THE VICTIM BBC MON 9pm

[Blondeshavemorefun]

New drama about a grieving mum who confronts the man accused online for being her sons killer

But is he really a notorious child murderer or a tragic victim of mistaken identity?

In law, there is the accused and the victim. In life, it’s not that simple...

I think this will be quite heart wrenching

massistar

I agree. Her entirely senseless and unanalytical fixation - and rash actions in consequence - COULD be outweighed by her pathos, but it isn't. The dressing down there the DI said she was 'only entitled to her grief' could have had her in pieces, but she was shown as angry and cold.

It's a great little piece. Though I might have to throw something at the telly if she blethers on about being able to force him to confess again!

e2 recap

LadyKylie if he is Eddie then he has been relocated far away from the family

The family are in Edinburgh and Craig is in inverclyde

Which is the point I keep making!

His accent is very Glasgow! Perhaps the porgramme makers are relying on no one knowing this...

When Craig went all menacing and snarly in court and shouted "you ask Me" to Anna, he reminded me of Ed Norton when he "lost the plot" in court when being questioned in that film years ago about wicked priests (or something like that)

In fact Craig reminds me of a young Ed in a strange sort of way.

So Craig met TOM in prison?

And became friends

And TOM is his friend sitting by John Hannah in court wringing his hands ?

Tho he said earlier he hadn’t been in prison and the brawl he was let off with slap on wrists

But if the guard in prison said it was one of them in the cell then sounds like it’s mistaken identity

And could TOM be the killer ?

Oh, probably knowing this programme, authenticity of accents aside!

Tonight's episode is already creepier than the others!

The druggy guy must have attacked Eddie to please Anna.

I think Craig is Eddie J Turner but that he took the rap for Liam's murder, when it was really creepy friend - forgotten his name. Sorry if someone already posted that theory.

We've still got more to see of the released jailbird ex-husband, I think.

That boyfriend is guilty of something for sure. Did you see the way the policeman involved in the original enquiry looked at him? Red herring?

This is powerful stuff from the second husband. Great script.

I can't believe this will be wrapped up tomorrow night. What is the boyfriends angle do you think?

It's unlikely he's the killer, but there's something very fishy about him.

Unless he WAS the killer, but not the one found guilty?

Bloody hell this is creepy, that Danny !

Good point BitOfFun

That's what I'm thinking @BitOfFun. And what's up with needing to say goodbye to the little boy but not his girlfriend ....

#DannyYouFuckingWeirdo

DONT GO IN THE GARAGE OMG

zaffa, maybe because the boy is around Liam's age, and he is tormented by guilt?

WOAAAAAAAH, it's Tom!

OR IS IT?!

Oh this is hard viewing but really good

I think Craig is going to end up dead, possibly defending Tom from Liam’s Dad who will attack him in the cafe. I think Craig knows that Tom is the killer.
