Missing

Anyone watch it last night?

Seemed a slow burner but with some potential.

Very Madeleine McCann I thought.

On for 8 weeks though which takes us right up to Christmas!

He did, but why was he over in France with his own son, and just happen to bump into them, and recognise them in the street, rather weird?

Yes it was a bit of a strange coincidence. I am expecting to discover he is single, hence having to bring his kid out to France while working, and has been fully briefed with photos etc.

But perhaps not...

I think he said that he was holidaying nearby and he'd been nominated as the UK police force liaison due to this reason or something along those lines.

I think the book is already available....

It's the mayor.

Range rover was in the car park when the kid went missing.

I agree - it's good to see it spread over more episodes than normal.

In places it has seemed a little slow, or what could be called "brooding"

[Dan_1981]

Agreed.

I enjoyed it very much. Far better than some recent shonky BBC dramas with appalling endings.

I think the ending reflected the doubt that the main characters, especially Tony would have had.

The Romanian guy killed Ollie, hence the extra blood on the floor, George saw the body.

The statement from Julien about Tony needing to move on otherwise it would consume his life summed this all up for me.

The sketch of the little boy in the ice was obviously done by Tony.


All in all I really enojyed it, the pace, the acting, and the ending.

Additions of side worries like Ian and Vincent Borg were very good. But ultimately had no bearing on the actual cause.

[Dan_1981]

He was trying to get out, that's why he was at the window in the house!

[Dan_1981]

Yeah I wondered if we'd done the old switcherooo

[Dan_1981]

Bloody Hell.

That drill was a bit nasty.

[Dan_1981]

I'm assuming Gettrick blackmailed them all once they were back in the UK.

Stone shot a man in cold blood & torched a house that killed the daughter, the other guy was complicit in it all.

They both appeared to have decent military careers too that they wouldn't want to lose.

[Dan_1981]

The cabin is his, left to him by his uncle, he used to go there as a child.

[Dan_1981]

Satisfactory ending.

[Dan_1981]

Aren't red herrings, false starts, additional characters and a little story telling the point of dramas like this?

They'd be a bit pointless being an hour long and only having one bloke in a prison cell being charged.
