Indian Summers series 2

[LunaLunaLovegood]

Is anyone watching this? I'm so scared for the horrid pregnant lady!! Argh

That was a very difficult watch. And it seems to be getting more improbable with each episode, although I know I'll keep watching till the end. Sooni has three admirers, all rather sweet. Ralph allows a small child to be put in terrible danger, and his wife to have sex with a hateful man. And what is it with Madeleine 's weird false eyelashes??

Rather a strange moment, too, when she said "My child is asleep down the corridor." Did she mean Adam?

I wondered about that. I thought maybe she was just thinking up a pretend excuse so she could have the door shut. I was hoping she was going to strangle him or something.

Felt so sad for Cynthia talking about her babies.

Madeline and Ralph have a daughter, although Ralph is possibly the bigger child

They have a daughter? How have I missed that?

It was a bit blink and you'll miss it. She's firmly off somewhere with an ayah and probably only gets trooped out once a week so she remembers what her parents look like.

I just can't remember that at all. I thought she seemed fond of Adam because she had no child of her own.

I'm sure they have a child. Maybe I hallucinated it

Anyone help? Really want to know now!

Radio Times cast list for episode 3 of series 2 has a listing for Vivienne Whelan - and this from the Mirror www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/indian-summers-sizzles-back-tv-7545737

"Besides Alice’s increasingly complex love life, her brother Ralph is now married to Madeleine – the American heiress he bedded in the first series and who turned out to be penniless. They are parents to a two-year-old daughter, Vivienne – but parenthood has failed to tame their ambitions for power."

Wow, thank you pixieg. Must have missed that completely! As you say, she must spend a lot of time with her ayah!!

Just watched it on catch up. Had to fast forward bits as it was so uncomfortable to watch!

Oooh maybe the ending will feature Vivienne. She could toddle along and pick up the gun Adam was practising with, and shoot Charlie. And Ralph. And the maharajah. And Sarah.

She could maybe just leave Alice, Aafrin, Bhupi and Sooni and 'her men' and that could make series 3 a bit better.

Or maybe she will have aged about twelve years like Sarah's son!

Clawdy Matthew has grown up quick hasn't he!

No season 3 😕😕😕

Ah, that's a shame. I have enjoyed this series less than the first (it's strayed too far into 'unbelievable' territory on more than one occasion), but I've still enjoyed it!

Yes,that is a shame. I also feel it will leave lots of untied ends, as I imagine when this series was recorded the writer was thinking there was lots more to come.

Flipping heck it was a bit tense tonight. Daft plan though- who gets a top secret rickshaw at 8? Surely you'd run off in the dead of night?!

And surely Alice would have arranged for the poor ayah to take the evening off, she might have guessed Charlie would turn on her. Tense and exciting, though, even if it was all bound to end badly.

I couldn't watch the last bit. I was so gutted Charlie caught them.

And could you BELIEVE Ralph saying to Madeleine 'maybe if you put your back into it'

The ending really upset me. Not sure I'll watch more as I felt manipulated. Surely when tortured she would give a false place and send him on a wild goose chase and say he must have been too late. Why did no one hear the ayah scream

Agree Sunday night scheduling was a mistake. Why is there nothing decent on Friday or Saturday. You have to remember to video it as no iplayer C4 version on Sony TVs too

So bets on who is going to get murdered then? I think Charlie.

I don't understand why the Ayah even knew where the room was to be honest...

Agree given she'd admitted to being asked to spy for Charlie why tell her more than "I am leaving him"
