THis was bad. But on a par with Keeping Faith which also concludes tonight. Lots of hair pulling, gurning, table thumping, leg flashing in lieu of a credible story.

I really enjoyed series and esp last episode.

Tho I didn’t reliese dantes bf was bels son

What an action packed episode

And def room for s2

Which I shall watch :)

MadamBatty · 30/08/2018 15:16

Have I missed the last episode or maybe I’m just slow, the last episode I saw was the PT who doesn’t look like a PT discovering she was pregnant & a hug from Belle?

Inkanta · 30/08/2018 15:45

So frustrating how Wes got away with that! Bell just caved in when he went on a strop about her kiss with Teddy. God sakes.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/08/2018 16:10

Last episode was last night

TeachesOfPeaches · 30/08/2018 16:28

This was so bad it was good. The last episode was horrendously unrealistic, melodramatic and stupid but still enjoyed watching it! The birth was hilarious - one contraction and the baby was out Grin

The birth was hilarious - one contraction and the baby was out

'it can't be a contraction, I'm not due for three weeks' - oh, that's right dear, babies are never early, they all come exactly on time. (or - maybe it's not Wes's??)

flopsyrabbit1 · 30/08/2018 17:49

oh god im dim,so did bell and wess get back together then,i just thought they were having a slow dance Blush

midsomermurderess · 30/08/2018 17:54

So many people saying Manchester looks good. I thought it looked like a complete shit hole. Ho hum.

IcedPurple · 30/08/2018 18:01

The birth was hilarious - one contraction and the baby was out

And she managed all that without so much as smudging her 'natural look' make up, or without making a bit of a mess over Belle's lovely wedding suit!

Oh, and how did they cut the cord? With the same knife used to cut the wedding cake?

But all of this pales into insignificance compared to the idea that a woman would attend the wedding of her sister and her ex-husband, only a few months after they had seperated due to his cheating. This is the sort of thing I meant when I said that real people just don't behave like these 'characters'.

divafever99 · 30/08/2018 18:32

Really disappointed by this series, I just got less believable every week! Why on earth would you attend your ex husbands wedding to your sister!

TeachesOfPeaches · 30/08/2018 18:34

I have to confess I am sad it is over! Pure shite but enjoyable shite

southeastdweller · 30/08/2018 20:00

I gave up after the first episode. Just seven pages of posts for a six-part series - unusual for MN.

I doubt this will get recommissioned.

So many people saying Manchester looks good. I thought it looked like a complete shit hole looked beautiful, all the red brick buildings. I gave up on the programme though.

Eenymeeny123 · 30/08/2018 21:06

Seriously i never watched anything that was so far fetched on the BBC before. It was like an episode of the eighties show the Colbys, without the style and sun!!

VanGoghsDog · 30/08/2018 22:24

@flopsyrabbit1

I didn't get any vibe that they were 'back together', I thought they were just dancing.

flopsyrabbit1 · 30/08/2018 22:31

Oh not just me thenGrin

MrsJamin · 31/08/2018 06:52

What an utterly absurd episode - but seemingly like the rest of you, I didn't give up watching weeks ago for some odd reason! So many silly secrets to be revealed in one episode, I was a bit bored of watching people be surprised!

Blondeshavemorefun · 31/08/2018 07:01

I hope there will be a S2

topcat2014 · 31/08/2018 09:23

I am wierdly loyal once I have spent a few hours on a programme - and do tend to watch to the end through fingers if needed

Thesearmsofmine · 31/08/2018 15:49

I watched the last two episodes last night while DH was at work. What utter shite it was!

ellenanora5 · 31/08/2018 19:38

Well I watched till the end, complete and utter shite

Is it even possible to get divorced and remarried in six months

Was it revealed that the father of Disney was the local football celeb

Why was Sue Johnston always in dungarees, they looked awful

So Belle is just going to welcome Lorelei and the baby with open arms into their lives........oooooookkkkkkaaaaayyyy then.

EachandEveryone · 31/08/2018 20:23

I just watched the last one whilst i was waiting for my enema to work. What a load of crap it made a mockery of the actors and the viewers.

dogsdinnerlady · 31/08/2018 21:09

I couldn't understand how you can give birth while wearing leggings.

HelloGabriel · 01/09/2018 15:56

The way Sue Johnston's character spoke to the granddaughter was vile, was it supposed to be funny?
