Bumpity-bump.
Off we go ......

[Deleted User] · 04/03/13 - 02:01

Looks good.

[Deleted User] · 04/03/13 - 02:01

Having seen a bit, it seems to be a mix between the wicker man and the killing. Looks good.

Existentialist · 04/03/13 - 02:05

Looks dreadful so far.

The bicycle found with the wheel still going round reminds me of the true disappearance of Jeanette Tate in the late 70s

grahamzxy · 04/03/13 - 02:08

This has potential, but how many viewers will stick with all 5 episodes......

rockjack · 04/03/13 - 02:11

ooh its the queer as folk dude

[Deleted User] · 04/03/13 - 02:11

Stuart got old

prehensile · 04/03/13 - 02:17

Hmm, Psychoville meets Midsomer Murders.

Not looking terribly convincing so far.

heart of glass · 04/03/13 - 02:18

So she babysits for them and the husband is acting very strangely. Hmm...

Very much depends on how much it draws you in.
20 minutes so far and I'm so-so but giving it a chance.

allie4 · 04/03/13 - 02:20

Looking good so far - except so many characters are being introduced, I'm getting muddled!

Haha yep. A five hour whodunnit written by EastEnders scriptwriters by the looks of it.

heart of glass · 04/03/13 - 02:22

Blood splatters? :eek: Seems a bit too obvious.

same here. I hate this way all drama thrillers throw so many characters in. And all shrouded in mystery. If it's done well, it draws you in, not confuse the hell out of you. A lot of recent ITV dramas have been a bit like this. Not impressed so far

rockjack · 04/03/13 - 02:22

is this like a group killing or something..

Espresso · 04/03/13 - 02:23

Those are rather ridiculous boots for a walk in the woods, Mrs

heart of glass · 04/03/13 - 02:24

What the eff is that? Creepy.

[Deleted User] · 04/03/13 - 02:25

It's very much a case of, who didn't do it.

prehensile · 04/03/13 - 02:26

'Mustapha Kebabs' - it is Royston Vasey!

I want to yell "keep it simple"!!! But it's quite gripping so far.
Many many suspects!:D

[Deleted User] · 04/03/13 - 02:28

Some of the acting is a bit "hammy" and OTT.

They're a very emotionally charged group of people!

Lynch mob mentality going on.
