Anybody watching this Channel 5 thriller?
I started watching last night, Started OK but now has so many holes in it it should be named Swiss Cheese. Shame really as I had high expectations.

It's ok, only 4 episodes so will stick with it.
As with a lot of these type of dramas, everything just goes perfectly to plan, you just find yourself saying 'yeah right' out loud as you watch it. smile

I was hooked the minute I heard the word "threesome" come out of Rachel Shenton's mouth smile

It is both rubbish and good in the same moment. Yes many many holes in it, but also it is quite disturbing in the same way making it quite good bizarrely. Normally I am first to turn stuff off but for some reason i stick with this one. Maybe it was the mention of the threesome!

Decided to watch the final episode last night. Problem is, as much as I like Jo Joyner, she plays the exact same character in everything she's in.

How ? I didn't think you could watch them in advance ?

Yeah, we figured we may as well finish it last night.

Not enough time spent on the Rachel Shenton in lingerie scene imo . . . ;-p

I said exactly that about Jo Joyner too - she seems to be typecast as 'easily taken for a mug'.

Me either but, when we went to watch episode 3 last night, 4 was sitting there as well.

Nice surprise as My5 was actually down when we 'tuned in' live at 9pm. Had to settle for Rookie Feds and go back later.

Check her out in No Angels. She'd have been in her twenties then and a completely different role / character to the ones she does now.

I forgot she was in that and you're right she was a different character as opposed to her more recent roles which all seem to be the Tanya Branning character, she played on Eastenders.

You couldn't until last night when they put the last episodes on My5.

Watched it to the end last night.

Have decided I’m not going to be suckered in by any more of these multi-part series offered up by the BBC, ITV or C5 as the last three or four I’ve watched have been hugely disappointing.

I’m going to stick with ploughing through my Lucifer DVD box set instead.
