Anyone watching this new comedy crime thriller? I have high expectations, purely because I fail to believe that they would have secured Christopher Walken if it had been completely terrible..

@NewModelArmyMayhem18

I love it. Watched the second episode on IPlayer and then disappointed I couldn't 'binge on'. Who is Dolly Wells playing (the socialite's girlfriend)? All characters are differently interesting and yes, I'm curious to find out what the businessman's crime was.
Dolly Wells is playing Christopher Walken’s daughter.

Thanks @CaveMum. I did watch her in the recent Nancy Mitford drama adaptation but didn't recognise her in this.

Dolly Wells was incredible in Dracula I have been surprised not how see her since so it was good to see her in this.

covetingthepreciousthings · 31/10/2021 13:34

Does anyone know will it continue to only be one episode a week or will they release them all on iplayer to binge?? I am very impatient with tv, well that, and I forget what happened if I don't watch them in quick succession Grin

I want to binge watch too. Hate waiting for every week

the80sweregreat · 01/11/2021 06:39

Just put the rest on I player Bbc !

She played Aunt Sadie in the recent “Pursuit of Love” adaptation, but according to IMDB she’s only been in a handful of tv/films since Dracula. Not sure if she’s been doing anything on stage in the meantime.
MrsManders · 01/11/2021 08:46

@CaveMum thanks! She just seems like someone who should be more well known than she is. I think Claes Bang is in this tonight so that should be interesting too.

Got tv all ready to watch new episode live, and confused that they’re airing episode 2, and new episode is on iplayer? It’s the first time in a long time we’re watching something as it’s aired, so I don’t know if that’s usual now?

Bringonthepjs · 01/11/2021 22:31

Love it!

MrsManders · 01/11/2021 22:45

Eleanor Tomlinson is fab! Great episode

the80sweregreat · 02/11/2021 06:21

Love love love this show.
Just fab.

Is episode 3 on iPlayer now?

OP posts:
MrsManders · 02/11/2021 08:47

Yes it’s on iplayer

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 02/11/2021 13:00

I really like that the group members are starting to become proper friends now. And that they are learning life lessons from each other. Also, that their crimes are so varied and don't necessarily fit with the stereotypes.

HarrisonStickle · 02/11/2021 17:49

I absolutely love this! Not overly sold on the gangster stuff, but am overlooking that because the rest is brilliant!

Is i-Player a bit ahead? There's three episodes so far on there.

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 02/11/2021 18:17

They seem to be releasing 'one episode ahead' on IPlayer?

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 02/11/2021 18:23

I've watched episode 3 so now at the halfway point. Really enjoying it so far. Nice to see characters who aren't just 2D. The Darren Boyd character seemed to unremittingly nasty at first but now we are seeing a different side to him, for example.

Mooserp · 03/11/2021 12:39

I quite like this, but episode 3 really did start to feel like a kids/teens show - particularly the bit with the party on the boat. And not enough Christopher Walken

Yiayoula · 03/11/2021 12:46

This series is LUSH !!!

Newgirls · 03/11/2021 16:40

Great characters and surprising depth to it

Agree the young actors are all great. Such a strong cast all round!

the80sweregreat · 03/11/2021 18:06

It's an unusual mix of drama and humour , but nice to see some younger actors getting the lead roles too.
It's well acted.

MrsManders · 03/11/2021 19:50

Cameo by Claes Bang? It’s a shame he didn’t get a bigger part

CiderWithLizzie · 03/11/2021 23:39

I think you mean Gert lush @Yiayoula! !
