Cleaning up

Anyone watching?

The ads looked good but I’m a bit bored by the cliched/lazy writing already.

I am just astounded the lady who she cleans for in Dulwich has not noticed a rather nice coat has gone missing .

WhentheRabbitsWentWild · 07/02/2019 09:39

Ha
Imagine if in the last episode she is about to get all she ever wanted, and into a posh restaurant walks Dulwich lady Grin spying Sam and her coat on Sam

notsurewhatshappening · 07/02/2019 09:42

Why didn't she pay off the loan shark as soon as she was given the cash?

WhentheRabbitsWentWild · 07/02/2019 09:50

I suppose its the nature of the Beast, gambling in her case .

People without such a problem would pay him off straight away, I know I would.

MaddieElla · 07/02/2019 13:45

And posh business man hasn't noticed that Sam wears the exact same outfit every time they meet?

Cringing through it but obviously going to watch next week. Grin

WhentheRabbitsWentWild · 07/02/2019 16:25

Exactly MaddieElla

I too will be tuning in next week though . Its the finale after all Smile

The80sweregreat · 07/02/2019 17:22

Was funny about the mussels though!
He must realise she isn't a top notch business woman surely?
It's all v far fetched and I became a bit lost last night with all the tooing and froing!

Ballbags · 08/02/2019 07:30

I think Swanney works for the FCA (or police).

Lovingbenidorm · 08/02/2019 13:38

I’m really enjoying this!
I know it’s wrong (and won’t happen) but I really want it all to work out for Sam in the end.
I would love her to get a huge win which sorts out all her problems then realise she does have a gambling problem and happily trots off to her GA meetings, meets a nice bloke and lives happily ever after with her girls! 🙃

PrincessScarlett · 08/02/2019 20:03

That would be a fantastic twist ballbags!! Then Sam would go to prison for insider trading and could also pave a way for a second series. Oh I shall be so disappointed next week if Swanny isn't FCA/police.

The80sweregreat · 08/02/2019 20:16

He could be! Good twist if he is.

HappyGirl86 · 08/02/2019 20:20

I also think he is a police officer. As soon as he came into it and was being so nice to her I thought hmmmm this is going to be the twist!

CurbsideProphet · 08/02/2019 21:15

I'm happy to suspend belief for a 9pm drama Grin

I don't think it will be a happy ending for Sam, but that might be the point. Unless she goes to the police and gets immunity for her information I don't know how it can be resolved.

wildbhoysmama · 09/02/2019 16:24

I think the husband will take the £17k
(previous debt mentioned) she'll persuade him to give her the £32k which she'll use to pay loan shark guy £7k left, credit card £5.5k, Glynn £1.5k, deposit £1.5k. Remaining £16.5k for her own cleaning company/ dance school/ helping Jess with the van/ more botox.

She'll blackmail Swanny/ pinched face office woman with the burner phone( keeping it for her security).

Voila!

In more ridiculousness Jess dumps ridiculously rough looking boyfriend for Glynn and Sam doesn't need no man!

Oh and she replaces posh, grey coat with a brand new one in wardrobe on her last cleaning day in Dulwich!

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 09/02/2019 19:09

Still watching, but very disappointed - it's so unbelievable. Shame, since it could have been far more cleverly done.
Wasn't there once a RL tea lady or cleaner, who was 'invisible' to staff, and thus able to,pick up all sorts of info and quietly make her pile? But without taking daft risks every 5 minutes.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/02/2019 20:03

So swanny gave her £50k

She puts some in account for daughters which hubby managed to take out / how did he know

And then she gambles rest on a single number ?

And loses

She would have been better doing red or black

Is that right

Violetroselily · 10/02/2019 14:16

How has this not finished yet? Its dragging on isn't it

MrsChollySawcutt · 10/02/2019 15:34

It's making less and less sense as it drags on. 5 hours to get to this point where to be honest not much has happened. Think it would have been better in a max of 3 episodes.

bobstersmum · 11/02/2019 13:38

It's been really maddening to watch as all of her choices are just terrible. Also, I realise the pressures of being a working single mother but her and the children are literally like ships in the night, she would be far better letting the dad take them!

Blondeshavemorefun · 11/02/2019 14:33

But that’s addiction. She can’t help herself

Doje · 13/02/2019 22:09

Err... What?! That's it? They're just going to merrily spend the rest of time doing illegal stuff?! I don't like that as an ending ITV!

foxstar3 · 13/02/2019 22:17

I don't understand where the £50k in the locker cane from ?
Or why the 2 other cleaners were waiting and non working at the same time as Sam's showdown with swanny in the car park
Also why did the insider traders get arressted - why did the cokpliance woman protect sam and not them? Doesn't make sense.

ToEarlyForDecorations · 13/02/2019 22:18

It's descending into Pantomime now !

I'm just finishing off the last ten minutes.

Hazlenutpie · 13/02/2019 22:19

I enjoyed it.

ToEarlyForDecorations · 13/02/2019 22:27

They got there in the end !

It ended in the realms of fantasy.

They should have finished on a song with her in a princess wedding dress with Prince Charming at her side.
