One Of Us (BBC this week)

Jalima you are so right it was so OTT in all the catratophies that it was unbelievable I also couldn't see the point of the ill daughter what was that all about Glad it's over hope something better comes along or its back to psychic detectives

should have said?

sorry, just have said SPOILER ALERT!!

don't read my post

Gonna watch last night's episode tonight, but don't expect too much of it.

oh - blackmail!

She had a brain tumour apparently trisher and they were going to Mumbai for her to have an operation.

Someone must have sat and thought about all the bad things that can possibly happen and threw them all into this one series.
Rape, stalking, murder(s), child destruction, car theft, covering up crimes, alcoholism, drug dealing, corrupt police officer, hacking, suicide(s), serious illness (NHS refusing to operate), potential euthanasia, wrongful arrest, adultery, incest !!!

Have I missed anything?

Oh it was such rubbish. Why did that girl need an operation and where were she and her mum going if she was so ill? Did Grace's mum really never suspect that her husband might not be the dad? Fully understand why Ade Edmondson did what he did-quickest way out!!

The drugs story did appear to be"padding"
I'd worked out the couple were brother and sister.
Yes, I agree they should have made it clear that Bill finished off the guy he hired.

We.gave up.after the first episode, looks like.we.made the right decision.

Well, that was clear as mud.

I presume Bill killed the guy?

To many loose ends for me. What was the point of the drugs story? Why did the children not know about their parentage? And why did the tube in tumour girl's nose appear to go nowhere?

Grannyknot maybe I should change my name!! It's all a bit rubbishy. You could play "Who will be the next body?" but that might be taking it too seriously.

Turned on last night to see Ade Edmunson walk under a lorry, made my blood boil as SIL is a lorry driver and they all dread that scenario.
Turned straight back off.

Yes. "surreal" is the right word about the side stories. They seem superfluous. Unless I've missed something.

I was looking forward to this and wanted to enjoy it but I m not sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for Tuesday to come round and was wondering why but thinking about it I dont really have any belief in any of the characters None of them have made me warm to them not even nice nurse and neither have they reviled me even the nasty druggie and the police woman with the ill daughter all seemed a bit surreal So no I wouldnt put off a long soak in the bath to watch it although I ll see it through now but a bit of a disappointment

It all got on my nerves to such an extent last night I went off to read a book. What an odious shower they are. Lock 'em all up and have done with it!

Well, it is all a bit messy, isn't it. Dark filmy, misty scenes, mumbled talk, there must be a decent end, surely.

- autoKindle calls you Trouser!

4! Thanks, trouser.

I don't think the person who confessed actually did it. I think he/she is trying to protect someone. Not sure they did it either.

I've been watching the first two episodes back to back this evening. Yes. Rubbish. Haven't a clue what the side stories are all about. Mind you, I have been doing a quick bit of GNing now and then.

Might as well watch the last one also on catch up, tomorrow.

Oh I don't care who killed the young couple. In fact their deaths seem to be of complete insignificance. No-one seems to be very concerned and all the usual details that have to be attended to after a death simply aren't happening. Their families are far too busy burying cars (apart from Juliet Stephenson who is frantically cleaning all night, to little effect)
Grannyknot Bodycount is 4 (I think)

What on earth made Juliet Stephenson think it was a good idea to do this (she can't be short of money, surely?)

I was waiting for Vyvyan Ade Edmonson to bring a bit of light-hearted fun to the proceedings but alas, not so far.

It is rubbish isn't it. And a set of characters you really don't care about. I suppose the nurse is supposed to be the nice one but honestly they could all go and wouldn't be missed. A nice farmhouse fire perhaps...

I usually love a good British drama so I was looking forward to this one . What a let down ! more like an Agatha Christy who done it but in this case I don`t really care . Will not watch any more episodes . Yes very `hammy` Eloethan .

I'm wondering if any of them killed the supposed murderer. Maybe it was someone else.

I suppose I'll watch it to see what happens but I find some of the acting a bit "hammy".
