FOREVER HOME - Mon 14/tue15/wed 16 &week after ch 5 - TV PACE NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

New 6 part drama starting mon 14 sept

On Mon Tue Wed and same following week

Based on book by Graham Norton

Is there no end to Graham Norton’s talent? Known for his quick wit and charm as a chat show host, he's also the author of several bestselling novels, one of which is about to be brought to life on the small screen. Forever Home is the "twisty, dark romp" that's making its way to Channel 5 - and we have a strong feeling that mystery fans are going to love it.

It focuses on a wife Carol , just settling into a second marriage when she makes a horrible discovery.

So horrible that she begins to suspect her husband is hiding a (very) dark secret - in fact, she thinks he might have committed murder.

When her older partner Robert's dementia worsens, Carol Crottie starts to wonder if the reason he won’t leave his home has something to do with the whereabouts of his first wife, who ran off with Robert’s brother 20 years ago, leaving behind their two young children Kaden and Sally.

"When Robert’s anxiety about the house’s hidden basement, rises, Carol’s curiosity is piqued as she and her mother investigate the whereabouts of Robert’s first wife, Joan.

But the secrets Robert has kept will take a long time to untangle."

Robert her new husband told her about his first wife running away might just be a lie.

It might also explain why he's so reluctant to sell the family home.

A great cast including cast that includes the likes of Amy Nuttall (Emmerdale (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/soaps/emmerdale/)), Douglas Henshall (Shetland (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/shetland-season-11-confirmed-newsupdate/)), Denise Welch (Coronation Street (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/soaps/coronation-street/)), Lewis Cope (Strictly Come Dancing (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/entertainment/strictly-come-dancing-2026-cast-line-up/)), Jenny Walser (Heartstopper (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/heartstopper-forever-netflix-review/)), Shane Zaza (Happy Valley), Kevin Whately (Lewis) and James Baxter.

Don’t go in the basement …………..

Thanks for thread

Marking place.

Thank you.

Thank you

Will there be a body in the basement

if there is then surely be easy to tell if wife or not

Thank you x

I have read most of Graham Nortons books including this one. They are really good. Impressed that he can write. So looking forward to this

Yes I’ve read one of his but can’t rem which one. Sure I did a thread about it when was made into tv

They made a tv series of Holding. That’s what got me started on the books.

That’s it. Well done. 4yrs ago

This starts tonight and on mon tue wed

Seems ok so far but def suss that wife ran away with brother but who knows

Only just started it. I predict that the ending will be they really did run away after all. Not a spoiler as I've no idea.

Nice old house

Yes not sure which way this will go

seems too obvious it’s her body

Seen the body now

There must be more twists to come as the corpse was to be expected.

Either she will hide it from his kids

Or it’s not her and a random body

But intrigues me enough to watch tonight

I had just finished reading the book last week. I had no idea it was coming to TV. The book was excellent. If I hadn't read the book so recently I may have enjoyed the TV series. But it is so different to the book I only watched 20 minutes and switched off.

Why do they change things from books

e2 starts in 5

I liked her spooky dream.
Is the surrogate faking being pregnant maybe?

What a wicked web we weave

Also amazed body has been in freezer for years /decades and never defrosted with a power cut

So hubby had it off with his live in lovers mum

Daughter Sally is a mad woman trying on wedding dresses when it's obvious he's not going to leave his wife

Then goes to his house and meets wife under sneaky pretences

The son hates his new partner and do anything to get no 7 sold

£2k a month to surrogate seems a lot. Didn't think could pay apart from expenses

Wondering if she is actually preg with Their baby

Only nice one seems the sons gay partner who is a copper as well

I'm enjoying this so far.

I really enjoyed it last night. I don’t think the body can be the mum - surely got to be more twists and turns than that
