Unforgotten 5 - ITV1

[Grumps.]

Not sure if its run it’s course, especially now Nicola Walker is no longer starring but who knows!?

Starts Monday 27th.

Excellent, thanks for the reminder! Hope it's still good. One of the best things on ITV in my opinion.

Bumping the thread in advance of tonight's episode.

Can also be binged on itvx for those inclined (I am one of those)

My feelings too. Normally I would go straight to the next episode but decided to watch Drive to Survive instead. Maybe give the 2nd episode a go tonight.

For some reason, we got into watching ‘Desperate Measures’ on Channel 5 catch up so missed the first episode.

Still got the last one to watch, but that isn’t all that good either.

I'm on episode three, it is a bit slower and less gripping than previous ones. Probably because they spent the first episode faffing around introducing the new boss. The multiple comments on the Conservatives are getting rather tiring, I watch things like this to relax, not have party political points rammed into me.

I've watched it to the end and felt exactly the same. Far too much politics, all from the same slant. Not even any subtlety about it.

Only seen one episode so far and normally would have been binging. The interview pre screening with Sinead Keenan where she said her character was really unlikeable wasn't wrong.

I'm now 4 episodes in and it's definitely getting better.

Derek Griffiths! Glad to see him still around.

Finished the series last night. Wow!. More twists than a corkscrew. And some great acting. Really enjoyed it.
Hope there is a series 6.

On episode 5 and I have to say Keenan is better than Walker.

Yes, she's a bit of a bh but isn't that understandable in the circumstances. Loved the friction between her and Sunny Calm it just all seems more grounded.

I finished it last night and agree with your comment.

[PositronicRay]

I'm enjoying it.

[Pinkie15]

We're 2.5 episodes in.

Really enjoying it thus far. Has us hooked enough to want to see how Suny/new boss gel, or don't.

And how/where the old duffer fits into the storyline.

Binged on ITVx over the weekend.
Really enjoyed it. Different without Nicola Walker but different in not a bad way.
I went from hoping not to be disappointed to now hoping they make more.

[Dan_1981]

Yeah I enjoyed it.

[Bright Halo]

I think they should do a reveal program of what is in Sunny's back pack!
