Can't wait to watch the next episodes .

Oh! I didn’t realise that there was a new series!
I watched the first one earlier this year and absolutely loved it.
Did you see Series 1 Ange?

NanaAng14 Tue 25-Oct-22 09:59:30

Yes , and didn't realise there was another series until I saw an advert on tv , maybe over the weekend .

FannyCornforth Tue 25-Oct-22 10:46:41

Thank you.
Is it as good, do you think?

Poppyred Tue 25-Oct-22 10:49:47

I enjoyed it. Did wonder how a single mother could afford to live in such a big house though….. I think she is hiding a secret!

NanaAng14 Tue 25-Oct-22 11:18:41

It was very good .That's very true about house , in the first scenes I thought ' wow' . And what hold does she have over the police ?
Not saying any more !
Don't want to spoil it for anyone .

That was exactly the same in the first series!
Everyone lived in implausibly huge and/ or beautiful houses!

I tuned in but soon gave up.........yet another drama where the viewer can hardly understand all the dialogue and scenes depicting night time that are not clearly visual. And there's nothing wrong with my eyes, ears or TV either.

This gets better…… wonder what she’s hiding…

We have been binge watching on catch up and love it,

HousePlantQueen Tue 01-Nov-22 15:34:52

I didn't realise that there had been a previous series, will look out for it on catch up, but I am really enjoying this one. Why so secretive about her ex? Why is Will so wound up and aggressive? Excellent series

FannyCornforth Tue 01-Nov-22 15:37:43

Yes, it’s got an amazing female cast HPQ, including Julie Hesmondhalgh.
Really good ending too (they are usually so disappointing aren’t they)
MrFC and I both enjoyed it, which is also rather unusual

I enjoyed both series of the Pact. Quite a surprising ending series 2.

Sparklefizz Tue 01-Nov-22 16:13:12

I thought Series 2 was better than the 1st.

I thought Series 2 was better than the 1st.

Oh good! Just started episode one now.
(Her house is ridiculous!)

BlueBelle Tue 01-Nov-22 17:17:09

Watched the first 2 episodes and likening it I can’t think what I ve seen the main character in before as I didn’t realise there was a previous series
When is Julia Hesmondhalgh in it I haven’t seen her yet
have I ?

FannyCornforth Tue 01-Nov-22 17:19:35

Hi BlueBelle, it’s a totally different story and cast

FannyCornforth Tue 01-Nov-22 17:20:15

Julie H is in the first series

MerylStreep Tue 01-Nov-22 17:25:16

I just had to watch all episodes. I’m not very patient 😟
Very good.

FannyCornforth Tue 01-Nov-22 17:31:35

Oh well done Meryl 👏
We’re usually too pissed after a couple of episodes!
(We traditionally half-watch an hour or so of absolute rubbish before we crack on to something decent.)

FannyCornforth Tue 01-Nov-22 18:03:38

Erm, did I just over share 🫣

In one of the episodes someone said her GP husband had given her the house after he left the family.

Poppyred Tue 15-Nov-22 09:52:31

Hmmm I missed something I think. Was Conner her child after all …or the fathers??

silverlining48 Tue 15-Nov-22 10:10:43

Was the first Series a down different storyline?

Delete ‘down’
