KILLING EVE

Anyone watching Killing Eve? Think it's brilliant, all actors are very good and story is very gripping. Jodie Comer is very glamorous but obviously psychotic in her quest to kill everyone in her way. It's up there I think with The Bodyguard. Just want to watch the whole series.

I finally got round to watching this last night and watched the first two episodes. I didn’t expect to enjoy it so much, it made me laugh out loud in places. Jodie Comer is wonderful and Villanelle is a brilliant creation.

I spent some of the last series peeking between my fingers! I really enjoyed it and also hope that the new series will be as good.

I am really looking forward to this, but I understand there is a new writer for this series, so just hope it will be as good.

It's back on 8th June... Saturday night viewing or all the episodes will be on iPlayer .... that's my Sunday sorted!

Just don't watch gogglebox. I asked DD if she was watching it and she said gogglebox had ruined it for her. However, imo, even if you know what happens the dialogue and acting is so good you'd still enjoy it. I don't watch gogglebox at all these days especially as I haven't seen the new series of Game of Thrones [there are spoilers everywhere].

Judging by the amount of Awards it won yesterday I need to watch this. I believe there is going to be a second series.

Thanks Dora having binge watched series 1 I thought I could go on to series 2 so was quite disappointed; didn't realise it had to be shown in America first. I understand that the girl who plays Villanette is going to be on the Graham Norton show at some point. Mind you, I need to catch up with all the things I should have been doing whilst glued to the telly. Similar thing happened with 'Stranger Things'. Having watched a couple of episodes at a friends house, I thought I could buy a dvd of the series, but it isn't available...

I loved the first and am looking forward to new series, hope I'm not disappointed. Great actresses, and irony galore. Very clever.

New series starts in June.

one not on!!!

travelsafar Sat 11-May-19 08:11:38

I am sure i saw somewhere there is a follow on to this series. Loved the first on.

Caught a snippet of it a while back and it didn't impress me but, after meeting up with various friends and family over the weekend and realising that they were all raving about it I gave it another go and am now binge watching it. Loving it albeit being slightly traumatised after seeing episode 3 series 1 [although, as a GOT's fan I should be used to losing characters I love...

I couldn't post previously as I had watched the full series on iPlayer and thought it would be unfair to comment.

I thought it was a really good series, quirky and the relationship between Eve and Villanelle was brilliant. Hence I watched program 1 and got hooked enough to binge watch the lot.

Looking forward to Series 2 and it will be a definate watch for me.

I wondered about Constantine and her son (she didn't tell him that did she?) Thought the three women were great. And the transformation of Fiona Shaw from horsey Englishwoman to mysterious international spy-vamp when she got to Russia was fantastic. Bit far fetched sometimes but you went with it. And I agree about the daughter.

merlotgran Sun 04-Nov-18 13:41:50

Having watched the last episode I realise I'm mistaken and what I thought was a thriller is actually a comedy programme.

Full marks to the girl playing Konstantin's daughter though grin

I loved the two female leads, and loved looking at Villanelle's outfits. The gory bits watched through my fingers. Nice having bit of comedy, albeit rather dark - I remember the hot fruitcake! so funny Have finished it now and missing it! Looking forward to series 2.

KatyK Thu 11-Oct-18 09:42:37

Jodie Comer's acting is fantastic. I don't want to watch as it's so violent, but it's compulsive,

123coco Wed 10-Oct-18 10:29:39

Absolutely fantastic. Jodie Comer always is. Quality telly for a change. smile

baubles Sat 06-Oct-18 09:15:50

I’m normally not interested in watching anything gory but I somehow got drawn into this. Some of the throwaway lines were so funny! I did feel that it got a bit too silly and I reckon they’ve jumped the shark with the ending which is obviously leading into a second series.

PECS Sat 06-Oct-18 09:03:36

I am watching and sort of enjoying it! I think some of the dialogue is great and though the plot feels somewhat unbelievable..who knows..I am not involved inbthe world of espionage! grin

Bathsheba Fri 05-Oct-18 19:52:57

Sorry, not for me. I watched till halfway through episode 2, but really couldn't be doing with the sick and twisted mind of the killer. Far too dark and gruesome.

NanKate Thu 04-Oct-18 07:57:28

Yes I liked Constantine too NotaNan. I suspect Villanelle is still alive too.

notanan2 Wed 03-Oct-18 23:52:39

Nearly didnt watch it, thought it looked rubbish. Loved it.

Heard bad reviews of the ending online but I thought the finale scene was perfect!

Konstantine is so sexy....missed him since The Bridge. He probably isn't dead (hopeful!) - that was probably a lie. Is he the young hacker's dad?

NanKate Wed 03-Oct-18 21:51:47

Just watched the last episode and was disappointed with it. The previous 7 episodes had been exciting but very gruesome at times.

NanKate Tue 02-Oct-18 06:38:12

I felt the same Lemongrove but restarted the series after all the good reviews. The acting is excellent but there is no denying some of the scenes I can’t watch. In days gone by this would definitely have been given an X Rating.
