Grace

The books are better.

Having said that, the last one I read wasn’t very good.

I have the latest Grace on order from the library, hope it’s an improvement.

Very convoluted plot. We lost interest.

A friend recently passed on to me the Grace author’s book which explained the whole story of his wife’s disappearance, and, of course the reason why she’s not revealing herself.

Does anyone know why his wife is faffing around and not revealing herself to him, or have I missed something?

She disappeared a few years ago without a word to anyone ……..

Ive read all the books and enjoyed the programme but Grace is much more handsome than John Simm. 🥴🤣

I too have read (and enjoyed) all the books - but agree that Grace (in my mind's eye) is far more handsome, rugged and appealing than John Simm (sorry John 😔). And Cleo is nothing like the actress portraying her. I do wish when books were translated into screen/film productions, that they would make sure the characters where similar to the ones the author created.

I am watching Grace on my iPad while doing my exercise bike, so probably not paying sufficient attention - but I am finding the stories v grim and rather silly.

I did watch a previous series and don’t recall it being so grim.
I see many fans of the books here - are all the novels gruesome?
No wish to offend anyone who enjoys the stories … I realise we all have different tastes.

I’ve read all the books.

No, John Simm isn’t ‘Grace’, neither is the actress playing his partner ‘Clio’.

But it’s a pleasant ‘ish’ way to spend two hours on a Sunday evening.

I forgot Sherwood was on at the same time, a much grittier watch.

Exactly how I feel Calendargirl having read all the books so far. But then I am often disappointed by TV series taken from books I have read.

I don't like the writer. Always bashed up women; people buried alive; this time a burning babydoll in a pram. Lovely Sunday Evening drama.

I love the books, but not so the tv series.

I don’t like the actor playing Grace, he doesn’t match up to my vision of him hahaha

Yes watched it. Police/forensic procedure was lacking! Entering property without foot coverings and without all concerned wearing gloves. Made an attempt at using folded over glove picking up certain stuff. It was ok but not brilliant.

I also have read the books and enjoyed Sunday night's Grace. I think there are only 3 more of this series.

I’ve read the books, but I just can’t ‘warm’ to John Simm as Grace.

I watch very few dramas, but do like Grace for the reasons Sarnia gives. I have only watched half of Sunday's so far but enjoying it.

I really enjoyed Sunday nights episode.
