Oh my good god. Just coming to the end of the first new episode. Thrilling.

Idris is also not bad to look at!

I think the film is just a rumour taken from something that Idris said in an interview but fingers crossed

The gorgeous Paul McGann looks like he is in tonight’s episode too

The other thing that irritated me was the bog standard under counter second hand fridge being £95.
I need to get a life Grin

NoWordForFluffy · 03/01/2019 18:20

That annoyed me too; you'd only get a deranged, murdering, psychopath offering £95 for that! 😂

@Rowenaravenclawsdiadem I think this is the one I got for DH... Luther-esque Coat Best I could find within my budget. The one Idris wears is made from Harris tweed.

That fridge price bothered me too! I was thinking maybe it’s london prices!?

Saucery · 03/01/2019 19:06

They couldn’t afford the risk that someone else would answer the fridge advert so bid wildly over what it was worth.

Saucery · 03/01/2019 19:15

I do hope Paul McGann doesn’t mumble. He’s dreadful for mumbling his way through parts these days.

But what was all that about Hampstead Wood?
It's not Hampstead Wood it's bloody Hampstead Heath pandering to the bloody American audience, can't see why else they would write it that way.

Lucy Mangan thinks Luther's coat is too small ...so now I'm spending a lot of time appraising the fit .As if there weren't enough to worry about in the episodes .

costacoffeecup I think I would feel the same in your shoes .I am wtching from behind my hand a lot ,and cuddling my cat .

I do think they've rather gone overboard on gruesomeness .

I saw Paul McGann in a local Waitrose recently. Couldn't remember what I'd seen him starring in, so I stood there googling him while he was filling his trolley up. When I got home my kids were aghast..."Mum, he's DR WHO Hmm!!!" Grin

StoorieHoose · 03/01/2019 20:36

I think it looks like it coat is too small cos he wears a suit jacket underneath. His trousers are a bit tight too but I do like him walking about with his hands in the pockets!

StoorieHoose · 03/01/2019 20:38

I’m old enough to have lusted after Paul mcgann when he was in the Monocled Muniteer

peridito · 03/01/2019 20:38

I think I'm too blinded by the general over all gorgeousness to really distinguish individual items of clothing !

katiescarlett1939 · 03/01/2019 20:40

Well said @peridito.

He's an absolute stunner.

Hungrypuffin · 03/01/2019 20:44

If the husband has a brain tumour...surely a doctor with a diagnosed brain tumour would not be considered fit to practise? I mean, I know we have to suspend our disbelief with this show but really, they’re expecting us to assume there are no safeguarding procedures in place for high-risk surgery?

I’m really annoyed they made Alice and Luther into lovers. For me, the beauty of their relationship was that it wasn’t sexual. It was somehow above all that, purer in a bizarre way. They’ve cheapened it a bit.

blamethecat · 03/01/2019 20:54

Maybe he hasn't had a proper diagnosis ? Or he used a false name at another hospital ?

Saucery · 03/01/2019 20:57

Could it be the wife’s diagnosis?

GoldenSyrupLion · 03/01/2019 21:06

Ooh Saucery, that's an interesting theory. Unfortunately I wont be able to read the thread live as I can't watch tonight until after the bloody football.

Encyclo · 03/01/2019 21:08

Don’t think it’s the wife because she was asking him about possible symptoms he might be experiencing

Encyclo · 03/01/2019 21:11

oh God this poor girl 🙈🙈

helzapoppin2 · 03/01/2019 21:13

Why are they mumbling?
How can a woman fit in a suitcase?

AngeloMysterioso · 03/01/2019 21:14

Her face looks like it's going to pop

Flanuary · 03/01/2019 21:19

George’s bald henchman, who let Alice in the house is Barry from Eastenders (of Colin and Barry)

Just thought I’d share that after miss8ng half of this programme so far bloody Googling him cos I could ‘see’ him with hair.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 03/01/2019 21:21

DP has turned over from the football for this, much to my disappointment... it's properly giving me the creeps.

I think it's the husband scans. I'm not sure about the wife's involvement. I was sure she was at the start but perhaps it's too obvious. I'm wondering now if she was involved but he has gone a bit rogue.

AngeloMysterioso · 03/01/2019 21:22

Barry as in... this guy?
