Haha we've not long watched series 1 of this as we never seemed to have time! At least I won't need a recap 🫣

qpid5tunt · 02/05/2024 08:40

I can't wait for this. Series 1 was very good.

Watched the first one tonight blondes and enjoyed it

WeAreTheTreaclePeople · 05/05/2024 22:50

Just watched the first episode. Can someone explain the whole thing about the set up with the drugs/gun? Why dud Debs want the guy locked up? And what was Chris' logic for backing out when he found the gun instead of drugs? Sorry for the stupid question, I know it's probably obvious!

Buntytree · 05/05/2024 23:52

I’ve watched 2 episodes and really enjoying it! I’m glad series 2 of this has been released as after finishing Blue Lights I had nothing else to watch!

I quite like all the flawed characters but yes surely an experienced PC would've thought this is strange, a conveniently unlocked garage with a gun sat there in and envelope and just left it.

Also surely if doing a raid for alleged drugs they have to have armed police and back up. Just seemed a bit daft in an otherwise good episode.

LadyEloise1 · 06/05/2024 15:37

Another very good depressing police drama ( like Blue Lights ) and yet I still watch and am sad anout the state of the world.

What the police have to contend with 🙄
And I know there are bad apples.

LunaNorth · 06/05/2024 20:09

I love this but I didn’t understand the drugs/gun thing.

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/05/2024 22:45

Right have seen e1

I was a bit confused over drugs /fun but recap explains it

This is why I love a recap

The drug dealer is obv something thing to do debs ex and father of her child -

Guessing that's why she wants him banged up and why she couldn't do the pull over in the car and why she wants him banged up as in her way /being an arse ex maybe

I don't R.E.M. Rachel's ex Steve - what did he do to her and why does her boss want her to complain about him

Sad to see the girl from s1 still on drugs and no money

I thought end of a- Chris have her money to sort her sled out

She obv spend on Drugs and back on the habit

Not sure why they all think Chris is a nob head at work

And won't take him off responses d work days

Seems Rachel also wants fo get off response

Does no one like working response

Why is Chris is so much debt ? And paying for communion dress by self

Plus at 95 and 60 and 105 (will he get there By 11 sat) even stealing his dads money .....

£260 is a lot for a little white dress for his daughter

But all in all. Was good and enjoyed and can't wait for e2 next week

Spending £250 on a First Communion dress is daft. ☹️
I can see why you'd want to get out of Responding at night.
It's grim.

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/05/2024 09:32

Yes seems awful job

But horrible his boss said no he can't go into day duty and wouid be refused

Janiie · 07/05/2024 12:18

I don't understand why so much emphasis is put on 'the day job'. I've worked nights, yes you can feel crap but from a childcare point of view they're actually quite good, school drops and picks up etc much easier as a 12hr day shift you're reliant on others.

Also nights aren't 7 nights a week, you get days off obviously.
