Not knowing what the other couple are planning

Looking forward to this.

I'm looking forward to this. I've read the book and enjoyed it.

Plus, it's James Norton.

Yes be good to see him in something after happy valley

The new dramas are flowing thick and fast , thanks @Blondeshavemorefun .

I used to like James Norton as a crimebuster/vicar in Grantchester , he was soo different to his character in Happy Valley !!

He was also really good in McMafia

Yes @butterpuffed the joy of a new year

I couldn't get into that

Starts tonight 9pm

And e2 tomorrow

All the episodes are already up on ITV Hub

They always are

But this thread is for tv pace 😀

Joining for the thread to enjoy the discussion but watching now on ITVX. I won't give anything away don't worry. There's another thread that's sponsored that gives some warnings and I might not actually be able to watch but I'll see how I go. I'm watching for James Norton and Cornwall, in that order.

Makes you wonder how a mix up like this happened

Wouldn’t there be wristbands on the baby with the mothers name on?

Dd had one. She's now nearly 8

Think she has two actually. Ankle and wrist

Did I miss something about David ?

Why would he need some quiet so didn't go on the beach trip

Miles needs to tone it down

Miles is very controlling it seems and I think he's telling his wife to withhold contact.

And would the hospital tell the other parents the address? No one would want to risk them turning up on the doorstep like Miles did

Theo hit another boy and gets kicked out of his childcare setting ?

Really

So Maddie and Lucy knew each other in the hospital

Sure the nanny will be overjoyed to suddenly have two kids to look after and be a nanny share

Not !!

So he wants both kids

Too many plot gaps for me. Won’t bother finishing. Though James Norton will be missed.

Read the book. It was ok as a beach holiday read.
