I watched the first episode this evening, an enjoyable bit of froth noir with Iain Glen, Emilia Fox and Dawn French playing very against type as a foxy ex wife. Has anyone else seen it?

*liking not lining!

diddl · 08/01/2017 17:59

I'm enjoying it.

Would the vicar have taken instructions re the funeral from the ex wife though?

I did chuckle when Gina got the hotel after Sam had told her that Leo had left her everything.

Are they going to have to work together for Sam to pay her debts & Gina make the business work?

Sheila Hancock pisses me off-don't know why!

They ALL piss me off! They are getting their come uppances though. diddl, the skinny daughter had just commented to the thinks he's God's gift son about money. Now she has more than him.

On planner. Is it any good. Have 2 episodes to watch?

TheRealKimmySchmidt63 · 10/01/2017 23:17

Felt a bit let down but so many good actors/actresses in it I feel compelled to watch Shock
Agreed found it rather spooky how similar vinette robinsons role is to the one she played in a is for autism

youngestisapsycho · 11/01/2017 12:35

I'm loving listening to Iain Glen's voice.....

Oblomov16 · 11/01/2017 18:27

Not really liking it. Dh says it's ok.

oldmum22 · 13/01/2017 08:02

Am I right in thinking it would be incest half brother/half sister relationship if pursued? Fantastic scenery, where about is it filmed? Dawn French is playing her character very well .

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 13/01/2017 10:07

Of course!

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/01/2017 21:30

Anyone still watching?

WonderMike · 14/01/2017 21:37

I had an idea that perhaps Iain Glenn wasn't actually the father of his son, which is why it's not biological incest..... It's all a tad boring though now really.

msrisotto · 14/01/2017 23:56

Yes it's incest if they have a parent in common. I reckon he's not her dad though.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 15/01/2017 00:03

It was great this week! I'm hookedSmile

msrisotto · 15/01/2017 08:59

Yeah, I like it. Wish it was more than just a mini series.

Blondeshavemorefun · 15/01/2017 10:10

I'm hoping one of them cheated and he isn't the dad

I've heard of people meeting siblings after years of not seeing each other and having feelings

But surely wouldn't if saw half sister regularly

Surely an autopsy would have been ordered and blood etc and tablets would have shown up

So we see the mitchelen man try and kill his self and survive and dad take a few pulls and didn't

Blondeshavemorefun · 15/01/2017 10:10

Pills 😳

midsomermurderess · 15/01/2017 16:51

I'm still enjoying it. I don't really understand when people say that no one is likeable, in tv series, books etc, quite often they're not meant to be.

Is the daughter going to turn out to be the biker chaps?

Callmesausage · 15/01/2017 19:19

Diddl - yes, I think so

diddl · 15/01/2017 19:25

I'm kind of hoping so otherwise I think that the brother & sister thing is too much.

Well it is a bit too much as as far as they are concerned atm, they have the same father!

Might explain the comment that the daughter heard the father make re "there, I took her" or some such, if he had an idea.

cheapskatemum · 15/01/2017 19:52

Somehow, despite watching from the beginning, I'd missed the fact that both his children were the same age, 18. No wonder the Dawn French character is so vengeful!

oldmum22 it's Cornwall.

midsomermurdress I rarely find characters wholly unlikable though, they usually have some redeeming features. The one I like most in this is the skinny daughter others find irritating.

diddl · 15/01/2017 21:18

I thought that the sister was older.

But even if she is he must have left when the girl was very young.

Lordofmyflies · 20/01/2017 22:00

It was filmed in our village, which looks amazing on the TV! In reality is is often grey and misty from the tamar river!
The restaurant is a local private house called Pentille Castle which is a local wedding venue. The other locations were cargreen, calstock along the tamar valley.

cushioncovers · 21/01/2017 13:19

Watching second episode now and I'm enjoying it as much for the scenery and sun as anything else

msrisotto · 21/01/2017 15:25

I really enjoyed this mini series. The characters were 3 dimensional. They left it wide open for a second.
