Just watching this.

Another psychological thriller.

Joanne Froggatt playing another abused wife.

Where does she work? I thought she was a veterinary assistant, then I wondered if it was a prison, or a dog rescue centre. Still not sure.

6 episodes, no idea where it’s going.

She olunteers at a dog shelter.

I can't understand why she kept taking that dog off his dog lead and removing his muzzle. Did I miss something?
I quite like it though and will keep watching.

Perhaps she is going to set the dog on him?
Perfect murder.

That could be it! MissAdventure. Let's hope so! smile

Isn't the poor dog dead?

Oh yes! That scene where he was on the floor with two vets/nurses with him. I forgot that.

MissAdventure Mon 11-Oct-21 11:24:29

I don't know.
I didn't even watch it. grin

grin MissAdventure !!!

Maybe her husband is actually having an affair with the 'private detective' and him wanting to seemingly help her is just part of the plot........just saying ?‍♀️

Oh I missed that bit! What about the scene at the end, where the car drives off, in the dark, and the camera zooms to a very dead, mangled dog in the road? What was all that about?

I really hope that the PI isn't all in her head, or something daft like that, that suggests that women who report domestic abuse might be making it up.

So good I said it twice?

Is anyone else getting glitches when posting?

BlueBelle Mon 11-Oct-21 15:37:26

Yes DoodlebugI tried sending a pm earlier and had to copy and paste it later as it was just stuck for ages and then an error message appeared
I was unsure what dog that was in the driveway. I guess it will become clear as time goes by

Curlywhirly Mon 11-Oct-21 16:24:17

The dogs (the muzzled one and the mangled dead one at the roadside) must be significant, but goodness knows how they will fit in with the story. Maybe she steals some of the medication (that puts dogs to sleep) and kills her vile husband, because in addition to hitting her, he ran over her very much loved pet dog?!!

JaneJudge Mon 11-Oct-21 16:30:54

wasn't she in coronation street as an abused woman too, years ago?

Another one where they live in a posh house, but apparently don’t have a dishwasher, as she was busily washing up after their dinner party.

Haha *calendergirl that was the first thing I noticed!

Callistemon Mon 11-Oct-21 17:16:51

She had a nice husband in Downton Abbey.
?

Namsnanny Mon 11-Oct-21 17:17:42

She was in corrie JaneJudge but I've forgotten the story line. In fact I thought she might have been another of Steve McDonalds girls!

Namsnanny Mon 11-Oct-21 17:18:42

Yes and Downton Callistemon

ninathenana Mon 11-Oct-21 17:56:18

I thought the body in the gutter was a fox

BlueBelle Mon 11-Oct-21 17:57:25

Gosh I can’t remember her in Corrie ?

Calendargirl Mon 11-Oct-21 18:06:19

In Corrie, she was a very young, pregnant homeless girl, think she was called Zoe? Did Ashley, Fred Elliot’s nephew/son try and help her?

Then I think the baby was going to be adopted by Judy and Gary, can’t remember their surname, but did Zoe change her mind?

Apologies for this garbled version, I haven’t looked it up!

Doodledog Mon 11-Oct-21 18:09:24

Yes, that's right. It's recently been on the Classic Corrie re-runs.

Kittye Mon 11-Oct-21 18:35:55

ninathenana I thought it was a mangled fox too!

Bridie22 Mon 11-Oct-21 18:44:24

I thought it was a big rat !
