The only thing that redeemed that episode was the look of contempt on Ryan's face.
I think it's all just clicked into place.

I thought that was fab! Was feeling very tense throughout! I missed the wankertron reference too- when did Catherine say it and to who?

I really hope both Catherine and Ann bring TLR down. Catherine better get to enjoy her retirement!

@WeAreTheHeroes @Blondeshavemorefun Thank you! I'll go back on iplayer for another listen 😁

Neckbeard is grim. Sounds like he grooms kids. Sounds like he groomed his wife and has spent years controlling her. Padlock on the fridge was noted by the copper and Neckbeard has made himself look really guilty.

Yes and he has set up the teacher who now has a dilemma. Does he call the police to say he’s found the body knowing that he’ll probably get charged with the murder.

I was that too. Is he going to hide the body?

I almost feel sorry for the 2 drug dealer lads. Tweedledum and Tweedledee.

I know what will they spend her 2K on? I suppose it'll go towards her funeral?

🙁That’s a point. They always make sure heroic figures have lost their real lives so it’s not too terrible when they die. Catherine’s lost her daughter, her sisters sorted and Ryan knows his dads a tit ( well he will by next week when he can’t help himself but kills someone one).

I thought that too I meant 🙈

I think Ryan had the sweetest face. Took me a while to clock that he's the same actor from the earlier series.

I want the final scene to feature him and his granny. Both of them very much alive!

Just brilliant! We all knew TLR would escape so of course it was going to be farcical.

What the fuck will Rob do now? Faisal has so set him up! And gross that Jo was one of the students he groomed. Poor poor Jo.

Poor Jo indeed she never stood a chance.

i am looking forward to a Catherine v TLR showdown.

My 18 year old said immediately "as if she wouldn't have rang to make sure he went to school!"

I'm a bit meh with the escape scene but it is what it is I suppose.
Cue a showdown with Catherine and Ann.

Even Catherine herself said he's gone to school allegedly 🤷🏻‍♀️

I ❤️ Little Ryan. Love the way he says “Granny”.

SapphosRock · 22/01/2023 22:24

Faisal has set up Neckbeard a treat. The police will be able to tell the place has been cleaned up. Wonder if he cleaned his prints of the French door handles.

Wasn't he wearing gloves? Because he had the syringe to kill Neckbeard?

I think Faisal will get away with it.

Honestly, between people fancying Tommy Lee and people feeling sorry for those two violent lumps!

Netaporter · 22/01/2023 22:26

What an episode! I too missed Wankertron.

100% great audition for JN as 007.

That’s cos it’s not real life 🙄

dapsnotplimsolls · 22/01/2023 22:28

'Wankertron' is about 15 mins in - when Catherine is talking to her ex in the kitchen.

Ohyoudodoyou · 22/01/2023 22:29

@StrychnineInTheSandwiches I really fancied Tony Soprano too. Wouldn't go to a Nando's with him in real life, like.

StrychnineInTheSandwiches · 22/01/2023 22:30

Say it ain't so, @Railwayroad??? 😲😲😲

Just unbelievable that she'd tell her boss she was worried about him escaping and taking Ryan bungee jumping, she was told Ryan had been asked to go to Leeds that day and constantly gets on her phone at other times yet didn't bother with the 20 second call to the school to ensure he'd arrived 🥴

Tony wouldn't share his chips

"'ow do. The name's Bond. James Bond."

🤣🤣🤣

Kaftanesque · 22/01/2023 22:31

Apparently Sally Wainwright left such a long gap between series because she wanted the same actor to play Ryan throughout.And James Norton and he get on so well.JN rates him highly as an upcoming actor and is mentoring him.That's nice.
