Ordinary Lies

I've seen the first 2 and have no 3 recorded! I thought Jason Manford was very good.

Excellent, and also funny.

Yes, I've watched them and I think they're very good, well acted too. Jason Manford was excellent and I'm a big fan of Max Beasley (not just for his acting!)

I'm waiting for McKenzie Crook's story. He has been seen but not heard so far....

Me too I'm really enjoying it- something different I thought.

I'm enjoying this series very much more than I thought I would. Looking forward to tonight's

Lona I loved him in that medical thing with Keith Allen which might have been called Cardiac Arrest!

I'm enjoying this too.

yes its great, but I wouldn't buy a used car at that dealership!

I've enjoyed it too, the stories are very well linked to each other too..

I wasn't too keen on the first one [I cringe inwardly watching anyone in embarrassing situations so it was uncomforatble viewing] but hadn't realised that the stories were interrelated. I, too, am a great fan of Mackenzie Crooke [The Detectorists was a little gem] so will watch it just to see him.

Didn't see that kitty! What have I missed?

It was years ago Lona, I expect you were too young!

We saw MacKenzie Crooke in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest at the Edinburgh Fringe - he was brilliant!! He was really good in The Cafe too. We didn't watch the Detectorists but DS1 bought us the DVDs for Christmas so we really ought to find time to watch them!

I too am really enjoying this. It is like 'Clocking off' a few years ago when all the characters and stories were separate but connected. It is a well written example of how things aren't always as they seem, how there is always two sides to every story. Well acted too by a good cast of character actors.

Thanks kitty but I'll be 70 next year!!

Must find this on catch up.

Just gets better and better.

It does! Another excellent episode with excellent acting.

It's a good series and I like the fact it concentrates on the characters one at a time.

She was a saucy minx wasn't she! Watch the quiet ones as they say.

Having said that I would like to know if the girl is still in prison for drug smuggling or have I missed that story line conclusion, I can drift a bit.

Really enjoyed this series and hoping that there will be more. There are lots of loose ends to tie up so I think it is likely.

POGS, I think someone mentioned in passing that she was being sent back to England to serve out her prison sentence. The 'friend' who got her into this trouble said she wanted to visit her.

Did the "friend" - Michelle Keegan - get her into trouble? I missed the start of that episode. I thought they both decided to get involved in the drug smuggling thing and the girl who was picked up had, unknown to the girls, already been set up as the "decoy" to draw attention away from the several other girls carrying drugs?

I watched the last one of these last night and some things that were in the trailer don't appear to have been in any episodes - or did I sleep through some of it?

Max Beesley said in a trailer, I think, that his wife's clothes were at the charity shop - did he say that in one of the programmes? There were other things that were 'missing' too1
