THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR. MON&TUE 9pm - CH4 - TV PACE NO SPOILERS

232 replies

THIS IS A TV PACED THREAD

New drama. On Mon and Tue for 3 weeks

the six part series is an addictive, emotional roller coaster and looks at how we never know what goes on behind closed doors.

When Evie (Eleanor Tomlinson) and Pete (Alfred Enoch) move into an upscale neighbourhood, they find themselves in a world of curtain twitching and status anxiety.

But soon find friendship in the shape of the couple next door, alpha traffic cop Danny (Sam Heughan) and his wife, glamorous yoga instructor Becka (Jessica De Gouw).

As time goes on, these two couples get increasingly close to each other and one fateful night, become sexually entangled in a way that will change their lives forever…

Starring Sam Heughan (Outlander, Suspect), Eleanor Tomlinson (The Outlaws, Poldark), Jessica De Gouw (Pennyworth, Our Man from Jersey) and Alfred Enoch (Tigers, How To Get Away with Murder), the first looks have been released for The Couple Next Door which is coming this Autumn to stream and watch live on Channel 4.

Produced by Eagle Eye Drama (Suspect, Professor T, Before We Die), The Couple Next Door is a deliciously dark, psychological drama, exploring the claustrophobia of suburbia and the fallout of chasing your deepest desires. Directed by Dries Vos (Suspect, Professor T) and written by David Allison (Bedlam, Marcella)

Robbie found pete due to his article he wrote

Thi he was silly grassing Danny up

So that's the gun that gets shot in e1 beginning and we see tonight

I did feel sorry for pete being told no sperm at all

Evie def wanted a baby hence why said was on the pill

Dan y has super sperm

Yes the deaf boy was conceived before he met his wife hence why older then their son

I think I wondered because they didn’t show Robbie looking at the other journalist just Pete.

It was a bit boring before but livened up last night. Danny can't do right for doing wrong , in trouble with Pete, with his wife , with the law and with Evie !

MoChridhe · 14/12/2023 20:01

Has Danny caught feelings for Evie? He was dreaming about shagging both her and Becka and seemed indecisive. Also I don't think Evie cares about her friendship with Becka.

purpleme12 · 14/12/2023 20:03

Evie just cares about Danny and getting pregnant!!

Is tonight’s the last one?

purpleme12 · 14/12/2023 21:24

Yes

Rummikub · 14/12/2023 21:33

“She was very insistent” 😂

purpleme12 · 14/12/2023 21:44

God Evie is crazy

Rummikub · 14/12/2023 21:48

She is! Was she already or did the miscarriage send her over?

i suspect she was already. With her family.

MoChridhe · 14/12/2023 21:49

Becka too understanding but I guess she is responsible for the whole mess

purpleme12 · 14/12/2023 21:51

Rummikub · 14/12/2023 21:48

i suspect she was already. With her family.

She seemed pretty normal till she got in with the neighbours!

Rummikub · 14/12/2023 21:59

Becca is too understanding. It was quite refreshing tho that she held the blame on Danny and not Evie.

I don’t understand why Evie did that. and where did the dad disappear to ??

purpleme12 · 14/12/2023 22:07

Evie's dad and family have managed to turn religion creepy

Rummikub · 14/12/2023 22:12

Amen

Romeiswheretheheartis · 14/12/2023 22:14

That was ridiculous. What was the point of the bent cops storyline?!

The dad got arrested. He was led off in handcuffs for shooting the guy with the long rifle (assuming he was one of Spencer's henchmen?).

Rummikub · 14/12/2023 22:33

I did see that. But I wondered where he was when all the aggro was happening in the woods between the couples.

I wondered where religious dad was after he shot Kyle

Why he wasn't in the woods running after the other 4

I first I thought religious dad had shot pete as he was holding a gun to his daughter evie

Then I thought pete tried to kill his self

But when saw the smirk on Evie's face and put in car reliesed she had shot him

But she doesn't care as she is preg

BECCA seems very understanding

Assume Danny will be caught be police for the robbery unless his mate didn't blab him

Morel of story

NEVER SHAG FRIENDS 😂

Honestly I didn't know who shot him!

But I realise now it was Evie.
