Gold Digger BBC 1 **NO SPOILERS** [[edited by MNHQ]]

[unique1986]

Illicit drama starting next Tuesday 9pm.

Looks good!

Ooh thanks. Just set it to record now so I don't forget.

I was just about to cancel my TV licence but after seeing this and the reviews for guilt I'll hold off until next year.

Thanks for the heads up.

Looks good. Older woman. Young man

Gold digger or in love

Looking forward to this.

Starts in less then an hour

Julian Ormond can't be 60, surely? I remember her from her brief mid-90s heyday, she was so beautiful.

She's 54 irl.

That's ridiculous. There are actresses nearer 60 who can do it. She looks mid 50s too

Saw it. Looks good. Can't wait!

I must have been on MN too much, cos I keep thinking this ought to be called Cocklodger.

I think Julia Ormond is just about believable as 60, albeit well-preserved. She obviously hasn't had any work done and you can see that she has fine lines. She is still gorgeous!

I'm watching now. I hope Benjamin does turn out to be genuine and like her for who she is, but from a drama point of view that seems unlikely...

Enjoying so far!

I take it she’s footing the bill for all of this?

I'm enjoying it, but struggling to believe she's 60 tbh.

She's amazingly attractive, I loved her in First Knight, one of my favourite films.

Julia McKenzie is a great actress but too young to play that character.

I think if he was a goody he would not have let her buy him the watch.

The older brother barely moved his mouth when he speaks

Son #1 is... odd.

And what were those flashbacks about?

@southeastdweller why? She's about to turn 79 irl

I'm 59 and my mum is 77

this is drawing me in. may have shouted "red flags!" at the telly once or twice.

Are the flashbacks indicating that the husband was violent.?

young son needs a punch in the face

She easily looks 60 I think. She's got terrible smokers lines around her mouth. Her lovely hair makes her more youthful. Julia MC is far too young to play her mum though.

I'm a bit behind but my instinct is that he's A wrong 'un. Apart from her, everyone is so irritating!

I'm trying to figure out if they've aged her up with makeup or not.

Looking forward to the next one.
