Spoilers...

Well, I was very disappointed with the ending. This series is so good, the chemistry was off the scale but......I want to know what happens next! How does Danny explain everything to the police? Does Pete survive? Did Evie mean to shoot him or was it an accident? Did Pete actually pull the trigger himself? Surely Evie's dad will be ok as the hitman had a sniper rifle! The loose ends need thing up! Arrrrggghh. So frustrating.

I'm only on episode 2 and it’s annoying me that the primary school teacher isn’t spending time planning and marking! I don’t think I can actually watch it to the end.

I'm on the last episode, I must admit it highlights the very worst qualities in people, no point to the stalker plot line, all in all Evie is a bunny boiler, Becca improves on you, Pete is a total wimp, and Danny although easy on the eye has his head screwed on the wrong way and absolutely no common sense. I'll be glad when I reach the end.

Yeah, it was shite!
The dialogue was particularly awful!

spiderlight · 13/12/2023 15:00

I watched it all but I don't really know why! The acting was really poor and so many little things annoyed me - I nearly gave up a few minutes into the first episode when they were putting out ornaments and plants within about ten minutes of arriving in the new house, and the whole storyline with the diamond theives was ridiculous. I won't bother with series 2, if there is one.

The uncanny valley alternate reality Leeds was really odd adn i couldn't face watching the second episode!. I also disliked Sex Education for it's non determined UK / US location so that's an editorial choice that doesn't work for me.

Bloody hell I only just realised that's Janine Duvitski (Abigails party, One Foot in the Grave) as the neighbour

OutOfSyncWithReality · 13/12/2023 23:54

Well that was a load of old shite.

BoredofBlonde · 14/12/2023 00:08

A policeman who doesnt have a ring doorbell to see his perv neighbour going into his home, leaves a key in the plant pot for anyone to use, and the nosy neighbour doesn't let on about Perv going into policeman's house?

Okay then...

Hohofortherobbers · 18/12/2023 13:39

Well that's 6 hours of my life I won't get back. The bank robbery sub plot should have been better tied up. The reason for Danny keeping Ethan a secret should have been made more persuasive, rather than just racked into the final episode (mother was a witness??). Not sure why Becka was so appalled that Danny had got Evie pregnant, surely that's an occupational hazard of letting your husband shag other women? Please no season 2!!!!

ganglion · 18/12/2023 14:18

I thought it was absolutely awful. I'll never get that time back!

Puppupandaway · 18/12/2023 18:33

Completely agree @Hohofortherobbers

Well I liked it. I would like to see a season 2 just to see the new dynamics between the neighbours with a baby in the mix and watch Danny make more car crash decisions.

@MoChridhe you should check out the original Dutch version "The Swingers" on Channel 4 Walter Presents - it has 4 seasons!

Thank you! I will watch over Xmas.

Slightly unrelated but … I was thinking right from the beginning Evie’s sister looked a lot like Becka. Anyone else?

My other thought was Pete’s female colleague was similar to Evie before the miscarriage. And I reckon she would cheat on him the same way.

Samcro · 20/12/2023 10:03

finished it and well that was odd.
the pete actor is dreadful, he was equally bad in how to get away with murder.
how did Evie do a pregnancy test so soon?
why didn't anyone tell them Alan had collapsed in their house. surely the nosy neighbour would have.
I am getting fed up with watching a series and there is no real end.

Hottenan · 21/12/2023 23:58

It started with promise but got more silly towards the end. The last episode was ridiculous.
