Missed Call - anyone watching?

Thank you, I'll give it a go, gripping sounds good. I like Joanna Scanlon and Robert Lindsay, although I haven't seen him in anything for a while.

Is this a series of individual stories or a continuation of one plot ?

Recorded it last night - I like gripping so sounds promising! Thanks for the heads up Clawdy.

Obviously made some time ago as the chance to nip across to France with no problems at customs would cause more problems. I thought it was quite a good start but rather too obvious signposts with various parts. Will probably watch the next bit. Think Joanne usually plays good parts.

It's a continuation of one plot. I watched it last night and think it started well. Will see what tonight brings.

It was definitly a good start I enjoyed it last night and look forward to it tonight

I doubt if only one teacher, male at that, would be allowed to go with a mixed group.
I would think that the first port of call would be to the designated school contact that is required for such trips.
All a bit to unrealistic, but makes for a gripping drama.

Too*

There isn't a single TV drama without holes in the plot. I just think we've got really good at spotting them due to age and experience. I remember watching things in years gone by and accepting the storylines without question! Now I find myself asking 'why did she do that when she could have done this?' or spotting impossibilities all over the place. I try really hard not to do this though.

Have only watched first episode.

Both the boyfriend and the teacher seem dodgy, plus the host family.

Enough to put you off sending your children on educational visits abroad!

Thought Joanna Scanlan looked a bit old to be the daughter’s mum. No mention of her dad, or did I miss that?

Just what I was thinking.

I’m enjoying it, a third of the way through the third episode!

Binged watched all 6 episodes today
Really enjoyed

I haven't watched yet, but I'm going to. However, someone mentioned 'Robert Lindsay'..Oh no, don't like him. He was great in the 'Citizen Smith' Years but quickly became a 'Luvvie' and a 'Do you know who I am' person. Hope he doesn't have too big a part ?

Only watched first episode so far . I love anything showing the French countryside as we're too old to travel now . (Sigh ! )

He’s great in the part and it’s not a major part, but still big enough

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Indeed!

I've really enjoyed the first two episodes, and will watch the rest in the evenings. (I'm watching Emmerdale and Corrie on ITV X in the mornings now, and feel like my evenings are totally freed up! ) I agree that there are some pretty obvious holes but I just go with the flow and enjoy the story.

very slow, if it was my daughter i would be taking the couple and daughter by the throat and shaking them until they told me , not wandering around town. i also think the teacher and her mothers boyfriend are it together, the boyfriend finds a woman with a teenage daughter, then passes details on to teacher as they are trafficking these girls

Have see the first 2 episodes and am enjoying it so far, lots of little side 'plots' seem to be emerging. Joanna Scanlon usually in pretty decent things.

Have watched it all and, although it started very promisingly, I think it just got silly towards the end.

Just finished it. Really enjoyed it if you simply put some of the implausible things to the back of your mind!

Good acting, couple of good twists.

Just about to start “text me when you get home” But I think it’s a real life thingie rather than a drama?

Did you notice she wore that green top for about 3 days?

Must applaud Joanna Scanlon, such a believable actress. Have watched many drama’s in which she had a leading role and thoroughly enjoyed them.
Fantastic to see a beautiful, standout leading lady whose natural beauty and talent is clear to see.
Missed call illustrated the strong bond between mother and daughter, whilst highlighting the things our children don’t share. We need more drama like this with intrigue.
