One Of Us (BBC this week)

Neither will I. I couldn't watch more than half of it - too dark and unsettling.

It got me thinking: what would I have done in that situation. If I knew 100% that he was the killer of my child, although I don't think I could fire a gun or stab someone I would keep shtum about the killer.

Glad we're not the only ones who gave up after about twenty minutes.

Oh dear! you are all on my husband's side - mind you he dislikes anything "in the dark" and that seems to be the trend these days. We shall continue to watch, I think. I think it will turn out to be quite a surprise. Has a really good cast.

Well, we liked it.

Powerful stuff, loved it. The plot didn't develop until the last 10 minutes or so.

I liked it, too.

I didn't really like it, thought it was OTT, but will tune in again because I dislike unsolved mysteries!

I liked it, the mystery is yet to unfold! Maybe parts of it were somewhat unrealistic, but then so are fantasy type drama series which I don't care for.

The plot is leading us to think it has to be one of the families, but there could still be an unknown character. There are more twists, I think!

I wanted to like it as there has been nothing watchable on telly for weeks imho. It has been written by the brothers who wrote The Missing which I thought was very good. Not sure if I like it or not. Is it just me who finds dramas set in Scotland (at least the ones I have seen) all seem to be similar, raging storms, little dialogue, dark. Dr Finlay's Casebook was never like that. Bring back Janet!

Just watched the first epi on catch-up. Saw juliette Stevenson as the grieving, tanked up on whisky mother, and who else could do the mad, vengeful mum so well?
And don't underestimate a mother's love.

So, can confidently predict it was the Mum Wot Did It, and shan't watch again until the final episode when I'm proved right

Feel a bit the same, will watch and read a book I think, I have started to play count the smiles when watching Shetland and Hinterland, and that includes the times when they are not 'working'. To say they are a dour bunch would be a big understatement.

Hinterland is set in Wales. I don't think the Scots and Welsh are all the same!

Just watched on catchup, I really liked it, but then I like all things dark brooding and sinister, just need better taste in men

Ok, so you use a digger to make whole big enough to get a car in, but then you start filling it in with shovels?

No better this week then?

Nope. Still as dysfunctional as last week. What a shower ?. Kept watching hoping to find something gripping. Is it worth watching next week?

I didn't think the hole was really big enough for the car
And we both remarked on the shovels
And the fact that the police, the journalists will never notice a pile of freshly dug earth. Perhaps they will think it was made by moles or badgers so that will be all right.

No-one seems to have cleaned up the blood, the cage, their clothes, their own car etc.
Oh dear, they deserve to be caught.

Well, I think it has some intriguing side stories, I don't mind some of the obvious things that are not quite right, you never know, there might be a reason for this. Anyway, I am going go continue to watch, the o.h. can fall asleep (easily).

I'm afraid I'm losing the will to live with this. This very dark storyline was totally unbelievable from the word go, and none of the characters is remotely likeable. DH is determined to stick with it.

I need to rewatch it, asleep again

I can't watch these kinds of programmes without picking holes in them
Poor DH (although he did the same about the shovel)

Who writes them?
Enjoyable tosh

Recorded two episides and watched half of the first tonight.We both agreed it was too unbelievable for words.Nobody acted as they really would have done, and the dialogue seemed stilted.Won't watch any more of it.

Won't watch ( silly ipad)
