A few comments on this on the Prey thread.
It is excellent. A couple of the Benidorm crew showing they can do serious very well, and Sarah Lancashire showing she has come a very long way since dizzy Raquel. Best thing on the box currently. Looking forward to seeing how it all pans out. |

By:
Fully agree RtB, good cast , excellent storyline/reality , she just stands out like a beacon to me.
|
|
By:
A pleasant surprise as this was one series that was not over-hyped before it started & basically has been excellent viewing from the start.
|
|
By:
Agreed, didnt expect much, it has been a pleasant surprise.
|
|
By:
yes she has turned out to be a damn fine actress, not many make the transition after soaps
|
|
By:
Excellent drama which I started watching after maykbe Diva's recommendation
 |
|
By:
Never seen it.
How many episodes have I missed? Is it worth catching up with on I-player or whatever? Any cats in it? |
|
By:
I don't think episode one is available on iplayer anymore unfortunately. Three episodes already and no there haven't been any cats in it so far but we live in hope.
Also as someone pointed out on another thread the head of the villains Ashley is the son of Brian off New Tricks. |
|
By:
I'll have a look later and see what I can glean from episode 2.
|
|
By:
Sarah Lancashire has been excellent in this.I bet she's surprised a few with her acting ability.
Actually wondering if this has been posted in chit chat as no one has posted it's sh1t yet.Will this be a first? |
|
By:
Class again tonight,a few other threads started on it, certainly creating interest.
|
|
By:
The best thing (apart from Fargo) to be on TV for ages. Lancashire is brilliantly hard faced. My slight worry is the way Tommy cottoned on to the boy being his son. I really,really hope it doesn't end up with him kidnapping the kid.
Nah. Cant happen. |
|
By:
It's 100 times better than the fracical Fargo!
But that's just my opinion. |
|
By:
farcical*
|
|
By:
Fracical is good. Fargo is very fracical.

I used to enjoy a Brian Rix frace.

Rita & Bob too!

By:
Excellent viewing
I don't watch soaps so not knowing the characters makes it a bit more watchable , but you really get the feel for each character imo only thing i really wait to get uploaded to catch up ! Tommy cracks me up & will be interesting to see what happens to that bumbling accountant  |
|
By:
Another excellent episode. Can't wait for next weeks. Delivered on all fronts for me.
|
|
By:
I thought last nights episode was a tad disappointing, however, it has been an excellent series so i'm not going to quibble.
|
|
By:
^ agreed !
Blimey - that's a first !  |
|
By:
I clicked expecting to see about tonight's meet ?
Rail is in the A position |
|
By:
James Norton (Tommy Lee Royce) excellent again as sick villain. He must have great career ahead in these evil sort of roles, eyes could freeze water to ice.

apparently his cell mate ripped him a new one and he was hospitalised as a result, yet a couple of scenes later he was back in the shovel on visiting day arguing with his missus that minor continuity error apart, a near-perfect episode for me - racquel's acting was out of the very top drawer throughout |
|
By:
the series must be nailed on for a bafta or three imo
|
|
By:
I'm with Twizzle - last night's episode the weakest of the five so far. Still was probably pretty good, but they set the bar so high with the first four that even a decent episode would look a bit disappointing in comparison.
|
|
By:
just watched the last two episodes (sky plused been on my jollies)
gripping stuff can not wait for the final episode (6) next week PS Sarah Lancashire is top totty  |

ARE YOU A VIRGIN

Bit worried about the Finale
Nutter kidnaps son, Racquel to the rescue, nutter dies probably tops himself after crying like a baby for several minutes, hope I'm wrong but I have seen too many great series flop at the last hurdle. |
|
By:
pumpy you spoiler
|
|
By:
Surprise ending ... Racquel catches up with Tommy (the nutter) - they get together for the sake of the kid. She is now his mum and grandmother, he is now his dad and grandfather.
It's a fly on the wall thing (popular in the 1980s) about everyday northern folk. |
|
By:
Could be a pretty gruesome finale imo.
Possibilities include Ashley getting topped by drugs baron,Kevin topping himself in the nick,Tommy will obviously die somewhere in a pool of blood probably with the kid nearby. The Mr Big in the drugs cartel will no doubt be the crooked councillor who Sarah Lancashire wanted to expose and the Yard super probably crooked as well. Fantastic series. |

Excellent drama. but don't get all this over-praise for Sarah Lancashire and her downtrodden-by-numbers acting style. Granted, she's less irritating in this than all the other gritty Northern dramas she's inevitably in, but it must be a contractual obligation to have a 5 minute close-up of overacted grief and a few minutes of quickly spoken punchy-attitude delivery.
Blatant acting for awards, for me. |
