Hijack - Idris Elba

[TheUnquestionedAnswer]

Just watched the first two episodes on Apple TV+. thought it was really good, anyone else? Can't wait for next one!

Loving it so far

I am going to rewatch all 3 episodes again until the 4th one is released next week. That's how good it is.. A good void to fill in the loss of Succession I reckon...

Discovered this yesterday and watched all 3!

Ooh it's sooo good!!!

the staggered release is what Apple TV did with the Slow Horses books, cunning
Loving Idris xxxx

Ooh today’s episode! What an absolute thriller. 👏👏👏

When everyone has watched it I have questions but don’t want to spoil it for anyone?

Just watched today’s. I feel wrung out

it's brilliant but you can see its winding down for the grand finale x

How did the PM get the list of demands if the hijacks original plan was to not communicate with the ground and nobody to know about the hijack?

was there one real bullet and the shot instead of idris

@LittleMrsPretty Did you read the demands? As a veteran LOD fan, you need to pause and read the screen 😉 The demands were delivered by a person who may be unknown to the Home Sec.

potential spoiler alert don’t read on if you don’t want to know what was on the letter

The demand is for the immediate release of two people ‘wrongly imprisoned’ or everyone on the plane will die (presumably by it crashing) I assume it was the stabbed fella’s Dad who was imprisoned as he mentioned something akin to that to his Mum on the phone?

It’s absolute tosh with hammy acting but it’s very exciting so I’m enjoying it 😁

It’s so good!

How did that fella get stabbed? I don’t remember that all.

Was it not the guy who was trying to get the medication for his dad?

Loving this show! Yes, the guy who was helping his uncle got some scissors from the medical pack and stabbed at him in a scuffle. I'm presuming the blonde who was snippy to the family is the one who has been killed.

Spoiler... when I saw the picture on the boys phone of his mum, Elaine, I recognised the actress (Unforgotten) so she will definite have a part to play in the upcoming episodes.

Anyone else think there is zero chemistry between max beesley and the actress playing Sam's ex? I wonder if Sam's son has been kidnapped?? I hate that we have to wait til Wednesday for the next episode!

Why did the military planes just fly off after deciding not to bomb the plane? Surely they would have escorted the plane to the edge of Romanian airspace if not all the way to London?

As said absolute tosh and terrible acting, they must have spent most of the budget on Idris Elba.
Plot holes you could drive an elephant through, on top of a double decker bus, wearing a top hat.

I am literally counting down the days til the next episode

I think it's like minus 100 chemistry, all very odd. No idea where it's going, and the acting isn't the best but I'm enjoying it anyway!

@Whyisitdarkalready yep as soon as I clocked his mum, I thought this is going somewhere….

That plane would have surely been shot down, no way would they have allowed it go any further.

I think its brilliant can't wait for the next episode.

Can't wait till next week.

There is no way you get to report a hijacking to control then, 5 minutes later, report it was a mistake and the airport controller accept that.

I know it's fiction but plot holes like that make you wonder about the people who wrote it.

But most people didn't accept it?
maybe the first guy in TC was in on the plot.
