[Blondeshavemorefun]

This is tv paced. Sadly all will be on iPlayer - really wish they didn’t do this till all have been shown

Sighs

It’s 6 parts - on Monday and Tue x 3 weeks

Wolf is BBC One’s latest crime thriller offering, and we couldn’t be more excited.

From Happy Valley and Better toInside Man
and Crossfire,
the BBC has wowed us consistently with its recent
thriller (https://www.stylist.co.uk/tag/thriller)
output.

Now, another meaty new drama is on the way and it looks like one we’ll have no problem getting our teeth stuck into.

Wolf is set to be BBC One’s major new crime drama and it’s based on Mo Hayder’s bestselling Jack Caffery novels.
Ukweli Roach (The Midwich Cuckoos (https://www.stylist.co.uk/entertainment/tv/the-midwich-cuckoos-keeley-hawes-sky/513967)) will play DI Jack Caffery, and now that the BBC has unveiled first-look images from the show, we can’t wait for this adaptation
to unfold on the small screen. With that, here’s everything you need to know about
Wolf

The upcoming six-part series will be based on the novels (https://www.stylist.co.uk/tag/novel) of Mo Hayder, who rose to prominence within the crime thriller genre for her terrifying tales and shocking twists.

The BBC drama will blend a cold case (that has a personal connection to the lead detective) with some sinister parallel storylines.

“DI Jack Caffery is a young man searching for himself,” according to the BBC synopsis. “Obsessed with the neighbour he believes murdered his 10-year-old brother in the 90s, Jack finds himself trying to right the wrongs of others, but at what cost?

“In an isolated house in Monmouthshire, the wealthy Anchor-Ferrers family find themselves the victims of a psychopath’s cruel games, trapped and terrorised.

When the two narratives collide, it’s a thrilling, nail-biting and
deeply disturbing race against time.”

As well as Roach leading the cast as Caffery, the cast is jam-packed with familiar faces.
Sacha Dhawan (Doctor Who) and Iwan Rheon (Game Of Thrones (https://stylist.co.uk/tag/game-of-thrones)) will star as Honey and Molina, a pair of mismatched professionals who are forced together on a job.
Sian Reese-Williams (Line Of Duty (https://stylist.co.uk/tag/line-of-duty)) will star as DI Maia Lincoln, a woman with a case to prove; Juliet Stevenson (Bend It Like Beckham) will star as Matilda Anchor-Ferrers, an intelligent yet neurotic housewife; and Owen Teale (Line Of Duty, Game Of Thr
ones) will play Oliver Anchor-Ferrers, Matilda’s wealthy and well-connected husband.

Great, I'm at TV pace!

I think Molina is Theo, Hugo's older brother.
I think he was drugging Sophie (and potentially Hugo) and carrying out those weird acts during the night making it seem like they were going off the rails. When the parents had it happen when Theo wasn't there, I was wondering if he'd been with Sophie first, then come back.

Molina is fucking with Honey, he's playing dumb about the intestines. He's playing dumb about the phone line, the pay and the boss' pack. I'm pretty sure Molina is the boss, especially when he stops Honey from calling the boss.

When Honey is upstairs riling up the family, where is Molina? If I were in a situation where my colleague was going off the deep end and driving themselves mad I'd be making sure they didn't do something crazy and drastic.

I can't work out how the daughter was linked to the original case, unless I've missed something?

What do we think is the police officer's present?

Really enjoyed it. Stick with it if you're not sure!

I was beginning to think Molina was the boss but then why would he put in that note that he was earning more than Honey . He would know what he was paying Honey . But then maybe that's another twist ...

I do think Molina is not as stupid as he makes out

Possibly Hugo's brother. That would be a twist

But then what did the family do to molina /Hugo family

In his note , Oliver said something to the effect of 'secrets we have never shared' .

I think I'm getting too invested in this !!

I'm on episode 2 of this. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I do tend to take things a bit literally. Is this some kind of spoof? I'm watching the two baddies cleaning up the house, and find myself completely unable to take them seriously.
Maybe it's just me, as I tend not to bat an eyelid when viewing gritty programmes!

@JMSA you need to watch the next episode

Aah, ok. Thank you.

Its more black comedy /horror

Yeah, definitely some black humour in there. That just ruins it for me - I like my horror serious! - but will persist a bit longer and see how it goes

It's very good @JMSA

I'm almost tempted to binge to find out the ending ........

I've finished it and found some of it a bit horrific, some of it ridiculous and overall really had no idea what was going on! But I enjoyed it. It was different. What a romp.

I love the fact it has Ukweli Roach in it

Midwich cuckoos - Annika and wolf

How lucky are we !!!

Blondes drools

I almost fainted @Blondeshavemorefun 😱

Ha ha ha @butterpuffed

I know !!

😱😱😱

I'm on episode 5 and kinda bored now. Just want it to end so I can see how it pans out. I mean, it's ok. But I wouldn't be raving about it or recommending it to others.

Bored ?? Noooooo
I can't wait for tomorrows 5

Finished! I'm no good at pacing myself
The ending's good. I didn't see it coming.
Enjoy!

Shame on you @JMSA

Binging 😛😛

I’ve finished it and thought it was great.
Not sure what was going in half the time but it’s original if nothing else.
Also paced well. Fast enough to keep you interested but made sure key players were explained well enough.
Watched the first Reunion episode which was shite. Way too fast to follow or care about the characters.

I know. With telly AND food. I'm just so bad

Oh wow. Heart was banging at the end

Who is the dead person ? Is it the son ?

Ok. So who is molina ? Is he bones ? Tho they said bones was in Bristol

Or does molina just like killing people and he's the one in the white suit and gas mask killing the furniture moving lady

Or is he hugh?

Or the elder son?

We all thought he was the thick one and honey playing him but seem not 😂

He can't be boss or else the family would recognise him

Having 2 coppers coming to the door was genius having the same names 😂😂

I am Totally loving this. Keeps us on our toes and roll on tomorrow night

What will be the high twist

Still an episode behind so far. How can Honey be an actor in a TV advert? Won’t be run the risk of people who he’s held hostage and tortured identifying him?!

Also I don’t know what kind of raves the youth of today go to but I’m pretty sure there wouldn’t be a guy in a hazmat suit pretending to disembowel someone!

I wondered if Molina is the older brother but isn’t that a bit obvious?

I'm Getting so excited for tonight's. Hope o won't be dismayed
