New silent witness series

[Decafflatteplease]

Is there already a thread on this?

If not is anyone watching it's on Mondays and Tuesdays started last week.

I'm loving the new series, didn't really enjoy last series though!

Me! Can’t work out how I feel about Nikki and Jack being together though…

@fionnthedog I like them together, I think it was only a matter of time before they got together.

Did I miss something with jack's house? Where's his dad? Didn't he live with his dad in an old house?

his Dad died didn’t he?

Oh he did I've remembered now @DealOrNoelsDeal and wasn't there something about jack's mum. His dad died in Ireland I think? Why's my memory so vague?! So I'm presuming jack sold the old house and bought the new one that he was having work done on by one of the "baddies"

There was some other woman looking after him too. I can’t remember much either . The whole series was a bit of a dud I think.

His dad died and I'm guessing that Jack sold the house they lived in together and brought another.

I'm not sure about SW, I feel like I've been hate watching it for a few seasons now and for some reason I can't stop, it needs rebooting or something I think.

Wasn’t there a thing where the mum had got in moved with the troubles and the dad had moved them all to England behind her back or something?

Agreed. It’s not great but I’m still weirdly invested

I miss Harry.

I always find it so distracting when Nikki walks. For such a slight woman she certainly has a heavy foot!

Me too.

We watched it last week. It's got quite dark and also it's got more unrealistic in some ways.

But also strangely hooked.

Unfortunately because of ds swimming we can only watch it iPlayer Monday evenings from 8 and then part 2 Wednesdays. I also need to try and catch up on happy valley during that time too!

I was disappointed. Too far fetched and ridiculous story line. It’s all got very soap opera.

It’s utterly terrible and totally unbelievable but I’m still watching.

I don’t like Jack’s new house, ugly as sin

Yes there is an existing thread, and everyone is saying how totally daft it has become. So wasn't expecting anyone to add anymore until monday

@Decafflatteplease I wanted them to get together, and like Jack (am wobbly on Nikki though) but I’m not sure I like the way the writers are writing their relationship… maybe there’s just no chemistry between the actors? It doesn’t feel like they’re a couple in any meaningful way. Clearly Nikkis also massively traumatised so I suppose that would make any relationship tricky!

I massively shipped them and was so excited by the end of season 24 when they kissed … but they haven’t kissed again since?! It’s a bit weird how they’re writing them. I get they don’t want it to become all about their relationship but it’s almost like they’ve gone too far the other way!

I shipped them too. And now, not so sure.

Did they really not kiss the whole of last series?!
