Did anyone watch this back in the spring?

I did. I loved it albeit the ending a bit incomplete- left open for series 2.

Why is it on again so soon? I see it's on BBC Wales again tonight. It doesn't say it's a repeat but surely it can't be series 2 already?

I watched this on BBC1 just s few months ago. I waited week yo week got the next instalment. The series was 8 weeks long.
Anyone know why they are repeating this so soon?

Hubby was meant right so charity auction so his dad (or not as we now know) did it

Ah a bullet. Thanks @apple

She has amazing legs...
Plot is full of holes though
But I like it somehow...sometimes think I need to watch it twice though to keep track.

AmIthatbloodycold · 29/07/2018 17:06

Was looking for something to watch so found this on iPlayer

Interesting sorry but yes she is annoying

AgathaF · 29/07/2018 18:32

I watched this earlier this year on iplayer and really loved it. Not sure why it's being repeated again so soon, although I think season 2 is due to be aired before the end of this year, so maybe that's why?

I'm watching it again and enjoying it again. Although I do agree that Faith's sexy routine is a bit unnecessary.

Her shoes are really getting on my tits too. They're obviously getting on her tits as well, as she keeps kicking them off every few minutes, so why not just wear flats.

Ludicrous that she'd go out and leave her upset kids at home in the middle of the night.

But I like it. I reckon her BIL from Broadchurch is well dodgy, but he can't be a killer because he was the baddie in Broadchurch.
Oh and her friend is ver annoying and probably guilty of something too.
...... and..... breathe....

AgathaF · 29/07/2018 21:46

Her friend treats it all as a big joke. Can you imagine being in that situation in real life and having a friend like that??

Mamimawr · 29/07/2018 23:16

If you enjoyed this series and Hinterland, have a look for Hidden on iplayer. I watched it in Welsh when it was on a few months ago. It was really, really good.

SmiledWithTheRisingSun · 30/07/2018 08:18

Thanks Emma Smile

Graphista · 02/08/2018 21:21

Anyone still watching?

HannahnotAgnes · 02/08/2018 21:48

Me but I'm a bit delayed.

Timefortea99 · 02/08/2018 22:04

Still loads of overacting going on. Someone in the production team has a thing for women’s legs. Looks freezing but the shorts are on.

Faith is going to have a thing with Steve I think? I used to have a bit of a thing for him when he was in Stella, even though he was a ginger (not my type), a bit ruddy skinned and looked like he smelled of fags. I liked his slow smile. He has put a bit of timber on, still looks like he smells of fags, has a horrible beard but the slow smile made an appearance. Going off on a tangent, sorry.

I don’t have a clue what is going on but it is watchable.

QueenAnchoret · 02/08/2018 22:12

I couldn't finish it. Found the acting dreadful, and the actress who plays Faith hugely annoying, then remembered she was also in that awful Frankie programme (no second series, unsurprisingly) and was hugely irritating in that, but the BBC seem to like her.

HannahnotAgnes · 02/08/2018 22:13

I can't follow what's going on in this episode at all - very bizarre & creepy.

HowDoIGetOffTheBus · 02/08/2018 22:16

Right I'm giving up on it. Starting to feel stabby at her and her disregard for her children, all the writhing about semi-dressed and slow pace.

HannahnotAgnes · 02/08/2018 22:21

I think I will too - none of it makes any sense at all. Why would she not just go to the Police?

whenskiesaregreyRETURNS · 02/08/2018 23:01

I have no idea who anyone is or what the connection is. Irritated that she probably won't report the breaking in, or whatever that was. Feel sorry for the kids. Very random and irritating. A second series? Hmm

AmIthatbloodycold · 03/08/2018 00:02

Watched it tonight but I'm just going to give up

She's so annoying, and I'm finding I just don't care what's happened to Evan

I'll need to find another drama to get into

QueenAnchoret · 03/08/2018 00:53

She's so annoying, and I'm finding I just don't care what's happened to Evan
Same here. I managed very few episodes, then decided it wasn't worth finding out what happened to Evan.

The80sweregreat · 03/08/2018 02:36

I am confused , the girls around the car and the baby constantly crying is quite distressing. She went to a hotel on the quick, yet managed to produce cool boxes and pushchairs etc etc for the beach in no time at all! its all very bizarre.

arriettyspiders · 03/08/2018 10:27
Grin She always looked to me , throughout the episodes I watched, like she’d literally just been introduced to the children and didn’t quite know what to do with them. It was all very unnatural and artificial.
SinisterBumFacedCat · 03/08/2018 11:01

Actually still enjoying the story although Faith is annoying, she keeps talking over people!

The SIL and MIL really do look alike

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/08/2018 16:25

I’m enjoying it

So evan got in deep with the bad Irish gang after getting the daughter off a murder charge

He helped them get away with stuff
And for well paid

Then things went wrong - and he stole their £80k

Though

Seems someone else is After him. Who sent the note and bullet. Trashed the house

Who had the kids when they were at the lake and found the body. Then the goat. The grandad /TOM had them. Then all at lake

Didn’t understand the teenage gang with girl with no hands all round the car and rest of them

Yes the beach looked Chilly. No one else on it but in shirts and bikini

The80sweregreat · 03/08/2018 17:09

the kids will grow up with 'issues' after all this!!
im going to stick with it, but sometimes its touch and go if i really care what happens!

mrsjoyfulprizeforraffiawork · 03/08/2018 18:06

Who had the kids when they were at the lake and found the body. Then the goat. The grandad /TOM had them. Then all at lake

The awful mother-in-law had them (mentioned in Faith's conversation afterwards). It is hard watching but not quite given up yet. Actress playing Faith makes her look like a distressed halibut (gasping and gazing glassily into space) much of the time.

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/08/2018 18:31

@mrsjoy. What her mum?

The mil was at the lake with her hubby
