New 6 part drama. Series 1 was good - thread here

not sure if s2 carries on or completely new story /characters as the names don’t ring a bell

Christine’s family, oldest son Will (Lloyd Everitt), youngest son Jamie (Aaron Anthony) and daughter Megan (Mali Ann Rees), are trying to get on with their lives after the recent tragic death of their brother Liam.

As they look forward to Megan’s wedding, the family have their lives turned upside down when a stranger, Connor (Jordan Wilks), arrives in town claiming a connection that nobody could have imagined.

As buried secrets come to light, they must consider who they are and grapple with morality and divided loyalty. As their lives spiral out of control, a terrible pact may be all that can save them.

My musings ……

Well least they did dna test


I did think she would fake it - I would have trundled to post box with it / with all 4 so all knew that swab /box been posted


Maybe had two tests - with some strangers swab

To look so much like Liam , has to be him


If she didn't fake the test then must be the dads son


As was only tested against mum


What was on the dongle / as in whose birth certificate


Is it meant to be connors


Wonder what they did and what she wants destroyed/to go missing - the birth certificate


Their dad is a bad one. Stealing money


Will Connor see what's on the dongle


So we have his birthday. July 1998 - 23yrs old


Is he the youngest


Or the gay son is younger ?

I thought you were going to say you'd binged watched and then written a list of spoilers and posted them upthread.

We will forgive anything else- we know that you are human and fallible just like the rest of us.

No never. Not me !!

Conner and Liam are twins neither are hers biologically - she's a social worker so

somehow took Liam as a baby? that's my theory anyway !

Emotionalsupportviper · 31/10/2022 22:16

Do now I am wondering where the pact is (mum and her 2 friends seem to hint at sone past secret, which I thought was killing Harry but he appears to be alive and claiming benefits)

Killing Harry was my first early speculation, too.

Am I the only one finding this episode slow?

I thought the first season was excellent, I just couldn’t get on with this and actually skipped two episodes and then watched the last one. It was that bad.

Oh yes! That's a good one.

Peers closely

have you seen them all ?

or a true uneducated guess

purpleme12 · 31/10/2022 22:59

Ah I think this series is way better than the first one actually!

burnoutbabe · 31/10/2022 23:52

Well she can't have given birth to the new man else she would know his dna would match?

Oh what if you use surrogate fertilised egg? Would dna show you are mum if you were the one womb used. So she gave birth to twins but hid one? (For what reason I have no idea!)

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/11/2022 05:08

Unless she faked the dna swab and swapped it

OP posts:
lazymum99 · 01/11/2022 09:00

I thought she faked the DNA result papers. I would not trust the letters she handed out to the kids. Very odd relationship with their mother. Father left 20 years ago and no info at all on what happened
she keeps getting info from the policeman. Does this mean she is the police character from the last series and has changed occupation? Otherwise why Is he giving her all this

ageingdisgracefully · 01/11/2022 09:28

Yes it's as if she was making a performance out of the swabbing for effect. I'm not clear if she's the same character from the previous series either. 😀She's obviously been covering up for Matthew Gravelle. Could she be an undercover cop?

She's very invested in the pregnant woman isn't she? Wonder what the backstory is.. and the woman in the care home was her mother who had been visited by Connor and thought he was Liam? 🤔

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/11/2022 10:53

I don’t think she is same character

just writers liked her so she’s in s2

i was wondering in my late night musings /feeding baby that could. Conner be Liam’s twin and mum isn’t his bio mum as in lists and was dads affair and twins and she kept one and other Conner got adopted

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 01/11/2022 10:57

Or between her and her friend with short hair , thst when girls come to them preg as they are social workers, that they are in baby selling business and take baby off the young girls and give to another couple who want a baby snd forge their birth certificates

OP posts:
ellebelli · 01/11/2022 11:04

I think Liam and conner twins and for whatever reason conner was left behind.
The mum and her other friend(long hair)did something years ago that they would be in trouble for now(so again something to do with keeping Liam and leaving conner)
I am enjoying it and love the cafe and pub/wine bar that we have seen..my kinda places!looks lovely where filmed.
I'm afraid that I will probably binge over the weekend so won't be able to join in anymore...don't know how you all manage to just watch weekly.
I would also be so confused if I had 3 or 4 series on the go..

Ifionlyknewthenwhatiknownow3 · 01/11/2022 11:20

Reckon her colleague's husband is dodgy too, who is sending him messages and why is his wife so keen to read them?

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/11/2022 11:27

Also as I’m a Saddo lol. I went searching for Liam’s grave

he was born 11 April 1998 - died 25 may 20 but done weird like

11/4/98 and 25/5/20

surely you would put 1998 and 2020

so he died 22yrs and just over a month

Connor 15/7/98

so was 3mths younger than Liam

thats if the birthdate is correct. Conner said it was the one he was given

if he was in care from one he could have been born same day and be twins and thry guessed his age and if small under aged him

tho obv if in care from day 1 a newborn bsby isn’t the same as a 3mth baby

I have been overthinking this lots 😂😂😂😂😂

Don’t binge @ellebelli join in musing with us

OP posts:
ellebelli · 01/11/2022 12:34

Aw I love all the musings and want to join in.
I'm going to start the devil's hour next so maybe i will binge that and keep this weekly haha...

butterpuffed · 01/11/2022 17:37

Yes, Connor said he only had the birth date that was given to him .

Why is Christine so secretive about everything ~ not just what her and the two colleagues were up to years ago but also about her mother . I too think the colleague's husband knows more than he's letting on .

And the policemen has some secret to keep which Christine is threatening to talk about. Maybe he's involved with whatever happened between all three colleagues .

Can't agree with the PPs saying it's slow, I think it's a really good drama .

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/11/2022 18:23

Agree @butterpuffed it’s good

@ellebelli I downloaded that the other day as saw a thread about it

looks good

will be something I watch soon

and yes watch tv pace with us and we can muse together 😂

Agree - I found the first episode slow, but from the second I was gripped.

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/11/2022 18:53

Assume 3&4 are good @Emotionalsupportviper but you can’t sat as binged 😂😂😂

They are good but obviously I can't give details and it's killing me.
