Keeping Faith

I see Keeping Faith is being repeated this coming Thursday at 9.00pm on BBC1. I am going to watch it for a second time as it was so good.

Keep not Jeep ?

I will PM you SallyAnn1 as I want to jeep my anonymity.

Nankate - who is your DS ?

Brilliant brilliant series thoroughly enjoyed it. Need more like this.

How interesting SallyAnn1 I am glad she seemed as nice a person as when I heard her on Woman’s Hour. When I see they are repeating the programme I will alert everyone on this thread.

My DS appeared at Hay on Tuesday, but that isn’t relevant to anything ?

Just been to Hay Festival and saw Eve Myles and (the writer) Matthew Hall talking about Keeping Faith. Eve Myles came over as a really lovely person - and very hardworking (learning Welsh and recording one series in Welsh).

I hear they are repeating the series on BBC4 as it was so popular.

No I didn't find the episodes were slow and in fact I am revving up to watch it again as I missed some of the twists and turns.

Doesn’t anyone else think the episodes moved along at a very slow pace? I think Eve Myles is amazing, we’ve watched her in a few things, Belonging being one also Torchwood. She’s actually married in ‘real life’ to Evan.

No doubt the constant use of mobile phones was necessary to keep everything moving along at a cracking pace but it got on my nerves when there was hardly a scene where one didn't ring and interrupt the dialogue.

I thought Baldini did some shady work for them collecting the drug drop - he sort of got himself tied in to working for them again.

I'm trying very hard to watch it all! I watched 1 and 2 last night and 3 this morning but I might not reach the end before Monday - busy weekend! I realise from up the thread that the husband comes back but I think someone might have to tell me what happens as I couldn't bear not to know the ending if I've not got there, if that makes sense! Please will someone tell me why and where etc and I won't read it before I've got as far as I can and its disappeared! Oh, why didn't I find it earlier?

Help! Did I miss something? Where did Mr Baldini get the money to pay off the Glynns?

Just finished watching.
Also binged watched every episode.
Dh came down at about 2am he thought I had fallen asleep on the couch!
Yikes time for bed
Looking forward to next series.

It's been extended on iPlayer until Monday, I see.

Luckylegs I think you will have to binge watch the series TODAY. ?I don’t think the BBC let you download it unfortunately.

Exactly how I saw her too Annie . Brilliantly acted.

I didn't see Faith as a woman who bulldozed her way through people's lives . She is a woman whose secure world collapsed in a very short time

I'm never going to be able to watch it now before it disappears from iPlayer tonight! Is there anything I can do to 'bank' it?

Steve Baldini definitely doesn’t snore Marelli

Yes I agree with you there NanKate He’s bloomin’ lush.

Faith reminded me of a character in a drama about a district nurse a few years ago (I think she was called Frankie.) Ego driven and a right pain in the a**e as she bulldozed her way through people's lives. I didn't like that character and I didn't like Faith either.

Great ending though and I will definitely watch the next series.

Terri, in Wales we have rather a lot of Evan’s ?

Yes Evan, heaven knows how I forgot that, Faith spent enough time leaving messages on his mobile along the lines of "Evan when you get this....." followed by a few expletives

Evan will have a lot of explaining to do ?

NanKate, I Googled Eve Myles, her absconding tv husband in the series, is her real life husband, hopefully minus the wig They have two children, so yes she is a mum in the real world, she certainly played the part very well. Looking forward to the second series, Mr Faith, can't remember the surname, will have some explaining to do!
