The Replacement - BBC1

[southeastdweller]

Anyone else planning on watching this three-parter that starts tonight at 9?

I thought this was great until the nutter bereaved mother kidnapping babies trope, plus the macgyver shit and everything being rolled up neatly within the last ten seconds with everyone just believing Ellen now. Disappointed as it had such promise. Thank goodness Line of Duty is back very soon.

Wtf was that ending with Dougray coming down the stairs?

Oh dear. That had such promise...

Disappointed with the ending. I think some of the ideas which people came up with further up the thread were far better.

Well that was all a bit pants

that was the lamest crappest ending ever, what a waste of time. They actually manage to miss out the anticlimax!

Ha. Just had to come on and see if any of you understood the ending. Thought I was just being stupid. What a waste of time. Could have been so good but the ending was awful!

At least she didnt get back with that cheeky twat Ian!
Shit ending though.

Did she have 2 DCs with her by the headstone and 1 of them was David's because she got rid of Ian?

Yep, stay at home with your babies, mums, or just look what will happen!

Great message there.

It seems like they did three hours of programming but squeezed the ending down to the last 2 mins which was really silly. More should have been said about how Paula came to being arrested. Grrr

Well what a load of shite that ending was!

What a disappointment!

What happened with the blue viagra pills?

So she finally learned her lesson and became a stay at home mum

And is Vernon the library master or summat? I get that he was the client who commissioned it, but surely he's not still hanging around there two years later?

Is the Dougray character Lia's Father after all? She said no to the paternity test. I presumed because Ian is a twat, but now wondering if that's meant to be the twist.

Oh dear :( Very poor ending.

Yes, us working parents are shit parents after all, and don't actually care for our children, and should let someone else be mum.

And Ellen listened. Wasn't she good.

LOL at Vernon the library master!,

Found it hard to watch. Am pleased I wasn't the only one confused as to how the police turned up with / and arrested Paula. Glad Ellen grew a backbone. Eventually.

Loved the Gaelic on Kay's gravestone. Was too quick a glance to catch what it said, though.

I just missed the last few minutes ... saw up to Ellen (doped to the hilt) getting car out of the garage.

What happened?

I hope Ellen and David got together Ian was a grade A twat Does that make me a bad person

I wish I knew!

I watched it adishbesteaten and I have no bloody idea.

That doesn't didnt make any sense at all.
Why was David lurking there in the end?
