Back next week on Sky Atlantic.

Loved series 1 apart from rubbish ending and so many loose ends.

Do you think there are clues in series one that went over our heads

Tempted to watch it again Blush

EachandEveryone · 30/11/2015 20:59

In that interview the writer was talking as if there are another few seasons left in it. I don't know how that will work

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/11/2015 22:39

disturbed im not sure i can cope re watching s1 again Grin

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 30/11/2015 22:58

Yes I've been thinking of watching the first series again too. But I'm not sure that I can cope with that either.

EnthusiasmDisturbed · 30/11/2015 23:00

I haven't got the time blatant lie

I found some of s1 very emotional and would end up sobbing Sad

I am sure there are some clues. I hope there is at least a series three

EnthusiasmDisturbed · 02/12/2015 20:53

not long to wait Grin

Who is that uppity gatecrashing slaag?

MistyBells · 02/12/2015 21:39

I have just watched episode 9, is anyone else that far along now?

oneowlgirl · 02/12/2015 21:48

No - it's only episode 7 here in the UK.

Just started watching tonight's - not going to see Alison's perspective on the sex scene by the tree.

Poor Helen - putting up with Noah & supporting him for all those years & then Alison is the one who ends up with the version of him that actually is successful! FUCKER!!

MistyBells · 02/12/2015 22:01

Thanks One, I'm UK too but have watched ahead so forget where others are up to.

Helen is so much better off without this version of Noah, I really loathe him now. What also pissed me off is when she said she was happy to have two kids but he pushed for four. Then has an affair and leaves! Dick face.

oneowlgirl · 02/12/2015 22:05

I'd love to be able to watch ahead Misty!!

I'm halfway through episode 7 right now so just watched the Thanksgiving table scene - interesting when they're arguing over their differing recollections!

oneowlgirl · 02/12/2015 22:07

I guess I'm very mean, but I enjoy seeing Noah & Alison fight & hope he cheats on her too.

FawnDrench · 02/12/2015 22:18

All sorts of developments tonight, I thought it was mostly great (apart from shithead Noah and his usual me me me)

So who was that at the end with Alison?
I don't think it was Cole, was it Scotty?
Presumably that scene was at Cole's wedding.

What do you think?

SeasonalVag · 02/12/2015 22:30

I thought it was Scotty

oneowlgirl · 02/12/2015 23:01

It was definitely Scotty. I wondered if his comment about the baby was re it being Cole's baby ie a Lockhart baby hence referring to the baby as 'ours'. Great episode!

FawnDrench · 02/12/2015 23:32

Oooh good point oneowlgirl, never thought of that interpretation.

The only time I can think of the 2 of them together in the pregnancy time frame was after Scotty went to their house and accused Cole of "shagging" Luisa, and then Alison appeared with a towel round her and Scotty was very surprised to see her it seemed.
We don't know what happened after that.

theshitestuff · 03/12/2015 00:21

I agree Fawn!

MistyBells · 03/12/2015 06:34

I watch on an app called 'videomix' oneowlgirl on my tablet.

Yes I think he meant 'ours" as in the Lockharts.

I actually want the baby to be Cole's!

MarkRuffaloCrumble · 03/12/2015 13:12

Enthusiasm, I'm definitely noticing things on re-watching series 1 that would have passed me by first time around. Well worth a second view - with all the jumping back and forth time-wise it doesn't even really matter that I'm watching both series at the same time!

murphys · 03/12/2015 14:28

Oh Finally!!! You are on episode 7 now..... I have had to bite my tongue for weeks now Grin.

So are we in agreement that was Scotty at the end of the video?

I am on episode 9 now Misty, although believe it or not I fell asleep half way through it last night... Not that it was boring, but I was hellish tired Wink

Will go catch up now.

viioletsarentblue · 03/12/2015 14:50

Aw, poor ole Alison.
I'm only halfway through the latest episode, but so far, it looks as if
she's getting a taste of what life was like for Helen when their affair was going on.
i.e. a partner who is mentally and emotionally absent and can't wait to be somewhere else.,

It's good that the writers are injecting some realism into the series and are showing what happens when cheats get together and how it's not always plain sailing.

EnthusiasmDisturbed · 03/12/2015 15:10

Thanks MarkRuffaloCrumble I think I shall watch it again

I have not yet watched last nights episode my now TV wasn't working kept freezing thankfully fine now looking forward to watching it later

gingercat12 · 03/12/2015 18:28

I thought Scotty saying "The baby is ours" is a reference to the Lockharts being cursed and their babies dying. I think he just meant the baby is a Lockhart.

It is obviously Cole's baby and Alison, just like her mother did, is doing the best she can for the baby by marrying a famous writer living in a posh neighbourhood.

Why was adultery reported in the paper a problem? I thought everyone knew what went on who read the book.

theshitestuff · 03/12/2015 19:04

I don't think the adultery being mentioned is a problem - but alison doesn't want it explored for $$$$

EachandEveryone · 03/12/2015 19:58

Yes it was Scotty I've just this minute watched it. And I guess he knows when he saw Alison and Cole together and put two and two together. I really enjoyed tonight. I'm with her mother on the house front can't believe she sold it really.
