On on Sunday night. Anyone interested?

I haven't read the book but I do like a bit of Cumberbatch.

What the hell is going on with the guy titting about in the woods ?

darksideofthemooncup · 24/09/2017 21:58

And he would never be able to stroll into a school like that!

Pastacube · 24/09/2017 21:58

I read the book it made more sense !

N0tNowBernard · 24/09/2017 21:59

I read the book years ago for Uni and don't remember any of this! Is this one off or a series?

bakingcupcakes · 24/09/2017 21:59

I'm a bit behind everyone else but I'm also lost and a bit bored.

UnFuckingAcceptable · 24/09/2017 22:00

What is this shit?
I'm not only bored but totally lost about the government/editor stuff.
And the flashbacks to 70s at the pub??

The80sweregreat · 24/09/2017 22:00

You wouldnt get past the recptionist at our school, or the many gates.

N0tNowBernard · 24/09/2017 22:01

I recorded Electric Dreams so I could live watch this. Wish I'd not bothered!

Crispmonster1 · 24/09/2017 22:02

I love Benedict. Not aware of this story. What's with the man/boy who climbs trees?!

Slartybartfast · 24/09/2017 22:03

Lovely head teacher

ScarlettOH · 24/09/2017 22:04

What a load of pish, strange man randomly bursts into a classroom and they sit him down in the office and bring the wee girl in... surely they’d call the police?! Load of bullshit!

Beingrippedoff · 24/09/2017 22:05

The book was written before MM went missing, school security was a lot more lax back then. But I agree in modern setting that was very improbable

eddiemairswife · 24/09/2017 22:05

I'm not watching, but I just switched over briefly. Why can they never get school scenes right? Never in a million years would anyone get into a school,and wander around like that.
I went off Ian McEwan years ago. It was 'Saturday' that was the final straw.

Rollergirl11 · 24/09/2017 22:06

Not read the book. Is there some kind of time travel going on? Benedict saw his parents in the pub, his mate has regressed back to a child and was that boy she just saw meant to be him?

N0tNowBernard · 24/09/2017 22:08

Yes Rollergirl

JustDanceAddict · 24/09/2017 22:09

No way could you walk into a school like that! You’d have to Buzz in and get past the receptionists. Even dropping off forgotten lunch boxes I had to leave them at reception. I suppose if he’d walked in at drop off it would’ve made more sense as gates are open. Maybe it was like that originally.

This is just a series of random words and images edited together.

LightastheBreeze · 24/09/2017 22:12

I think it is going to carry on like this to the end and not actually finish.

Whatshouldmyusernamebe · 24/09/2017 22:12

It's so shit.

LightastheBreeze · 24/09/2017 22:14

Just popped over to Digital Spy to see if they had any more insight into it but they think it’s shit also

Whatshouldmyusernamebe · 24/09/2017 22:14

It seems to be presuming everyone watching has read the book

LightastheBreeze · 24/09/2017 22:15

It’s not making me wanting to read the book.

The80sweregreat · 24/09/2017 22:16

Havent a clue whos who or what.
Ends soon.

Cagliostro · 24/09/2017 22:17

Signing in but not sure I dare watch as a 7 month pregnant hormonal bag of nerves!

SoPassRemarkable · 24/09/2017 22:18

Can't see how they wrap this up in ten mins.
