Anyone watching?

Barry Grant? Where?

I can’t stand the way that headteacher speaks.it’s driving me mad

Oh Jonas Armstrong? Nothing like Barry Grant?!

Surely the family of the missing boy would have a family liaison officer with them at all times in the house?

Was about to post same. He was in the Bay and the Drowning.

They are doing that 'your turn to speak as we read the script' acting.
I'm on a come down from watching The Fall and Save Me/Save Me Too, which were pure class, so this is a bit Poundland in comparison.
Still going to watch as it's this or Dr Pimple Popper...

It is SO whispery!

Right I am predicting that there was 'an incident' when the sisters were children. Rachel Sterling sister killed for AMM sister, or covered up a killng that she did.

And the boy has run away as his dad is shagging his head teacher, but then he's died in an accident. The brother that lives in America is dodge and everyone suspects him, but on this occasion, he's not guilty.

I agree

Does Anna MM only have one pair of trousers she can act in? She wears the same ones in Motherland

I'm calling bullshit that even a private school headteacher's office would look like that.

It looks like Ben is Teresa’s son and Georgie is Fraser’s daughter, so they’re a blended family.

God, that just took a dark turn.

Ben is the result of stranger rape (urgh) so she's wondering what he's inherited.

Nature vs nurture and all that

so glad it's not me. acting is odd and plot is full of cliches. Rachel Sterling is talking like she is doing an audition for a part as Margaret Thatcher and Anna MM 'crying' in the bathroom was dreadfully hammed up.

Oh crumbs. See you all next week?
I'm tuning in for NOT Barry.

It is missing an annoyingly perky & nosey but good at her job Family Liaison Officer

The best thing is that it's only 4 episodes.

I’ll be here next week 😆

It’s like Anna mm and partner only been together a few weeks from the way they act and the way she is with his daughter, but clearly they are long established.
And what’s with all the ill adopt him to give him a male role model stuff, you live with him anyway, surely that’s what you should be doing ?
Maybe small boy would be a bit less odd if they spoke to him occasionally and let him out of his room .

Shame it's not all on ITV hub.

When was this filmed? It feels a bit social distanced in parts then very much not in other bits. Not many scenes when there's more than 2-4 people in a room. Only other time was the BBQ and that was outside

Rachael Stirling normally speaks like that. It's nice I think, makes a change these days.

I did like the green paint in the kitchen though.

Hmm not sure about this... But my god if I hadn't filled in cpoms for any of the concerns that teacher mentioned I would be in trouble. Neglect, hunger, bruises, odd/quiet child, yea no concerns there...

That's the only bit I liked Zebra.

It’s got a strange atmosphere. And looks like it was filmed during a lockdown because all the actors are about 12 feet apart. When Anna MM was disclosing her attack and started crying they were still at opposite ends of that massive chopping board

And why do so many of these dramas have folk chopping shit up all the time ? And how they are all so minted ?
