The acting from the lady in Baby Reindeer is definitely good but I can’t get my head around how the guy could be so monumentally stupid, there were red flags everywhere he looked and, whilst not wishing to sound harsh, if he’s that thick to ignore all the warning signs then I don’t have much sympathy for him.

Not sure you fully understand what the series was about .

Ripley

Appreciate I'm a bit late to the party on this one.

Found the noir a bit overblown but it really hooked me.

Loved the humour - thought the Inspector was excellent.

I felt a bit awkward about how much I was rooting for Ripley as the series progressed.

I so wanted him to get away with it.

I've started using a better pen and writing more because of it. Sad I know.

That took me far too long to understand rofl

Ok I get it, I think the former is how more people would read it as opposed to the latter wink

Baby Reindeer.

Watched it all in 1 go last night.
Pretty dark and disturbing. Superb acting from the lead lady.
Finished it last night, really good as a study of abuse and the effect that it has on people. Not always an easy watch, but well worth it.

But from that image it's clear this is a whole new direction for him.

"Comes out of retirement for one last job." Ah yes, that old chestnut.

I'll give that a miss thanks.

It's actually quite decent and not a re-run of his "Taken" character.
