This looks right up my street

6 parts on Mon Tue wed for 2w

Channel 5 has announced that new mystery drama, The Wives, will start on Monday, September 16. Starring Jo Joyner, Tamzin Outhwaite, and Angela Griffin as sisters-in-law Beth, Sylvia and Natasha,

the six-part series follows the tumultuous aftermath of their sister-in-law Annabelle Morgan's disappearance during a family vacation in Malta.

As the story unfolds, viewers will see the characters' lives thrown into turmoil as Annabelle vanishes, leaving her husband Charlie and daughter Sky (www.walesonline.co.uk/all-about/sky) behind. With her phone discovered at a c
lifftop, authorities presume a fatal accident.

Fast-forwarding, the Morgans reconvene for a trip abroad, aiming to put the past behind them. Tensions surface when Charlie introduces his new, much younger girlfriend who bears an uncanny resemblance to the missing Annabelle

Doubt creeps in among the family members, leading Beth, Sylvia, and Natasha to question the nature of Annabelles disappearance and ponder if foul play was involved.

Resolving to uncover the truth, they embark on their own sleuthing mission.
In a gripping trailer for the show, confusion and suspicion mounts as Beth Morgan voices her disquiet: "Jade has showed up on the anniversary of Annabelle's death, wearing her clothes. It's just not normal! ", reports the Mirror (www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/channel-5-confirms-release-date-33631990)
.

Beth confesses to her family that she suspects Jade played a role in Annabelle's untimely end.

As they shadow Jade and Charlie across Malta, it becomes evident that secrets are being kept about the 'true' events of what transpired.

The Wives is a brand new six-part whodunnit style drama coming to Channel 5 in mid-September, with a star-studded cast including Jo Joyner, Tamzin Outhwaite, and Angela Griffin.

The series follows the Morgan family as they try to move on one year after the disappearance of a family member (Annabelle). Jo, Tamzin and Angela play three sisters-in-laws Beth, Sylvia and Natasha, as they attempt to piece together the shock disappearance of their other sister-in-law, Annabelle, in Malta.

@LemongrassLollipop Jade said of course she knew, about Charlie and Sylvia, but then added something about teenage fling or similar. He’s passed it off as pre his marriage rather than quite recent.

Sorry, but this is absolute dross. The worst channel 5 drama yet, and that's saying something!

xxSideshowAuntSallyxx · 24/09/2024 07:01

This slightly addictive 😂. I also love the fact that the 3 main characters are all played by normal looking middle-aged women.

The scenery is lovely too, so tempted to look at Malta for a holiday now.

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/09/2024 09:03

@Teentrauma it's not that bad

I'm Enjoying

I want to know who killed Annabelle as I think she is dead

Last night’s episode really was bad, but I’ll be back watching tonight.
I do think they’ve stretched this out far too much and it could have been a much shorter version. I was starting to look at the news etc on IPad last night in amongst it all.

martinisforeveryone · 24/09/2024 10:50

It is, it’s awfully slow and drawn out. JJ is very much in the Sally Lindsay role too and it’s so predictable and soooo Ch5.

I just want to know who’s been messaging Sky and what the denouement is, then we can all go Oh and move on.

Teentrauma · 24/09/2024 14:14

JJ is very much in the Sally Lindsay role too and it’s so predictable and soooo Ch5.

Definitely! She's so annoying!

WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout · 24/09/2024 15:04

Just watched it. Far fetched but am enjoying it. That Luca (?) is dodgy I think. What is in the bag? Where has Sky gone? So many questions!

butterpuffed · 24/09/2024 15:38

My mind kept wandering last night as it wasn't very interesting , but I'll still watch the last two as I want to know what happened to Annabelle .

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/09/2024 15:40

Looked like casino chips in bag

The best bit was the drunk tennis. They would have got thrown off the courts in a club like that. But they actually looked like they were really enjoying it!

Frozenberries · 24/09/2024 16:33

It’s the worst slowest drama but I’m invested now so I will keep watching!

martinisforeveryone · 24/09/2024 17:03

I think the best bits in a way, have been Jade being kind to Sky, but, whether that's a ruse, or whether it'll last who knows. It doesn't look so good for her that Sky's disappeared on her watch. She said I'll lock the door and don't open it to anyone didn't she.

As the other wives have got to know her seems like they actually all get on ok, but is she all that she seems. It's a tricky one, but whoever of them said it, is right, everything's fine until the men get involved.

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/09/2024 19:43

I won't be watching till +1 and 19 so will avoid thread from 9

Frankie’s getting a bit too stressed out if Sky is only his niece…..

BlackBean2023 · 24/09/2024 21:27

I keep falling asleep watching this - just want it to end now Confused

friendlycat · 24/09/2024 21:57

Well that got marginally better at the end, but rather predictable.

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/09/2024 22:38

Omg. She's alive !!!

So where the hell has she been this last year and how could any Kim do that to their daughter

Obv seems I'm the only one excited for tomorows finale episode

CockneyWheezer · 24/09/2024 22:40

I’m sticking with it, but my God it’s shite 😂

Shame, as I really like the leading ladies. The men are dreadful, though. Wooden actors and hard to see why any of ‘the wives’ would be attracted to these absolute drips.

The script is dire, too. DIRE.

justjuggling · 24/09/2024 23:02

I’m sticking with it too. Am curious why Tom is calling Sylvie.

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/09/2024 23:03

@CockneyWheezer I'm
Rather attracted to the hubby from ghosts 😂

OP posts:
friendlycat · 24/09/2024 23:20

Yes why is Tom calling Sylvie so much?

justjuggling · 25/09/2024 01:09

Maybe Annabelle has been with him in Australia?

Blondeshavemorefun · 25/09/2024 08:20

Maybe Charlie is blaming Tom for the stolen money

OP posts:
LemongrassLollipop · 25/09/2024 09:10

Does Tom know that Sylvie is with them? Wonder if he is trying to get a message to the wives via Sylvie ?

Looking forward to seeing how it's all ends tonight !
