No spoilers @bettytaghetti !!!

If people want to go and look at Twitter etx they can

No pics please from trailers etx

Sorry!!! 🤦‍♀️ In my defence, didn't think it was particularly spoiler-ish since we know there's going to be some sort of showdown between the main protagonists!

Sorry to mention Where the heart is but not only is Sarah Lancashire in it but Siobhan Finneran is too.

Why do you think Darius left Tommy without a phone

Why do you think Darius left Tommy without a phone

To keep him isolated and to stop him doing anything risky. LIke try to contact Ryan / Catherine / acquire a gun / let anyone know his location to save him from being assassinated by Darius. Etc.

Because Darius' intentions towards TLR are not as travel agent for his Life in the Sun.

He wants to have the upper hand, be in control.

spiderlight · 31/01/2023 11:48

@EyesOnThePies - I love that!! They should definitely shoot it as an alternative ending for the DVD!

foxlover47 · 31/01/2023 11:48

@EyesOnThePies and @Janiie I see ... because it's obvious he would want a phone isn't it so guessed there was a big reason not too !
But would Darius take him out knowing he is meant to have Ryan with him

WhathaveIdoneagain · 31/01/2023 11:49

I am really worried for Clare and Richard. 😔 Clare is quite vulnerable, and Richard was suddenly brought back as a main character.

The way Ryan thinks is very similar to Catherine, so there is no chance he would be swayed by TLR.

Catherine is so menopausal. I can so feel for her.

I hope Ann arrests / kills (in self-defence) TLR.

I don't think Darius cares less about Ryan and the fabled Marbs trip. He seems to have unfinished business with Royce, I think that will be ending with everyone else running round in circles trying to find them no doubt caught in the cross fire.
I hope Beetroot man is on again I quite liked his foreboding presence.

HannaHat · 31/01/2023 11:58

Fully admit I'd have binged the arse off it twice if it had all been on at once, but I have enjoyed the delayed gratification (and these threads).

foxlover47 · 31/01/2023 12:08

@Janiie yeah I don't think he is to be underestimated at all , he looked like he knew how to handle a knife didn't he 😅

Catspyjamas17 · 31/01/2023 12:12

Catherine is more likely post-menopausal.

SL is 58, CC is about 55 in this series.

Darius presumably sees TLR's attempts to GET Ryan as one of the biggest risks. He has no intention to ship both Ryan and TLR to Marbella. He (Darius) was so ridiculously vague about that in the van- it was a non-plan from the start as far as Darius was concerned.

Or he might want to whisk TLR away before he has a chance to create havoc with Ryan or Catherine. But Darius doesn't take chances. Look at the way he ruthlessly took out Ashley in S 1.

Sexiest psychopath that's hilarious 😂

True though, can you think of a sexier psychopath?

Afternoon all!

@Emotionalsupportviper Feathers you say?! Lordy why did you not tell me that from the off? That changes everything! (Mine’s only a glorified fascinator 😳 )
<Gears up effort to scour out a wedding in TV land>

@Rightsraptor Yes! Also in the same scene, the lady in the pink outfit was talking about the activity on Joanna’s very basic phone - “the cheapest phone you can buy” (applauds - you all spotted that too!) The only calls/texts on it were to her groomy teacher husband, but then went on to say “Then nothing till Sergeant Cawood left a voicemail” but I’m sure it was on the home phone landline that Catherine called and left a message on, as that’s how creepy teacher heard it when he got in after Jo had already been murdered.

@Janiie I feel the same re Darius! The post escape from court celebration in the van after he picked up TLR felt somewhat contrived and ‘off’ in an odd sort of way.
He was talking the talk, but his facial expressions weren’t feeling it (or as my dear old mum puts it - his smiles aren’t reaching his eyes”)
Especially coupled with the change of plans and leaving TLR on the doorstep chez Beetroot.

I definitely want to see more of Beetroot Man!

Re the different endings and SW reading through these posts - I’m imagining her muttering under her breath “Oh FFS, have we got enough time to film another ending as this lot are too good at this guessing lark…” 😆

I might have to rewatch for the 3rd time, all in the interests of research of course 😉😂

Viper, WingingIt and I have all bought hats and Viper promises to refrain from eating any more rice and confetti before the big day!

duc748 · 31/01/2023 12:35

Catherine probably left a message on the mobe and the land line.

Last person you'd mistake Darius for is Judith Chalmers.

storminabuttercup · 31/01/2023 12:35

@AntonDuPig I actually re-wound it to check about the phone message, was definitely on the house phone!

But if you were trying to phone someone urgently and they didn't answer the landline wouldn't you call the mobile as well?

I think he could have your skin off so fast you wouldn't know you'd been flayed until you looked into the mirror to see why your face felt sore.

I actually think Darius is a sexier psychopath, meself, but reach to their own.
