HAPPY VALLEY S3 - Sundays 9pm bbc 1 - TV PACE NO SPOILERS - thread 4

[Blondeshavemorefun]

As thread 3 is almost full at 984 thought would do a new thread as didn't see one

hope that’s ok

will link the other 3 below

I noticed when trawling IMDb, that Winnie (old lady who took Ilinka in) is actually English but I'm sure I remember her speaking Croat? I confess I did not know it was Croat, but I believe was meant to be.

I thought that! I'm not Scottish so thought I just be wrong, but it really jarred and seemed odd.

He'll still have that bear-hair chest tho 😱

My DH was a lorry driver longtompotand he once had to use an Eaton twin splitter which had to be double de-clutched (double-clutched in the US) each time he changed gear, which he found very irritating. The system is meant to give smoother gear changes for heavy vehicles like lorries and tractors. I think you've got the theory right emotionalsupportviper DH found it stressful having to remember to do this and couldn't wait to get back to his regular lorry, though some drivers love them.

Faisal seems barely able to put one foot in front of the other at times. Annoyingly overdone.

For some reason that doesn't work for me.

Sorry, Neil - no offence.

If it's any consolation I'm probably not your type either.

Time is cruel . . .

Isn't she Angela Pleasance? Donald Pleasance's daughter?

I was impressed with her, too - I don't know how accurate her pronunciation was but it certainly sounded very fluent,

Have had a horrible experience just a few minutes ago.

I was a day ahead of myself and was happily counting down the hours - then realised it was only Saturday.

Please hold me in your hearts, everyone. I feel lost and betrayed.

Oh viper. That is more distressing than the picture of beardy Neil upthread. #StayStrong <from t'allotment>

<softly weeping>

😢

Catchphrase and the Masked Singer?

Don't watch either of them

I'm consoling myself with a documentary on the Times Square Killer on Netflix.

"Passes tissues"

I read an interview a few weeks ago - I think with an actor - and they said the last episode will leave viewers ‘reeling.’

I’m guessing this means a goody character will die?

Yes and she's 81

This. It's making me quite grumpy when people say "maybe SHE'S actually the bad one" when we've SEEN the abuse. It's misogyny.

I’ve loved Con ONeill for bloody years, ever since he was in Brookside. He was brilliant as Pharoah in the early 1990s Joseph and the amazing Technicolor dreamboat (when Jason Donovan was Joseph for the first time). Also saw him doing a Pinter play. Very talented actor, and the fact that he can make himself so unattractive in Happy Valley is testament to that talent! Neil just looks like needs a bloody good wash.

@Inhibitor, very jealous you’re on screen. You live in a lovely part of the country.

Just watched Rogue Agent with JN
I can recommend it , was a nice way to spend two hours even though his another 'baddie ' in this too

@CuriousMama
I love Donald Pleasence, one of those old school British actors, can be both chilling and do comedy, his daughter was fantastic in HV. So WRT to the thread on Brooklyn Beckham earlier, some talented people have equally talented children……my case in point being of course Ashley Cowgill, (Joe Armstrong) son of the immensely talented Alun Armstrong, he definitely inherited those acting genes and has worked hard in his acting career.

@the80sweregreat
where can I see Rogue Agent please

Having only decided to see what all the HV kerfuffle was about a mere 3 weeks ago, I am all caught up and dying to see how it all pans out!

@Saucery it doesn’t take long does it with only SIX 45 minute episodes per series, I’m used To double figures series like the US ones

having caught up with series 1 and 2, which one did you prefer? I think series 1 is flawless and will always be my personal favourite

We watched it on Netflix
