Got off to a slow start last night, I spent most of the time trying to remember the plots from last series! Still really good, with this and 'The Missing' I now have my weekly fix of good drama.

Really enjoyed the first series but struggled with that last night.

Busted flush I think - greedy writer who had a great idea for the project, when asked if he could get another series kerching - but seems reheated bits from before with no real logical path.

Just came across this drama on iPlayer, watched all of the first series, and the first episode of the second series. Very tense and enjoyable. I thought he would get caught in the last episode of the first series.

The ending ydai, when he was in bed next to her, was very tense.

I'm hoping they're going to manage to bring the Irish gangster side of the plot together convincingly with Mr Sneaky however I'm struggling to see how they're going to do it...

It's really not as good as series 1.

There are a lot of long, lingering gazes in series 2.

Essential viewing, but it is in danger of dragging out a little to long, maybe one or two more episodes would be OK.

That guy really freaks me out though, scary to think people like him exist in real life.

Last night's episode had me somewhat baffled...

I'd have thought the police could track the mobile phone (provided it was on), rather than wait for Spector to call

Nothing to indicate that he hadn't turned it off.

Does anyone know the timeline for this? Is it just a few months on from series 1?

I ask if only to anticipate her boss tooling around in a Bentley limo before the conclusion, given that his car budget has apparently gone from a decade old Omega to Jag lwb in the blink of an eye...

Last nights bondage scene was an eye opener. But that was all.

Compared with many things on TV & film, it isn't, and is often more creepy as a result.

She's had her accommodation budget upped. She's moved from the Hilton @ £100 a night to the merchant hotel @ £300 a night.

I think the writer's been paying too much attention to feminist whinging. Paul's had a couple of opportunities to get back to his ............ obsession. - and not taken them!
Who's first?
The "blonde" on the train? He caught her address from her driving licence.
The babysitter? She's pushing him too far.
His ex? She should have been offed right away - too much sentiment Paul!
The creepy guy in the hotel? He knows the babysitter went up to Paul's room.

There's a couple of annoying script let-downs. He should have got rid of his ex's phone right away. He shouldn't be driving around in her car. He shouldn't be phoning Stella - although I would hehe

First time watching this so picking it up. First impressions, Scully looks like a fox and impressive accent. Eric Cantona, less so.

How did he get out of the hotel room?
