lazymum99 · 02/03/2022 21:31

They were all deleted

TheAbbotOfUnreason · 02/03/2022 21:34

Sorry, didn’t see the messages either.

But … god, what an utter horror show of a holiday this is turning into.

the80sweregreat · 02/03/2022 21:34

Bloody hell , it's all so grim !
Jake is obviously abusing his own mum

ENoeuf · 02/03/2022 21:34

This is really slow. I don’t care about any of them.

Pythian · 02/03/2022 21:35

They all just said "Message deleted"!

TheAbbotOfUnreason · 02/03/2022 21:40

Jake is a nasty wee sod. That’s way beyond grumpy teenager behaviour.

Whydoiwearsomuchleopardprint · 02/03/2022 21:41

They are all awful!!!

ENoeuf · 02/03/2022 21:43

Ahhh I’ve just remembered the book. Won’t post any spoilers obv.

hockeygrass · 02/03/2022 21:43

It's a pity the weather was cold and windy, the cast look frozen!

whatsthestory123 · 02/03/2022 21:46

yes freezing

Pythian · 02/03/2022 21:49

I've read the book but seem to remember a character who's not in this adaptation. I could be getting confused because, like a previous pp, I read a lot of these sorts of books. I can't remember how it ends so no spoilers from me...

the80sweregreat · 02/03/2022 21:50

Jake needs a lot of help

RJnomore1 · 02/03/2022 21:51

Oh I didn’t know this was on! Read the book I remember liking it but not much about the plot…where can I catch up?

Queeniepies · 02/03/2022 21:51

It's so hard to follow, with wooden acting. Jill Halfpenny plays the same character whatever she's in!

the80sweregreat · 02/03/2022 21:52

Jill does get typecast.

ENoeuf · 02/03/2022 21:55

It does look freezing and they are all so pale and untanned 😂

TheAbbotOfUnreason · 02/03/2022 22:01

They’re British - of course they’re pale!
the80sweregreat · 02/03/2022 22:03

Was Izzy going to see Kate's daughter ?
Or Sean ?
I was so bored I zoned out for a while

whatsthestory123 · 02/03/2022 22:06

its terrible im only going to see it through because ive invested 2 episodes worth

Romeiswheretheheartis · 02/03/2022 22:14

I've read the book but seem to remember a character who's not in this adaptation.

In the book Jake has a brother there too.

Christ what a miserable holiday
