a way to watching live UK TV and here I am watching Vera.

Im so happy, what a perfect day, and yes its also to do with the Mr Kipling Bakewell tarts one of my sons brought me from the Uk today.

Happy Happy Happy

I even have wine. Wonderful wine that was made by my DIL's granddad in Romania and brought to me by her mum having been wrapped up really well in her suitcase.

Love Vera. Missing Joe though seems a bit 'empty' somehow without their banter and his family etc

Not sure about the new guy yet

Dh is watching some shite called 'The Eagle' so I'm having to record Vera:(
He's not even properly watching it cos he's on his iPad too!
I love Vera!

Where is Joe?

Who is this new guy?

Joe got a promotion apparently

The actor who plays him is trying to break into a film career I think

I thought they handled the transition from Joe to Aiden well. I love Vera's style. That was a complicated case though! I do miss Joe and his family stuff. Hopefully there's more to Aiden.

I love how cool all the team are? Is it really like that I wonder!

I fell asleep half way through it!

Was so looking forward to this, but found it convoluted and boring. None of the characters seemed real or likeable, and by the end I couldn't care who had done it. Hope next week's is better.

Why does she keep going backwards and forwards over the Holy Island causeway.?

Well I have to admit to falling asleep twice now whilst watching a recording of it. Mmhhhmmmmm.

ladymalfoy - obviously another local!! We laughed at the fact that she is back and forwards across the causeway both weeks - we wondered if they just made her do it again and again in different outfits on the same day so they could slot it into each episode! Maybe its meant to be on her way home??

I think the next few were much better! Anyone still watching? I love Brenda Blethyn. I agree they are quite convoluted but they do make sense so not annoying.

I'm watching.

I enjoy it!

I think that BB is fab.

I think it's really good. I like how BB is all sympathetic and understanding and at the same time so clever, sharp-eyed and no nonsense.

I love it, don't miss Joe either.

I've enjoyed this series, and I think the relationship with the new sidekick is shaping up well. It was good when she told him he'd cancelled out the death he felt responsible for by saving a life.
