For those who loved it last time, will you watch after the let down of the ending? (Well I felt it was a let down, don't think there was a proper conclusion at all and still room for doubts as to whether he was still alive or not).

I loved it though and will definitely be watching the next series. I've seen the trailer and it looks very very good. Julian (think that was his name) is still in it. Looks like it is based on JayCee Dugard/Elizabeth Fritz type cases where they have gone missing as children and reappeared years later.

Cannot wait!

The but he seemed genuinely confused that he was charged... surprised he was act found guilty - Alice sorry, assume whole thing set up.

Rolocookies · 26/10/2016 21:59

The one in the blue or red is Alice? I'm so confused.

McButtonwillow · 26/10/2016 22:00

I don't think dementia man has dementia at all and he was the abductor not butcher guy.

TheSpottedZebra · 26/10/2016 22:00

Blue I think. although I thought it was a bloke

Rolocookies · 26/10/2016 22:02

I also thought it was a man in blue. Looked scary looking.

FabulouslyGlamourousFerret · 26/10/2016 22:03

So where is Alice? Brigadier with dementia defo was the abductor, yes the one in blue was the real Alice and yes, I thought it was a chap too!!

MiddleClassProblem · 26/10/2016 22:04

Totally thought it was a guy 😂

FabulouslyGlamourousFerret · 26/10/2016 22:04

... and what happened to butchers wife? I had to close my eyes!! #wuss

mikado1 · 26/10/2016 22:04

Agreed, blue, looks like boy.

Not 100% on dementia but thought he was giving himself away earlier 're beAutiful girl so maybe comes in and out of it. Agree he did it or covered it up. That gave me the heebeegeebees.

MiddleClassProblem · 26/10/2016 22:05

So Sam's cry for help that army guy is talking about is clearly not the fire.

And now we know why no dna done on that girl

Rolocookies · 26/10/2016 22:05

Right, when is some genius going to come on here and explain it all to us? Please?

MiddleClassProblem · 26/10/2016 22:06

Butcher's wife should have cleaned out her mincing machine and customers were angry that the standards had dropped since hertz in prison so attack her lol

But we know he didn't do now don't we

HarryPottersMagicWand · 26/10/2016 22:06

Wow that was good! Scary though. Wtf did they do to the butchers wife! Clearly something as she had false teeth in the present day.

Alice is the one in the blue top. Sophie was next to her and is the one who came back saying she was Alice.

Oh and good call on posters noticing Sophie looked pregnant. 'Alice' did have a baby, Sophie was already pregnant when they took her. So when she came back they could tell she had given birth. Guessing the suicide is because she knows she has been found out. She understood Julien when he spoke French to her.

So Henry Reed was paying money to someone and Daniel said it was sick. I wonder if it was trafficking of some sort and the baby girl didn't die?

I wonder if 'Alice' said sorry to Mr Hertz because she identified him and put him in prison but she knew he didn't really do it?

Oooooooh cliff hanger!
So where's Alice then?

SlipperyJack · 26/10/2016 22:08

mikado, dementia sufferers do have good days, bad days, come in and out. I think that so far, Roger Allam (love him as an actor) is giving a superb rendition of dementia.

pennygoodlife · 26/10/2016 22:12

Defo think the colonel chap was the abductor because of what he said the Alice/Sophie in the garden..not sure why he's acting that way now...

No idea why baptiste has gone to find Daniel/Alice or whatever... can someone help me here?

HarryPottersMagicWand · 26/10/2016 22:14

To sum up.

Alice is indeed Sophie. Sophie looked pregnant when they took her and she had a baby girl who she said died.

Julien spoke french to her and she understood. Gemma also doesn't think it is her daughter. Sophie then leaves and gets petrol. Her brother locks her in the shed and she sets alight to it. The dad tries to save her and that is how he got burned.

The promise was Sophie wanted to tell Mr Hertz, the butcher who is in prison in the present day, that she was sorry.

Butchers wife is Aldie woman and has false teeth. She was attacked in 2014.

Daniel Reed said he found money being paid to someone by his dad and what it was for made him sick.

Julien said Henry Reed didn't kill himself.

Brigadier talked about a beautiful girl with place skin, this must have been Alice or Sophie. I reckon he does have dementia and will give some stuff away but will probably put down to his illness and not taken seriously. He was definitely involved.

Yellow van is in the woods in Switzerland, now spray painted red.

Gemma has found the roller coaster picture. It is Alice in a blue top (yes I thought it looked like a boy/man too) and Sophie who is the one who returned.

Sophie also gave it away when she referred to Gemma by name. Alice would have called her mum.

Sam did something that was a cry for help, not related to the fire.

Gemma knows Sam is having an affair with the brigadier daughter.

Wonder if brigadiers daughters baby ends up involved?

Yes SlipperyJack that's what I thought.

Agree yes, she was apologizing for falsely accusing, why? Can't see how Baptiste finding out would make her kill herself or are we thinking father was abuser so didn't want to return to him?

Would the hospital not have any bloods record following op?

HarryPottersMagicWand · 26/10/2016 22:15

pale skin

mikado1 · 26/10/2016 22:16

Sounds like Sam also did something to Matthew following the fire..

Rolocookies · 26/10/2016 22:19

Thank you HarryPotter Grin

HarryPottersMagicWand · 26/10/2016 22:20

Well Baptiste originally pointed the finger at Sophie's father which is why her mother killed herself. I wonder if he got her pregnant?

But why would Sophie pretend to be Alice? And is Alice really dead now? Seeing the abductors are around, it's unlikely they are still going to her and Sophie kept saying how starved she was. I think she may have been dead before Sophie escaped. Once Julien was on to her, and she knows Gemma was doubting her too, she knew she wouldn't be able to keep up the charade. But not sure why she would kill herself.

Bloods from her operation may not mean anything if they didn't have original DNA to compare it. I don't know DCs blood type and only found mine out when I was an adult.

But who is it that's burned in the shed? It's just a blackened body. Just a thought.

HarryPottersMagicWand · 26/10/2016 22:23

Yes, Matthew hasn't forgiven Sam about something. Maybe he thinks Sam should have saved his sister, who I'm guessing no one accepts she wasn't Alice and that's why Gemma has been looking through the roller coaster pictures on the quiet.

GreenGinger2 · 26/10/2016 22:24

Wonder if it was the baby who she was referring to as regards starving and once she realised it would be dead she killed herself.
