Dr Foster is back on Tuesday

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

Gripping. Obviously far fetched but still airs on believable (especially knowing of some dreadful break ups IRL)

GherkinSnatch · 05/09/2017 22:25

I feel so stressed out from watching it. Good god the dad is a smug prick.

Imbroglio · 05/09/2017 22:26

I bet the new doctor is connected with Simon or Kate, and her appointment is facilitated by Roz.

I think neighbours sorted their marriage out after Gemma shagged husband, so they are OK now. Note new short brunette hair.

Where do we reckon Simon's money comes from? We know he's crap at business.

Ipitythescale · 05/09/2017 22:27

Well that was disappointing HmmConfused I've so been looking forward to it's comeback. She's went from being the wronged woman seeking revenge to the crazy psycho ex and is totally giving Simon a get out of jail free card from the whole situation. Like are told you see was crazy, you'd have swapped her for Kate too...

Bang on Threesangrias I am with you

PerfectlyPooPoo · 05/09/2017 22:30

Going to the wedding party was massively unbelievable and pissed me off.

Longdistance · 05/09/2017 22:31

I think there is something in that present. Or it could be a red herring 🤷🏼‍♀️

I like the way she dissolved the wedding ring.

She had several syringes. Really intrigued into what she's up to.

I'm sticking with it, even though it was frustrating and cringeworthy in parts.

FeistyColl · 05/09/2017 22:32

What a melodramatic load of bollocks

ElspethFlashman · 05/09/2017 22:32

Christ the melodrama! It's like a cartoon!

I was shouting at the screen the entire time and can't wait for next week. Grin

RyanStartedTheFire · 05/09/2017 22:33

Wtf was that?
DH missed the first series and I was so excited and hyped it up so much - now he thinks I'm an absolute idiot Blush not sure if I'll watch again.

Lymmmummy · 05/09/2017 22:35

It verges on the ridiculous and that make it fun like Simon being cast in a baddie role rather than just a cuddly idiot who can't decide between 2 women

Whilst the whole story is quite far fetched I do think there is probably something realistic about some men /partners just falling on their feet no matter what heartache they cause for others and coming out of the shi*t all shiny and new whilst it takes the other cheated upon parter years to rebuild their lives - ditto the people you thought were friends when married who suddenly disappeared when you divorce and so on

PerfumeIsAMessage · 05/09/2017 22:35

ThreeSangrias will understand why I thought the lube was a nice perfumed body lotion and was straining to see what brand it was!

Clawdy · 05/09/2017 22:36

I was hoping there would be a gradual build up to a clever revenge story, but it all went pear-shaped when she arrived at the party with the hapless James in tow. From then on, it was just silly. Shame, because I was looking forward to it.

HelenaHannDeCarte · 05/09/2017 22:38

Could it be....... Simon was the one to finish off his mum last series, and is living off his inheritance? Or the couple's money all comes from Kate's parents? Or fraud..

Allwashedup · 05/09/2017 22:43

Over hyped codswallop...so far it doesn't live up to S1, but I will persevere and watch again next week..

Imbroglio · 05/09/2017 22:46

Helena some money laundering going on perhaps... his mum seemed well off. Perhaps Simon used his poa to syphon funds into a safe place until after the divorce.

TheSassyAssassin · 05/09/2017 22:49

I think it will get better...or I will be so sucked in I won't care. They def bring out the worst in each other don't they? Made my blood boil when Simon was in her house at the end telling her she'd be leaving: "What's the plan?" "Wait and see!" Arrogant prick! Liked her metaphorical meltdown as the ring disappeared in the acid though. Enough to hook me in for next week!

thought the lube was posh body lotion until saw the posh vibe

IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday · 05/09/2017 22:56

Oh I loved that! It was bloody mad but fantastic all at the same time.

Roll on next week!

SinisterBumFacedCat · 05/09/2017 22:57

Yep OTT melodrama but I wasn't watching it for gritty realism. Grin

It was a bit like watching Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie doing Howard's Way sketch.

Smarmon was an arse with an evil beard, but actor seemed to be enjoying himself.

Agree that Rod is a shit friend. Again.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 05/09/2017 22:58

Ros was a shit friend. Rod was worse for not even turning up.

naughtymutha · 05/09/2017 23:01

I'm hoping this was all a dream and next weeks episode will start with her waking up and dealing with the situation in her controlled normal way. Far too flaky for dr F Hmm

Slartybartfast · 05/09/2017 23:02

oh i remember the first series turned out to be an absolute load of codswallop.
this has started the same.
but her ex is such a nasty piece of work.

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 05/09/2017 23:08

How come she hasn't been struck off the Medical Register or at least given the sack?
She's a dreadful doctor!

MargotLovedTom1 · 05/09/2017 23:08

I'm another innocent who didn't realise it was lube Grin. So what happened to make Tom so pissed off with his mother that he wanted to leave? He said it wasn't about the teacher at the party thing.

I knew it was going to be baloney when the patio door was conveniently open at the start, even though there was nobody in, so she could go snooping.

I think irritating new colleague will find out about Dr F dating a patient and use that against her. I also think Dr F will bump off Simon and dissolve his remains in acid Wink.

Bertie Carvel sounds just like Robert Webb.

AnyFucker · 05/09/2017 23:10

DH and I started shouting at the screen the minute she found the patio door open then didn't stop all the way though
