Dr Foster is back on Tuesday

I vaguely remember this. Can someone jog my memory please? Also how did it end ?

This programme is totally unrealistic.

Who ever walks out on a dinner party. I mean literally walks out of the french doors and doesn't come back. No explanation. Nothing.
No, doesn't happen IRL. ever.
Who ever staggers around the back gardens of houses clutching a bottle of wine?
Nope, never seen it.
When's the last time you've seen a middle class woman barge into the bedroom of a 15 year old boy and sit drinking wine with him?
No.
Never seen my local GP pissed and ready to do knee tremblers in the local dive.
Haven't seen my children's teachers in there either come to think of it.

Who the fuck wrote this rubbish?

(I will still watch it to the end to see if she actually engages her brain cells and takes him to the cleaners)
I live in hope.

I can't take this seriously any more. As if an adult professional woman would behave like this

I know. It's ridiculous.

PerfumeIsAMessage · 14/09/2017 14:14

Oh! I've just realised that I thought Neil was Bertie because Neil looks like he should be called Bertie! Grin

(PS Benedict Cumberbatch has sweaty palms and smells slightly of cheese)

cudeatahorse · 14/09/2017 14:18

Her character has clearly been written by a man who thinks this is how wronged wives behave.

This sums up all that is wrong with this series.
It's a man's view of a wronged wife and how they're all demented. [

lookatmenow · 14/09/2017 14:21

Definately think Simon is the father of Sain's son

Didn't Sian mention the day after to Gemma that something along the lines of what she now knows of Simon was why she was willing to tell Gemma about Tom?????????

cudeatahorse · 14/09/2017 14:22

It's definitely written by some neanderthal who hates women, that's for sure. I'm disappointed in SJ for gushing over it all the time. If anything, she should be a bit embarrassed.

This.

Eleanorsummer · 14/09/2017 14:34

I really enjoyed the first series but disappointed with this one so far. Simon is bloody awful, want to smack his smug face.

BlackPeppercorn · 14/09/2017 14:37

It's become too try-hard for me now. Every scene is loaded with what they reckon is sexual tension, innuendo, will-she-won't-she.
I'm bored with it. I want the beginnings of a scheme, a scam, a defraud, a surprise alliance, a comeuppance. Not endless SJ licking the rim of an extra large wineglass.

WARNING: do not read this thread when you're busting for a wee and have given birth three times. Laughed so hard I nearly had an accident.

Steptoe!!!!!

Like he'd fallen out of a window and broken his leg!!!!!

This is gold.

squoosh · 14/09/2017 16:07

'I agree squoosh. They should have cast Cumberbatch as Simon. You know it makes sense'

Oh Lotta, your love for Benedict still shines bright! Grin

That would be real Sophie’s Choice for me, shag Cumberbatch or shag the furry gurning husband. Eeek.

I think I’d go sapphic instead and have a liaison with blonde doctor woman.

PantPlot · 14/09/2017 16:09

Seriously though, why do they all have the same wine glasses?

The production team can't just have been that lazy surely?

Lottapianos · 14/09/2017 16:22

Good choice squoosh. Blonde doctor Sian is indeed hot

Lottapianos · 14/09/2017 16:38

Out of interest though, who do people think would be a good actor to play the 'crawl over broken glass' role? Anticipating some amusing answers Wink

PhelanGood · 14/09/2017 16:50

Chris Noth?
Hugh/Cary Grant?
They don't make em like they used to!
Jude Law would be perfect for the role, while I don't find him attractive, many do. And he's convincing in the role of a smug cheat 😉

Maudlinmaud · 14/09/2017 16:54

Michael Fassbender? The BBC can afford it for sure. Ooof I love that man. Totally worth bloody glass injuries. Totally.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/09/2017 16:55

maybe he hd the snip hence why no other kids so their daughter may not be his .....

Lottapianos · 14/09/2017 17:34

All excellent suggestions so far. Hugh Grant could definitely pull off the smug bastard routine while also looking obscenely hot in a suit

LoveDeathPrizes · 14/09/2017 17:39

If he'd had the snip he'd have contested it when Kate first got pregnant...

MissEliza · 14/09/2017 18:29

I've just rewatched series 2 as I'm not feeling well today but there was nothing else on Netflix! I have to say I don't like Gemma very much. She isn't very nice to people, Kate's parents didn't deserve that shitty behaviour in their house, particularly her mother. And what responsible adult lets their son find out his parents are splitting up by sending him round to the other woman's house?! Poor old Tom.

hollyisalovelyname · 14/09/2017 18:31

I don't get the love for Fassbender either.

DontDrinkDontSmoke · 14/09/2017 19:15

Just catching up on 2nd episode.

bananas you need to spill the beans on Simon Smile

Lottapianos · 14/09/2017 20:14

Holly, you're a strange fish Wink who does tickle your fancy?

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/09/2017 20:16

Good point @love

So what do we think was in the pressie?

PhelanGood · 14/09/2017 20:51

LovedeathPrizes:

Say as a poster said above, Gemma had inside medical knowledge that Simon was completely infertile. She would not have wanted him to know this (she stated: "Don't let Simon see what's in the box") as it would mean Tom wasn't his dad. So she would have to have cheated on Simon's at some point.

Of course it's very far-fetched but would be a cool twist!

Also like the theory that Simon is Sian's son's dad. We are probably all wrong like last series and it's something boring like a tracking device!

AnyFucker · 14/09/2017 20:57

who writes this shit?

A man. No shit sherlock
