Thank goodness they used paper bags at the bakery

PirateSmile · 04/04/2016 22:12

Is Anna Friel claiming to not yet be 40? I remember her from my clubbing days and she looked older than 12 Grin

AmIbeingaBitch · 04/04/2016 22:15

40 in July.

Owllady · 04/04/2016 22:16

She's the same age as me and looks much better :(

Bringiton2016 · 04/04/2016 22:16

I thought it was great. I'm hooked, can't wait for next week. can't stop staring at her lip though

Cocolepew · 04/04/2016 22:19

Thete was an awful lot of people in it Confused

Owllady · 04/04/2016 22:22

I think I've most probably had too many children :o

Crispbutty · 04/04/2016 22:22

I'm sure she's older than 39

Rigbyroo · 04/04/2016 22:23

I couldn't believe the bakery still had bread past midday!

Owllady · 04/04/2016 22:26

And there was no little bags of live yeast on the counter and no flies

Finbar · 04/04/2016 22:32

Maybe her DH moved on due to the crime scene photos and maps all over the house

I remember her from Brookside and disliked her then. There is something vampirish about her teeth. Thought it was a bit rubbish, but will probably watch next week. Owen and Frank Foster to the fore.

If anyone if follow it please write a dummies guide to the last hour or the rest of us please!

lilydaisyrose · 04/04/2016 22:40

In the minority here but I liked it! I think I followes the story as much as possible. Thought AF was fab too.

stopfuckingshoutingatme · 04/04/2016 22:42

Lol - that's what made me wonder about whether her kids wre there !!

KERALA1 · 04/04/2016 22:45

Good - but why is everyone so aggressive with each other - unrealistic surely!? In the office everyone curt and rude, slamming doors and glaring. Never seen any English offices where people behaved like this and did a lot of temping as teenager. And anna friel was so aggressive to that witness in her house she was a witness not a suspect. Apart from this making it implausible thought was good.

pieceofpurplesky · 04/04/2016 22:56

Her reaction to him leaving her was spectacularly real / I remember not knowing what I had said to done to sbexh. Never killed him or one of the many OWs though!

LizKeen · 04/04/2016 22:58

I have already watched this over the weekend, but it only premiered tonight.

Feel like I am losing my mind.

How is that possible?

PirateSmile · 04/04/2016 23:03

It says on her wikipedia page she was born in 1976. Apparently she was 13 when she was in GBH (I saw that being filmed incidentally) which was shown in 1991. The maths doesn't add up!

lovelychops · 04/04/2016 23:40

Thank god I found this thread.
The top lip is so distracting. I just find Anna Friel so unconvincing in everything she's in.
Plus I know someone who worked with her and said she was a twat.
Don't know why I watched it really !!

lilydaisyrose · 04/04/2016 23:42

Me too LizKeen, I was confused too. I think it was available early on sky?

lilydaisyrose · 04/04/2016 23:43

What's GBH please?
