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 …………..

I think they can tell that as there was a real life case where someone was frozen for a while then dumped and they knew

Did Kaden steal the money for the surrogate then let his colleague take the blame?

Yes

Yeah that's why he was so relieved when Dan said there is no cameras at those ATMs.

Why does Joan want to return to the house with so many bad memories? Where did she get money to be a cash buyer for a property that expensive? What will Sally do about Patrick?

And would a mum really just abandoned her kids and be 2hrs away but then return

Well I think there's a lot in it that's not realistic 😆

I find it hard to believe that she would only be two hours drive away and nobody saw her around and she didn’t contact her children for years either.
She was scared of Robert I guess.

Maybe Joan is aware of the body in the freezer and wanted to buy it to keep that secret safe ? She may have murdered them? it’s handy that Kaden wants to sell up just as she makes an appearance.
Poor Carol though .
I don’t normally like Denise Walsh in things, but she plays her part well and it is intriguing and a bit different from the usual ch 5 dramas.

Well it is ch 5😂

tho based on a book

I really enjoyed it. Finished it yesterday. Yes silly and unrealistic in places but watchable and touching. Douglas Henshaw is good in whatever he's in.

E5 tonight

Tonight’s was a bit more interesting

tho how quick does a house sell. Surely shouldn’t be chucked out the next day

I felt for Sally with the husband denying jt but showing the video was mean and felt for Anna

why have they arrested Moria

sounds like at the care home that was the ex wife who killed the brother /uncle

is she 28w preg as baby is early maybe due to stress but also sounds like she was going to do a runner down south with money and baby

prob isn’t even their baby with their mixed sperm

So last one tonight

did her mum kill Neil

That's what Dan seems to believe based on something he found but we were not told.

As all others are so unlikeable and Dan is the only decent human being, I think the plot twist is he will sell the baby for its organs...

Loved this. Kept me guessing right to the last. It’s made me want to read Graham Norton books!

I'm 5 minutes into yesterday's episode and I don't understand how she's bought the house so quickly without anyone knowing. It takes weeks to buy a house

Same

and she wanted Carol out the next day

My thoughts as well. Lots of silliness but I’m ready.

I don’t think her mum killed Jim

Him

I’m guessing first wife used lover carols scarf

Bloody hell. Just realised her dad is Kevin Whately

Or kayden did it. He was 10

I was right

tho poor Sally

wonder if she’s blanked it out
