Broadchurch series 3

[rollonthesummer]

Will anyone here be watching?!

And if I discovered a load of condoms in my husband's van, I would not be unreasonable to suspect something is amiss.

i dont think the police picked up the bag though. they wouldnt be wondering around in the dark alone.

i dont know why julie was sitting leaning against the radiator, although of course they did take her duvet, anyone else sad for her that they did that?
but i wouldnt feel comfortable with my back to the window.

I suspect it's going to be a young girls being passed around for sex storyline. Trish discovered this, threatened to go to the police and was raped.

I'm thinking also that the blood on the stone will not be hers.

Miller's reaction to her son is exactly what I would have done, especially when it came to her riposte to the teacher. Stay in charge at all times.

Very weird that there were 50 men at the party. I was expecting her to say 50: 50 men to women. Sarah Parrish didn't want to reveal that and looked more worried than concerned when she found out that Trish had been raped. Is this the reason Trish was so worried about reporting the offence?

Is the next episode tonight or next week please?

Yes, very strange that Cathy was so specific about the '50 men' - yes you'd say, 'I don't know, about half and half men and women'. Odd!

AF - we have to wait till next week, unfortunately.

Next episode is next week.

I've been mulling over the 50 men thing, trying to think of a logical reason for the imbalance, and even if birthday woman was heavily into a male-dominated hobby, surely her hobby pals would bring their partners to the party making the split roughly 50:50. Very odd.

Gah

When the friends couple said on the phone "I feel like its our fault"

You wouldnt say that if you just threw a random party with your nearest and dearest. They must be referencing either (1) sex being a known involvement (2) someone they know is a risk in attendance (3) one of them preplanned it or part pre planned it with someone.

Think I'm going to have to do my usual "watch once for drama and again for clues" trick!

I thought was natural thing to say in same way if someone had car accident on way to your party you feel even small bit responsible.

Cathy said friends then just invited anyone and given large gardens they would had no control so saying it's our fault would kind fit.

So glad Broadchurch is back. I didn't realise there was going to be a third series until someone mentioned it in passing yesterday, or I'd have missed it! Brilliant first episode, Olivia Coleman is just amazing. My in-laws live in Dorset and we go to West Bay with them quite a lot - have seen all the crew trucks etc. there a few times but never spotted anyone interesting!

The 50 men thing is definitely a bit odd. Cath's reaction wasn't quite right either - too flat.

Absolutely. Her reaction was quite fake and I remarked to DH, 'bad acting', but maybe it wasn't...

Shes quite masculine looking and my first thought was "shes a man and no one knows" but then I suppose her husband would have to

Cath I meant.

The actress played a transexual women in Corrie, so I don't think they would go there again. I agree with everyone about the party. Very odd. Glad it's a proper mystery again. Although I am a bit bored of the Latimers now. I know what they are trying to do with showing the effect of crime years later but it's done already. And I keep expecting Rory the vicar to be dodgy too, as he just turns up to have conversations all the time!

I'm another one who thinks the party is a red herring. There's probably something dodgy about it, but unrelated to the rape.
When did David Tennant acquire a daughter?

It seemed odd that all the bedding they removed looked clean and unsoiled. But when Cath was found she was muddy and dirty, so it doesn't look as if she slept in that bed.

Yeah did she just lie on the bed for 3 days. Why didn't she have a shower? How did she end up in a completely different place to report rape? Why was her phone left at home? I think maybe she was actually abducted.

can't wait for the next episode, they've managed to bring back the same suspense as the first series, so I'm not buying the husband with the condoms in the car, but he's definitely up to something.. David tenants daughter was mentioned in the first he spoke about her but said he didn't see her or something like that.

I love how many questions and queries theyve managed to generate in one hour.
