THE WIDOW ITV 9pm or +1

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Annoying bbc and itv have dramas at same time in same night but might watch this +1

A woman widowed 3yrs ago when husband supposedly died in a plane crash , and then she suspects he’s potentially alive ......

6 part drama

I just reminded myself to remind you Blonde 😂😂

Why didn't Dominique and the blind/not blind bloke stay with the plane....they'd have found it via the black box surely?

I've just watched this after forgetting the last couple of weeks and literally have no idea what's going on.

Is it worth a watch if I go back on catch up?

I think so but I'm literally the only person I know enjoying it 😂

Definitely worth it although not a cheery little programme and I’m hooked.

We thought that Nico. They wouldn't have even known which way they were walking. I don't think they'd have found it via the black box though. The plane would have emergency locator transmitters, but they are usually started manually by the crew.

I remember when the Air France plane disappeared they said there was an emergency locator beacon thing but it would only transmit for so long.....and I think they have to be within a certain range to pick it up.

Even on Lost they stayed with the plane for a long time before giving up.

Not sure I’ll keep going with this. I like the premise, I like the flashbacks and the way it’s filmed, but its lacking something for me. I spent a lot of the evening watching behind my hands especially in the jungle bits. I don’t like Georgia much so finding it hard to be rooting for her. Finding it mostly uncomfortable viewing. Dh not convinced either. Hmm, not sure 😀

Likewise throughthethickofit not really rooting for Georgia but the little girl and the Icelandic man.

Ólafur Darri Ólafsson is the best actor in this
Shalom Nyandiko is good too.

There are emergency locator transmitters onboard and they last 48 hours, but they have to be manually activated by the crew, who obviously need to survive to do that (I'm crew). Otherwise the black box doesn't transmit, it just records, I think. So without the ELTs activated you're relying on records from air traffic control.

Perhaps because of where they crashed they thought that the best thing was to get out of there?

Mum and I have given up on this... Too far fetched and complicated!

In the first couple of episodes, when the blind woman was listening to a report about the plane crash, the recording distinctly said, there was only one survivor, the woman Dominique. And yet yesterday, the blind guy was told by the doctor, that she'd died ??? Help !!

Didn't the Dr say that she died of her injuries?

So initially survived & then died.

I'm trying to catch up with The Widow. Some v good characters as you've said, but in finding KB lips as distracting as Anna Friel's in Marcella. Wish they wouldn't do that to themselves!

God it's getting a bit too miserable, and I'm sure as hell sleeping with my babe tonight having watched the terrifying baby monitor scene. 💔

I’m finding it’s all geting a bit ridiculous, Kate thinks she’s some kind of warrior. Can’t take her seriously at all, baby scene was distressing

Yes the baby scene was horrible. A lot of it is very gritty.

So she gets attacked twice in as many hours, yet she swans off into the jungle alone to find gangster man!

Ffs, I dozed off. What was he telling her in that flashback? About living their lives?

He was referring to getting over losing the baby, I think.

It's so far fetched, it's a bit tedious. I can't believe there are two more to sit through! Seems like I've watched too many to give up now!

What happened with the baby?? I fell asleel

Gosh this is totally miserable and very far fetched.

That said, want to know why her husband was taken.

The baby died due to cot death.

Cot death upsydaaisy

Found this one very upsetting, but other than that, we are really enjoying it here. Seem to be in the minority!
