Whoop. S2 is back of suspect

If you haven't seen s1 don't read anymore

I don't want you to read spoilers

S1 was good

Was James Nesbit as cop Danny who seeked vengeance for his murdered daughter

S1 thread here

www.mumsnet.com/talk/telly_addicts/4569936-suspect-ch4-9pm-sun-to-wed-tv-pace-no-spoilers

And last episode recap to refresh memory here

www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/suspect-ending-explained-channel-4/

S 2 is 8 parts and in 30min segments

Wed 17 1&2
Thur 18 3&4
Wed 24 5&6
Thur 25 7&8

Anyway s2 James Nesbitt is in Prison and is about his ex wife - when client Jon fallow makes a disturbed confession under hypnotised she sets out to save a life when she couldn’t save her daughter

Jon confesses to murder. But not one. Many

Suzanne aka marie is full of doubt after her daughter murder

Thanks ! I've now watched the other half hour .

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/07/2024 20:57

Fab. Now for 3&4

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/07/2024 22:33

Her ex def knows something but don't think he would beg her killed

When weirinf about the boat and fingers with nicotine I knew he knew who he was

Don't get why the wife was helping her and don't really R.E.M. the black police lady

So series s2 is linked to s1

The patient who spoke to her then protected her

Was that Stuart form EASTENDERS

I think I’m out on this.

I’d like to give a more erudite opinion, but it’s just…pants. What a waste of talent.

Blondeshavemorefun · 23/07/2024 13:23

Oh. I'm enjoying. Can't wait for 5&5 wed

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 24/07/2024 21:33

So does that mean the lady in s1 Jackie I think - didn't kill Christina like dad/James Nesbit thought

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 24/07/2024 21:33

But she did say it was suicide when was murder so still dodgy

deeahgwitch · 26/07/2024 00:03

Why is Richard the police man involved with the murderer and allowing the women be killed ?

I agree. First two were good, if implausible, then rubbish. Why did such good actors agree to appear?

butterpuffed · 26/07/2024 14:43

Just finished the last two episodes . The whole thing started off well but last night's were awful and unbelievable , especially the scene on the bus where Suzanne was shouting her head off about the murders as if nobody else could hear !

Agree

Just seen 7&8. I didn't really understand the ending

It started off really well but last 2 crap

So from what I gather as can't find a recap yet - it all linked to her daughters death in s1

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 26/07/2024 22:15

I also wanted to brush her hair

OP posts:
butterpuffed · 27/07/2024 08:28

I think they were running away because whoever was in charge of the murders , would be after them when it was discovered Jon was dead .

I wondered that too.

Why are the police allowing the women be killed when they know the murderer.

And the Gina Mc Kee character- very strange.

martinisforeveryone · 01/08/2024 11:43

I've started watching to catch up. It's very dark isn't it and yes, so much of it's implausible. I can't recall series one, so just watching this as a stand alone, although I wouldn't rule out that I did watch and just don't remember any of it 🙄

martinisforeveryone · 01/08/2024 11:54

Too late to edit above, but had to go away and check. We've watched them all. I was convinced that watching on the catch up app there was more to come. It was a very. very odd way to end a series, both in credibility and even as a cliffhanger. I feel like a single paragraph saying this is what was behind it all, would suffice for me.

deeahgwitch · 01/08/2024 20:43

I hadn't realised Season 2 was over with no loose ends tied up 😮
There was no denouement.
For flip sake Angry
Like:
Why were the girls being killed ?
Why would a senior police officer be involved in getting girls killed ?

I thought there would be more episodes this week and questions would be answered.

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/08/2024 23:32

Yes I felt s2 ending was naff

But did mean - I think - that Jackie didn't kill daughter and James Nesbit /aka daddy did murder Jackie for no reason

Tho she did bodge the autopsy

This has to be the most awful programme- it's unbelievable, zips through at record speed, each episode is the same with her talking to someone getting mad then getting them to help her. It's absolutely nuts. We've done 5 and don't know if we cba either the last three🤷‍♀️

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/08/2024 02:17

I thought 1/6 was good

It was the last 2 rubbish

OP posts:
NowWhatUsernameShallIHave · 03/08/2024 00:08

I’m watching it because Ive started it but the storyline is absolute pants

it just doesn’t feel cohesive and just very rushed and not plausible at all

The acting leaves a lot to be desired but partly because of the storyline

Absolutely

why is is all rushed? It’s like each new character gets half an hour screen time and then onto the next

not enjoying 30mins either - each episode is about 20 mins - what’s the point

sausawyee · 03/08/2024 01:08

Ok we finished it. It's lined up for series 3 isn't it ? 😂

newnamethanks · 03/08/2024 07:55

It's terrible, what a waste of a reasonable cast. Really very poor and a complete waste of everyone's time.
