The Disappearance

[louisagradgrind]

Anyone watching it? What do you think? Just about to watch episode four on BBC 4 and I'm really enjoying it.

That will be to solve her murder, Gypsy. You might be right but it looked like it was Lea.

A bit late to the party, I am watching it too! I didn't realise it was a french show until it started and almost flicked off. Glad I didn't as it's really good :)

I think it is her body, and she's been dead for a while. I think Romain her bf is the guilty party and I think Chris maybe pregnant!

The brother is familiar I swear I have seen him in something else I should imdb to find out what plus he is very cute

Was there not another prostitute at the park who had long blonde hair like Lea, that the dad mistook for her? Or am I imagining that?

I agree Cookie I too think that Chris is pregnant and I thought she was going to tell the BF but bottled out and asked him about the London/ England trip instead.

Yeah it's definitely her, as Pike says it tells you on the next episode description. Poor girl I think the boyfriend seems genuinely worried about her but something is off about Chris..

Loving this.. Found it accidentally but completely hooked!! It is a real traditional who done it with lots of far fetched story lines but as DS said, it's a bit like a Sherlock Holmes, far fetched but still entertaining..

There is another possible suspect but i'm not sure if it's a spoiler (though my speculation only) so i will keep quiet!
I wasn't sure it was lea, though we were obviously supposed to think so as it kept cutting back to julien and florence. I was not convinced - but seems from this thread that it was.

Why do we think chris is pregnant - i hadn't spotted any signs - though i agree it was weird to be asking romain about the school trip! Priorities, chris...
Will the detective start things up again with his ex wife or have a romance with the forensic scientist? (Desperately seeking some light relief to distract from it being lea....though of course it would be sad whoever it was)

I think Chris is pregnant just because of the way she has become possessive about Romain, also she wants to talk to him but then "makes up" something trivial when she does. She doesn't post the check now is that because she knows Lea is dead or she doesn't want to go or because she is pregnant hmmm

Romain keeps saying shit, it's bugging me so I think it's him or him and Chris or Chris. I get these things wrong all the timE though :)

Ireally who do you think it is? Pm me I am intrigued?

There's something about Cousin Chris and the photography - she showed some pictures of Lea to her Dad or someone else in the first episode, I think.

The uncle is a bit too nicey-nicey. Racing track guy is also suspicious. The waiter at the restaurant is a bit too obvious.
Hmmmmm. Can't wait for the next episode!

Ireally, speculation is the fun part of these threads so please share. I think it has something to do with the drugs and probably the racing track but at the moment they all seem like suspects to me.

What was in the parcel that Lea got in the restaurant before she went out? Were those the gloves or something else?

orange I think that was the gloves! But it is odd she would get them that way, wouldn't it be easier to get them through her instructor?

Ok will leave a space so people can avoid - but be warned, it is dull:

I'm thinking the park keeper who was talking to the police earlier - though that would be a very 'boring' solution. I agree that chris showing the photos to uncle was a 'significant event' though - and, possibly, the 50 euro birthday present from uncle? Was that a bit excessively generous, or are those amounts the norm?

Aha - you noticed as well pp, i was not imagining it then!

So perhaps he also knew jenny, and got her to leave the message.

Then of course there's boyfriend's father - nobody's paid him much attention yet.

The park keeper was very cagey with his answers, I am sure they will get back to him now they have found the body. (He probably earns some nice pocket money by looking the other way). Romain's dad looks dodgy too.

Something is definitely weird about Chris...if I was rebuffed by a bloke, I'd be a bit mortified and not keep coming back for more humiliation/rebuffing. But why do you think she's pregnant?
I think the uncle had some funny expressions (i.e. observed things in a funny way) especially towards the beginning.... makes me wonder about him.
I agree that it's probs going to end up being someone we haven't focused much on yet (e.g. driving instructor or boyfriend's dad), simply because everyone else will have been eliminated by the end of the series

Need - what photos was the uncle looking at?

sorry - just read through thread so now know which photos you're talking about (although I can't actually remember myself so taking it on trust)
