There is an extra cast member who appears in the Radio Times guide to S3 - who has been in it previously but not so far in this series. won't say who though.

findingmyfeet12 · 20/03/2017 17:59

Ooh could it be Pauline Quirke or her son?

NapQueen · 20/03/2017 18:32

Nige! Nige isnt back yet is he?

iklboo · 20/03/2017 18:41

I've just looked at the cast list on IMDB. Most of them have lovely, moody head shots. Charlie Higson's is obviously a scan from A Fast Show DVD where he's dressed as Swiss Tony. Lenny Henry's is priceless Grin

Is Nigel the shaved headed guy who was Pauline quirk's son in series 1?

Problem we have is that so much can, and will, change in the 5 whole episodes remaining!

Right, my latest thinking:

There are several interwoven sub-plot strands, to bamboozle us with overlapping red herrings. Mostly hingeing on RL illicit sex, and an online porn ring. Maybe covertly-taken, amateur footage, and some featuring Broadchurch locals?

Supplying the films to subscribers could well be Arrogant Rope Boy's money-making sideline; he has tech expertise and said "fishing net business was going down the toilet" to Hardy.
Think the teens' phone porn was not Trish's rape.

Trish bi, perhaps? Not an issue in many places, but more controversial in small community Broadchurch. Also probably not keen for her daughter to know.
Thus her (so far) refusal to disclose her Saturday morning lover (female) for Hardy & Miller.

My guess is that one (or both?) of the Atwoods have been having sexual fling with her. Either she was sleeping with one of them, and the other spouse found out...(Trish, though, remaining unaware of that discovery. Hence innocently attended party).

Or she was simultaneously sleeping with both Atwoods (separately!!), and each found out about their spouse...(Trish again unaware of the discovery and still attending party).

One took ballistic, vicious revenge on Trish, for her perceived 'cheating' (and abuse of friendship, if Cath)...attempting to frame their 'cheating' spouse in the process.

(Much more complicated for Cath to exact punishment by rape, but not unheard of: a woman being responsible would definitely be the last possible deduction anyone would come to, as well as really making viewers question any firmly-held views, which series 3 is doing so well.
Does make her so-called sympathy act towards Trish particularly grim, though, so unlikely Confused).

I suppose if Trish was knocked unconscious, then concussed and traumatised afterwards, she might not have recognised the intimately-known familiarity of attacker, or dismissed it as impossible...

I was wondering if perhaps the person that Trish slept with was underage (hence the refusal to reveal). So maybe the video that the boys were watching is of Trish having sex with one of their friends.

Love Broadchurch!!

Graphista - just saw it on my TV guide app on my phone.

Graphista · 20/03/2017 21:11

Says same on my guide I looked before it started.

Bloody hell that's a brave thing for Trish to do!

3catsandcounting · 20/03/2017 21:13

Looked to be a fair amount of women at the party?! Wasn't obviously more men.

littlejeopardy · 20/03/2017 21:14

The more I see of Trish the more I like her. Loved her little piss off look she gave to her ex at the party.

Hard to watch her revisit the spot.

NapQueen · 20/03/2017 21:16

Hm...light. from a phone filming it all?

ScrambledSmegs · 20/03/2017 21:20

Ooh, Peep Show reunion! It's Gerrard!

If Super Hans pops up I'm going to be far too distracted to take this seriously.

3catsandcounting · 20/03/2017 21:28

Cath's trying to frame husband now, isn't she?

littlejeopardy · 20/03/2017 21:29

Yeah, I think the light was for filming purposes too.

My guess right now is that it is the taxi driver's step son.. because he is the most unlikely.

ScrambledSmegs · 20/03/2017 21:29

Not very subtly though, considering she's just described her marriage as loveless!

CoolCarrie · 20/03/2017 21:29

Sarah Parish's teeth are distracting me, she has had them bleached & else done to them. Wonder how she & DT get on after being a couple a few years ago?

Graphista · 20/03/2017 21:30

Yea I don't think it's Jim that's a pissed off wife speaking.

Looks like Ian has fucked up somehow, we thinking spyware on laptop? Key logger?

Elsewhere people will say 'far fetched' but I've seen mners say they've had this happen to them and know of a case irl too.

CoolCarrie · 20/03/2017 21:32

That guy from Horrible Histories is the new suspect

LIZS · 20/03/2017 21:36

Oh no, it can't be Jim Howick!

Ebb · 20/03/2017 21:51

I think Trish slept with Jim on the Saturday morning. Kath found out and plotted revenge by getting someone - possibly Leo or Ian - to rape her. DS Hardy's daughter slept with one of the lads, possibly Miller's son, it was filmed and that's what the boys were watching.

NapQueen · 20/03/2017 22:01

So thats the sat am bunk up part solved

MrsGuyOfGisbo · 20/03/2017 22:03

Well done those who figured that out ahead! And return of Nige.

3catsandcounting · 20/03/2017 22:08

LIZS - was Jim Howick 'Artois'?
