FINDING ALICE ... SPOILER THREAD ONLY

Spoilers allowed here! For those of us who are binge watching this drama.

I have just finished episode three and I think this is the best drama I've seen in a long time.
I have a feeling that Alice isn't that innocent! The way the policeman looked at her during the inquest , but I'm probably wrong.
I can't wait to see episode four as I'm not sure what to expect now.
No spoilers allowed on the other thread.

I’m reading is at you never know how you would react if you lost your DH so unexpectedly.

studychick81 · 23/01/2021 19:40

Yes I guess so. No one seems very upset

@studychick81

Oh dear, it seems only me who thinks it's rubbish. The lead actress is not good IMO. I think she's really horrible to everyone except her daughter too. She's been really horrible to her in laws who have just lost their son.
No it really isn't. It was terrible
tigerbear · 23/01/2021 23:13

I hated this!!!
Utter rubbish.

TowandaForever · 23/01/2021 23:15

I hated this to. Gave up after the first episode. It the consent with the subject matter felt jarring to me.

AnyFucker · 23/01/2021 23:33

Dear oh dear Keeley Sad

If you generally like her, watch "Its a Sin". She redeems herself in that.

notacooldad · 24/01/2021 01:01

We watched the final two episodes to ight just because we had come do far with watching it and because there's nothing much else to do!
Utter nonsense!
As soon as it finished Dh said thank god for that.
We started watching Schitts Creek ( yeah i was late to Tiger King as well) and loved it!!

IsolaPribby · 24/01/2021 14:11

I have just finished watching the series. So many loose ends, definitely going to be another series!

0blio · 24/01/2021 14:16

@TheRealLadyWhistledown

I’m another who had to check I was actually finished! The way the business partner lady said ‘well tell her when it’s useful’ or similar but we don’t know what that is? Confused
That Harry was the children's father I think.
0blio · 24/01/2021 14:19

There were some laugh out loud moments though.
When Alice was talking to her dad, listing the things Harry would never see,

"Charlotte as a woman, Charlotte festooned with children..."

Dad - "HS2" Grin

lazymum99 · 24/01/2021 15:47

There were some very funny lines including at the party at the end where she said her father had come as a member of One Direction!

That did make me laugh. When the mobile rung and it flashed up ' William fuckwit , estate agent'

Me and DH both liked it. It made us laugh a lot. It made me cry a bit as my dad died last weekend.

I hope there is a second series as I want to know how everything turned out.

Nohomemadecandles · 25/01/2021 18:31

I feel robbed of my time having finished the series.
Too much belief to suspend all at once. Not particularly likeable characters. No depth to any of the storylines.

Yeah, it does feel like a very long pilot episode! (A six episode one).
It just fizzled away...
Waste of some great talent. Shame.

Nohomemadecandles · 25/01/2021 18:32

However, the terrapin line made me giggle for ages!

LindaEllen · 25/01/2021 18:41

I was gutted about this. I was enjoying it a lot, but then it felt like it finished in the middle of a series! Surely there has to be more. That was not an 'ending' at all. I checked for more episodes I was that convinced it couldn't be finished!

I binged it. Should’ve binned it.

Won’t bother with the next series.

Loved Mum. Also loved Afterlife, despite not caring for Ricky Gervaise.

2Rebecca · 26/01/2021 17:26

Not sure I can be bothered watching it all if it doesnt have a proper ending. I hate it when 1 series just sets things up for the next. A major failing of television.

BloggersBlog · 26/01/2021 21:24

Just finished episode 5, really hope there are some twists in ep 6 or else I don't see the point of it. Nigel h has some good lines though.
Does the morticieans wife return or was they 'keep yer 'ands orf my husband' moment only to show us how irresistible KH is? Why did George's mum want a pic of Harry? I think I'd remember who left me pregnant even 28 years later! Why does Charlotte look like neither of them with her gorgeous almost Italian complexion?

Will these be answered or will I be left annoyed with so many questions.. Grin

MsMiaWallace · 27/01/2021 09:09

Can't compare this to Afterlife!!

I was surprised how they've left it so open. I double checked that there were no more episodes.

Don't think I was keen on Alice as a character. Very self absorbed. She was getting on my nerves.

Was sure the 2 children were a result of Harry's sperm?

MsMiaWallace · 27/01/2021 09:10

Also I thought Charlotte looked mixed race?

louise4745 · 27/01/2021 23:39

I thought it was very addictive.

Greame was horrible. I bet he was waiting for a bereaved 30+ woman to join their group.

I cringed when he walked over to her at the pub.

BloggersBlog · 28/01/2021 09:05

Finished it, won't bother with the 2nd series - none of my questions were answered, it was a travesty I tell you! Though they had to get in another nod to KHs stunning absolute gorgeousness with a line from Graham 😂😂
You'd never guess she was a producer 😁

Me too.
That character gave me the creeps!
