The Ex-Wife on channel 5

Yes, I watched Ep 1 - as you say, not very likeable people! Rather ridiculously large and rich house!

I watched, not impressed - will not watch Ep 2 .

Pretty sure I have read the book

Based on the book by Jess Ryder

I’m recording it

I was reading the book when I chose my username.

I read the book (can’t remember it, though) and we’ve recorded the programme.

Over-acted rubbish. The story is over the top and none of them can act

Very cliched, poor script with awful 'rom com' type music playing away in the background. I imagine this is supposed to work on your subconscious and create some mood or other. Unpleasant house with lots of glass. However, the ending of the first episode makes we want to know what happens next!

Is it my imagination but I’m sure I’ve seen this before on BBC one? It was when I saw the first few scenes when he knocked her off a bicycle
Does anyone else think that?

I’ve watched the first part and am recording the rest now hoping to get my head round the plot which seems very far fetched just my opinion of course.

We saw the first episode last night and won’t be watching any more. Apart from the unlikeable characters, the mumbling, the ridiculous house, I found the ‘background music’ intolerably loud.

Yes sunfield - I’m sure I’ve seen it before

I saw episode one and was not overly impressed. But I might watch episode two to see if it improves.

Ended now! Some very improbable twists, but it did keep me watching.

The twitching fingers at the end would seem to indicate the likelihood of a second series?

Far fetched over acted rubbish. As an unpublished writer it annoys me to see trash like that when I cannot get my plays broadcast.

I hope not.. but suspect you're right
