Hi all

Here is the next thread for those who are watching The Handmaid's Tale Season 2 on Channel 4. Please don't put any spoilers on this - the other thread (for those in other countries who are watching ahead of the UK) is:

They're bringing them back!

The Nazis used to kill 10 civillians for every soldier killed by the Resistance.

Yes they must be bringing them back!!

Where are they taking them??

Oh dear, this is going to reinforce Janine's skewed faith

Whoever speculated that they would be bringing fertile women back from the colonies to replace the ones killed in the blast, they were right!

They've got to be taking them back.

We haven't seen them do anything to deserve being taken like that.

They must be taking them back to replace the ones who have been killed.

I'm in bits already...must get a grip, it's only a TV programme!!

I actually thought the funeral was the most humane thing they have done for the handmaid's. I assume the small crosses were the commanders and the red coffins in the middle the handmaid's? It looks like they were getting a better send off than the commanders.

Satisfying to see Waterford so weak.

I can't believe they killed all those people

Sad more handmaids are dead than commanders though

I guess Ofglen thought the end justified the means

Surely all that exposure to radiation will affect their fertility.

Are they still going to be fertile after digging around in radioactive waste?

I can't believe they are bringing them back! I thought no way to that idea all along.

That funeral was unbearably sad. Awful that Aunt Lydia didn’t use their real names even in death.

The fact that more handmaids than commanders were killed is terrible. I read an interview with Bruce Miller in which he said that MayDay wasn’t necessarily a handmaid rescue agency. They want to hurt Gilead and handmaids are Gilead’s most precious possession...

We almost need the ad breaks for a breather!

They might have their fertility affected but Gilead will be desperate.

I wonder what Luke and Moira will do? Moira seems to be spurred on by this, more so than Luke.

I wonder if it's because she knows the other Handmaid's and Luke doesn't.

$240,000 for a healthy baby........

I thought the new bloke swearing to find everyone was insinuating that he thought Fred was involved.

I don’t get bringing back radioactive contaminated hand aids. Surely they will be in fertile or at best producing shredders

He's giving me the creeps.

Phew that was tense

She is one strong woman

That wasn't Rita was it?

Yes was that Rita?

Not sure anyone else know?
