Chat away to your heart’s content about invisible quads, terrible children’s clothing designs that are apparently groundbreaking, Stephen’s bizarre whispering and much more!

Tim looking for a tagine. Sally “it’s under that cooker”
How many cookers does their kitchen have?

I was shouting at Tim to lock the bloody doors. He didn’t listen. 🙄

Shurleyknot · 09/10/2023 21:02

@Andthereyougo that is men for you!

MrsDanversChickenSandwich · 09/10/2023 21:03

I'll be fumin' if Tim's actually dead.

Two more points:

1)Ken Barlow/actor who plays Ken looks shamazing for 91. Looks a good 15 years younger.

2)When people on soaps need to alter travel plans they phone up and are immediately put through to a travel agent who knows exactly what they're talking about.

Viviennemary · 09/10/2023 21:12

Is Tim dead. I need to know.

Honeyroar · 09/10/2023 21:18

Yes good point about the travel agent!🤣. Is he going to have a pop at Jenny, do you think? Or just do a runner?

ps, he can’t half run quickly and quietly! He kept popping up behind Tim like Mr Ben’s shop assistant!

thenightsky · 09/10/2023 21:19

I'll be cross if Tim is dead when they could have used the opportunity to get rid of some dead wood.

Said same to my other half this evening. He would have agreed had I not been looking down at his trousers at the time. Meh Im peri.

JemimaTab · 09/10/2023 22:08

If Tim is dead just to serve the purposes of a character as absolutely fundamentally shite as Stephen, I will be fkn furious.

bizzey · 09/10/2023 22:19

Tim can't be dead ..he is 1/2 way through his tagine cooking !

So Tim's wallet fell out near where body is found ,so they will start looking for Tim soon.
Tied up in Stephens tie that Jenny made a point of talking about earlier .

I wish they would put little signs up on the screen saying. "flashback " or something!

When it started ,I kept thinking I had missed an episode !

Fiddlersgreen · 09/10/2023 22:25

Oh it was his wallet. I was going to ask what fell out his pocket as I thought it was his phone but then his phone was in the car.

I hope Tim’s not dead but I can’t imagine where he could be if not

Honeyroar · 09/10/2023 22:30

Also - why is there always a dodgy phone signal when someone discovers a murder and tries to ring the police? And why is there always a convenient wood for bodies?
And surely Stephen would have changed his ticket to another destination?

Honeyroar · 09/10/2023 22:31

I thought I’d missed an episode too! It didn’t help
that there hasn’t been one on Friday. Got me thinking that there must have been!

lollipoprainbow · 09/10/2023 22:54

And why is no one ever around? The canal was very quiet.

Tim's in the boot of his petrol-covered cab in the middle of the forest.

Our Craigie will find him (perhaps they could use Tiny as a sniffer-horse) I'm sure.

Not sure why Sarah is bruised and battered in the flash-forward, is Stephen going to attack her too?

JemimaTab · 09/10/2023 23:37

Also, how come Craig seems to be somehow a senior type in CID? He’s barely out of nappies. Don’t they have training these days - a 2-3 year training programme for instance, under supervision, shadowing a senior officer for instance, before they’re let loose on the public? Don’t they send them to Hendon college these days? (Is Hendon college still going?)
Although given the state of the police these days, maybe his fast-track to the upper echelons is accurate. God help us all.

MillicentTrilbyHiggins · 09/10/2023 23:45

Why tf are we getting "flash forwards"? The flash backs are annoying enough but why are we being shown things that haven't happened.

Like some of the others I thought I'd missed an episode.

eggandonion · 09/10/2023 23:50

I think Craig is very good at having a hunch.

Bagpuss2022 · 10/10/2023 00:10

Craig is a wasteful lump maybe they super selected him for fast track CID school as there’s so much crime on his street

JemimaTab · 10/10/2023 01:51

That is true I suppose, but then most people seem to get away with their crimes (Gary for example).

Craig’s pantomime retching at the “body” was fairly amusing though.

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 10/10/2023 05:34

The first detective at the scene wouldn’t be ArCraigy.

WiddlinDiddlin · 10/10/2023 06:35

Stand out moments from tonight...

ArCraigy nearly puking.

Sally 'he's a dead man'...

I think they missed a trick, ScaryBlondCop should have told ArCraigy 'don't you DARE puke on my crime scene n00b...' It's like they've never met real CID...

Not only is Tims wallet at the crime scene, but his prints are on that roof-box, as he helped Stephen put it on the car roof (We never did find out how Stephen got the bloody thing OFF and into the cut without assistance or damage to Orrrrdrehs car!)...

So if Schrodinger's cabbie IS still alive... will he stagger home only to be fitted up for the body in the box.

And why didn't anyone mention that the 'tip off' phone number goes to TIms voicemail, or share the number at which point ArCraigy would say 'thats my ex's dads phone ...'

Couldn't detect their way out of their own pants that lot!

aflix · 10/10/2023 07:30

Tim was doing the rounds on morning telly yesterday. I don't think it's a spoiler to say he was quite chirpy when asked if he was dead.

eggandonion · 10/10/2023 08:31

Would fingerprints survive 6 months in the canal? Its very exciting isnt it.

Clawdy · 10/10/2023 08:53

Don't we need a new thread?? Where is WomanStanleyWoman??

Deadringer · 10/10/2023 09:11

Tim is definitely still alive in the boot of the car, that's why Stephen has to get out of the UK ASAP, before he is found and blabs to the police. I thought it was dirt on Sarah's face, maybe she will find Tim and have to drag him through the woods pursued by her enraged uncle? I actually enjoyed the last couple of episodes, looking forward to the next one.
