Us - New Sunday night BBC 1 drama.

Husband is an idiot, wife needs to get a grip. Son I feel sorry for with such idiot parents.

I’ve just rewatched it properly. A lot of it was daft and didn’t make sense but a lot of it was exactly what happened when my marriage fell apart. It’s actually left me feeling a bit numb and incredibly sad. We even did a grand tour with the kids just before my daughter went to uni. As I said to everyone when we eventually split up ‘they all just grew up and left home including my husband’.

One of the best bbc series for some time loved it

It was very poor casting to have a 59 year old actress, who looks more like 69, play the part of the mother of a 17 year old born when she was supposed to be in her twenties.

I suppose that they couldn't cast someone who looked a lot younger than Tom Hollander and he had to be in it as he was involved in the making of it.

Tom Hollander looks relatively ageless - you could take him for 45 They should have cast an actress who was, or at least looked to be in her early to mid forties.

ihadn't realised she was that old. I know she looked years older than DD who has a 14 year old son. I was glad that he ended up with his nice lady from Venice, she seemed to suit him much better.

I thought the ending was a bit far fetched-how could they both move before the house was sold?. But it was OK. I was glad he got the woman from Venice as well.

But what happened to the dog?

Best bits were seeing those beautiful foreign cities.
Did think his "heart trouble" following the jellyfish stings was not written by anyone with cardiac experience.
And written by a man, as another woman falls into his arms immediately.

I liked the book better.

MayBee70 I did wonder about that as well.

Not sure why they split up really!!!

It's not often I put my knitting / puzzle book / iPad down and just watch tv. I did for Us. I think that must mean I enjoyed it. I wondered what she did when she got her freedom.
