When it comes to the BBC's drama output, 2022 has gotten off to a very strong start – with an array of such as including The Tourist, The Responder and Four Lives all having impressed viewers so far.

And one of the next series to arrive on our screens is brand new thriller Chloe, which is billed by the BBC as a "mystery about obsession, deceit, identity, and grief".

The series tells the story of Bristol-based Becky Green, who takes on a new identity in a bid to uncover the mysterious death of a social media influencer whose seemingly perfect life she had been closely following.

The official plot synopsis provided by the BBC reads: "The thriller follows Becky Green who has been watching Chloe Fairbourne (Poppy Gilbert) via her perfect social media images for some time; Chloe’s charmed life, adoring husband and circle of high-achieving friends are always just a click away.

"Becky can’t resist watching a life that contrasts so starkly with her own; a life spent caring for her mother, who has early-onset dementia, in their small seaside flat on the outskirts of Bristol. When Chloe dies suddenly, Becky assumes a new identity and infiltrates the enviable lives of Chloe's closest friends to find out what happened to her."

It's all dropped on iplayer.

How many times did women "nip to the loo" in this episode?! And I did find that sex scene a bit unnecessary.

refraction · 06/02/2022 22:09

I don't know if I am finding the deception too much and unrealistic even with dramatic license.

@cherrysthename

Was this actress in The Crown?
I recognised her face but couldn't place where I'd seen her before, then I remembered she was Princess Anne in The Crown.

I didn't like her in that. Thought she came across as a Princess Anne impersonator. I like her much more in this.

CeleriacOfTheNight · 06/02/2022 22:14

I'll stick with it but I'm struggling to get past it being Barbie, Princess Anne and Herman from the Serpent

The new friends set are just achingly trendy and arty, aren't they?

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/02/2022 22:24

So Chloe jumped ? Or pushed

Or pills

And if a ten ton truck...la la la.....

I have no idea what is occurring but I thought she was fab as Anne in The Crown, I miss Poldark so am v happy to see George Warleggen and I love The Smiths so it's a big thumbs up from me.

Hopefully tomorrow things will start to become clearer...

She nicked someone’s coat from the office to wear to the art gallery thing and then just turned the next day? Did the coat owner not kick up a fuss?

cheeseisthebest · 06/02/2022 22:38

I really liked it. Just placemarking!

TheChosenTwo · 06/02/2022 22:38

I was wondering that about the coat too, it’s not like one you could have mistaken for your own is it?! And you’d definitely notice someone smuggling it back into the office. And why did she pour her piss into the boss’s scotch? That was WEIRD.

Whahahahaah I can think of a few bosses who would prob deserve that 😅😂😂

TheAbbotOfUnreason · 06/02/2022 22:50

Spotted the whisky doctoring.

What was the taking keys out of a bag and dropping them onto the floor of the car when she was being dropped off by Yoga Friend?

foxlover47 · 06/02/2022 22:51

I thought she said she had been working in turkey and then said Japan at the dinner party so god knows where I got turkey from 🤷‍♀️

Rollergirl11 · 06/02/2022 23:27

@TheAbbotOfUnreason that was so she could go to her house and infiltrate the dinner party under the pretence of going to get her keys.

Also leaving the message on Chloe’s phone is going to come back to bite her in the arse methinks.

secretfreckle · 06/02/2022 23:28

She took her keys out of her own bag and dropped them on the floor so that she would have an excuse to go to the friend's house to pick them up and then 'infiltrate' the party, so she could get in with Chloe's other friends.

The pouring her wee in to the boss' bottle was because she was annoyed that he was still calling the woman she is covering for and not asking her to do the important jobs. It was also to show that she is Unhinged and will stop at nothing!
I enjoyed it. Better than The Teacher and I live in the South West, so was good fun to place spot too!
