999: What Happened Next

[purpleme12]

Anyone watching this?

Just finished watching episode 2

That man Qureshi

Really scary. Just stabbed someone completely unprovoked then went on to steal someone else's phone and hit him, then that footage where he just threw hot coffee over someone and started chasing him! Must have been really scary

And that 17 year old who died 😞

I didn't know blood tests could actually tell you that he was drunk at the actual time of the crash

I didn't see the programme I'm afraid but normally watch it.

When I worked in A&E years ago, we used to collect blood samples and could get an alcohol reading from it. I 'think' the police then used an algorithm to work out time since crash, body weight, how much alcohol could be excreted in that time period to then work out blood alcohol level at time of crash. I might be completely wrong, but I always assumed that was how they did it.

It was awful. Especially the young girl that was killed due to idiot bloke.

But, my God, that programme is twice as long as it needs to be. So much recapping and repetition.

I agree about the re capping but it is very interesting. I didn’t realise the girl in the crash didn’t actually know the driver. I’m not victim blaming but what on earth was she thinking getting into a car with a complete stranger.

That woman who had those men come into her bedroom and put his hand over her mouth 😞😞😞

It’s to do with “second screening” so many people are on their phones while watching tv, that tv makers are adapting their shows. Lots of repetition is a key thing they do.

Really?!

Yep. Richard and Marina did a section on it on The Rest is Entertainment podcast.

Kept getting confused which one they were talking about this week as they were both to do with cars
