Love Rat.

Unfortunately we don’t have enough tech savvy police to Pursue these crimes.

Also, I thought they said last night that the Police were corrupt as well, and ‘in on it’ all, the Mafia type dealings that Nico is involved with.

l think the suggestion of police corruption was to entice us to keep watching We are in fits watching it!

This is even worse than Madame Blanc but with all the same components.. inept police service, unbelievable characters, nice locations, awful balloon type dresses, old fashioned hair styles and one very unfit woman who is going to solve the mystery despite all odds.. In fact it is so badly scripted that it becomes almost compelling to see if it can posssibly get any worse

I was telling my sister about it on the phone this morning. She had planned to binge watch it.

Without wanting to ‘spoil’ her future watch, I gave her a brief rundown of the comedy so far.

She was in fits of laughter, as was I, describing our heroine, gamely hobbling away in the dark to escape the gun toting estate agent, whose aim must have been so bad he couldn’t hit the proverbial barn door.

I must say I do enjoy the Madame Blanc series and take it with a pinch of salt. Love Rat, however, is a load of rubbish.

I think we should take it and enjoy it for what it is, a bit of escapism in a lovely setting. Much better than the awful stuff put out by the BBC/ITV with gruesome serial killers, dark filters and horrible nasty characters. I can't tell you how many I've turned off halfway into the first episode as they are so depressing.

I thought the Madame Blanc series had some charm which is more than can be said for Love Rat.

Where’s Dom when you need him?

What a load of sh..e

I'm an 18/20 and love Sally Lindsay's floaty clothes.

Those previews at the end of each episode give far too much away!
Most unbelievable moment ( out of many!) for me was her going to meet someone late at night in a wood on her own!

Well despite me saying to enjoy the escapism I'm finding this is getting harder. Boy that episode was bad with so many holes in the plot that I lost count! The standout one for me is how her poorly foot suddenly recovered and she was walking with no limp. But don't get me started on holes in the plot or we'll be here all night.

Don't forget she promised her daughter she'd get the money back by Friday, without any help from the Police!

So in the real world do the Police take that attitude, that a con is not worth investigating because the money was handed over willingly, does anyone know?

The police take romance fraud very seriously.

At one stage last night I thought, “Goodness, she’s going to end up with Nico!”

Then ‘bang’!

So probably not.

Poor Neil Morrissey. Just hop on that plane, alone, and don’t look back.

(I too kept noticing the on/off limp).

It is pretty bad but I have watched as we go to that area of Cyprus to catch the winter sun. Have yet to spot anywhere familiar.

The actings dire but it’s the awful badly written story that does it for me whoever the author is I swear a school kid could do better it’s so childish and unicorn stuff
Yes women do get trumped out of money through falling for smoothies but they don’t then become limping sleuths trotting all over the country, getting into conveniently open houses, with conveniently placed computers and then just ‘finding’ keys to locked drawers not to mention the ability to search through a dead womans suitcase It’s so badly thought out and so childlike and so poorly written
I havens a clue why I m watching except I probably need to see just how bad it is
Last one tonight thank heavens

To be honest I don’t rate Neil Morrissey’s acting either. I do have a teeny bit of a soft spot for him because in his younger days he was very handsome and he was a better actor.

He had many years away from our screens and then he popped up in that drama where he was a newsagent who held on to a winning lottery ticket. He was recently in Finders Keepers about two men finding treasures that they don’t declare. In both of these he was extremely wooden and says his lines like he is reading them.

Remember seeing Neil Morrissey being interviewed by Piers Morgan, who brought up his ‘fling’ with Amanda Holden when she was married to Les Dennis.

Apparently Amanda had said what a great kisser he was!

Neil tried to look bashful and modest about this, and Piers looked green with envy.

Yes, his acting might not be great, but get him in a kissing clinch….

As well as believing he was safe enough to allow him to get into her car and go to the airport.

It has more holes in it than a colander.

At one point I thought Pete might be gaslighting her and there will be a twist at the end.

Too deep? 😂

Obviously it hasn’t improved then. I look forward to the final thoughts of posters after the last one.

Oh, I hope not.

Yes. 😁

It is so sad to think that this has happened to people (men and women) and will go on to happen. Personally I would rather have a house full of cats!!! Not going to watch it.

Yes, you do wonder how anyone can be so daft but it does happen.

It's how she goes about trying to get her money back and upbringing the gang to justice which is even dafter.

There must have been far more than her and the Danish woman who were scammed; About £200,000 average per victim isn't going to last long between them.
