THE EX WIFE S 1 - sun ch5 9pm - TV PACE. NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

The Ex-Wife is a four-part series that begins on Channel 5 on Sunday 15 October at 9pm with each episode airing weekly at the same for the Autumn 2023 season. This drama was previously released on streaming service Paramount Plus on Wednesday October 12 2022. All3Media distributed internationally.

Tasha, played by Céline Buckens, appears to have everything, from her loving husband Jack (Sleepy Hollow’s Tom Mison) and their beautiful daughter Emily to their gorgeous home and seemingly perfect life.

The only problem is Jack’s ever-present ex-wife Jen, played by Janet Montgomery, calls him constantly and refuses to sever ties with his family.

But when it all comes crashing down, Tasha is left with no choice but to turn to Jen, the woman she despises, for help.

The Ex-Wife follows Tasha (Céline Buckens), who appears to lead the perfect life. The only fly in the ointment is her husband Jack’s ex-wife who is an ever-constant presence, speaking to Jack nightly and always turning up to family functions.

Then, one day Tasha returns home to find Jack (Tom Mison) and their daughter Emily missing and, at her wit’s end, she has no choice but to ask Jen (Janet Montgomery) for help. But the pair have never seen eye-to-eye, so can Tasha really trust Jack’s ex?

I saw this advertised a while back but as I don’t have paramount couldn’t see it

Looks good

Think there has been a s2 as well so hopefully that will come later

Good point @Papergirl1968

Tho if was the ex and dh and low sperm and a one shag wonder

I would prob want dna confirmation

Popping in here having started it.

What was his driving ban for? Hitting tash with his bike or something else?

Near the start Tash says she can drive but doesn’t have a license which feels like it’ll be relevant down the line.

I’m an ex wife, the very idea of having a key to my ex’s house/my former home is ridiculous.

I assume
Drink Driving as 3yrs banned is a lot

But We haven't been told why he's banned

Nothing to do with her accident as that was now 15+ mths ago

Good point about the licence. She is on driving at the beginning of e1 and crash

I quite enjoyed the first episode.

Don't particularly like any of the characters (apart maybe for Sam). But am definitely going to watch the second episode.

I'm out out tonight for drinks for dh heavenly birthday with friends

So will watch this tomorrow

Won't read from 9pm till I've seen

I've chosen this for my 9pm viewing tonight and had a revelation, Sam is played by Jordan from the Rizzle Kicks.

Oh @Blondeshavemorefun hope it's not too tough a day for you.

Thinking of you blonds
Anniversaries are always tough
Jen is so creepy ( and her sister)

Didn't the rizzle licks do a song with james cordon once?

Kicks ! Not licks

I loved Rizzle Kicks ! 😊

I don't know about a song with Corden. Sorry took the thread off at a tangent.

Hayley is it? she's Jack's sister isn't she? and Jen's best friend. They're all bloody odd if you ask me. Can't believe that Tasha left Emily on her own again after the big panic in the shop when Jen had her.

I can't believe she left Emily in the soft play area on her own either! It was bad

Emily isn’t going to be at nursery is she?

I'm not going to say any more until @Blondeshavemorefun has caught up tomorrow (love to you Blondes) but it's going to be so very hard not to look on the app and see if I could see next week's ending.

The nursery woman said she was in the pick up book though - so Sam must have given her details/photo and be in on it?

I don't mean Sam. I mean the husband.

Eek! Jack is a liar I'm sure. And what has Sam got to say.

Yes, her leaving Emily with a stranger in soft play was just ridiculous.

Not that unusual at all - I know of a few mixed race people who appear white, so it could most definitely be his.

Emily did look a bit darker in this episode, to be fair - actually she's probably played by another child as she's supposed to be 18 months or so now.
Can't Tasha see Jack is gaslighting her? And that "this isn't the way it looks" is the oldest saying in the book.
Jack and Sam are both guilty of crimes against fashion at the least - Jack for that awful grandad cardigan and Sam for the hideous multi coloured sleeveless jumper.
Jen's house looked like it was in Queensland or somewhere, definitely not Britain. Then cut to another scene and there are London buses and underground signs.
Great indoor play area with those rides though!

Dashes in. Was going to go to bed. But decided to watch this first as wanted to know what happened !!!

Recap here reelmockery.com/the-ex-wife-season-1-episode-2-recap/

Hmmmm not sure I beleived sams excuse but he did speak to family and sister

So sister drove for 3hrs. Gave flowers. Said sorry and left after a few mins

Was it jen at the play centre

Which btw looked a FANTASTIC indoor play centre and shame not one local in U.K.

Tho leaving her daughter with a total stranger why she goes on the prowl to follow the jen lookalike

I thought tonight that Emily was def skin darker and could be sams

Sam obv felt the same way and did dna with the stolen hair brush

Maybe moving house would help as well

I did wonder if taking her to nursery meant I'm taking her away for 3days/longer

So has an interview for a designer job .........

And seems Johnny didn't know he was going to New York either

What the hell is going on !!!!

Seems I was right - jack /jen has taken Emily

And going to play happy families 🙀🙀🙀

I said this last week

And never tell someone you are tracking their phone .......

So now jen is in England with Emily ?

Thank you @daffodilandtulip @the80sweregreat and @martinisforeveryone - dh anniversary sometimes gets me but his birthday doesn't

I decided a long time ago his birthday was to be for happy memories

As years go on time gets harder /stands still more. Dh should have been 50 today but will always be 37 forever

Sorry for waffle

Large Gin or two
