Anyone started this? And what do you think ? A tad gory for just one episode?

Marydoll Mon 26-Jun-17 07:49:23

Gosh, I had never thought of that. I wasn't paying full attention, as I was trying to play Gransnet games.confused Not very well, I may add

SPOILER guesswork ahead! Don't read if you're not up to date!

Bethan's parents and the noise investigated by the policewoman when she was at the house, what's that about? - and the mother "pregnant"? I think the daughter (Bethan) is pregnant by the creepy teacher, and her parents are hiding her.

After the first episode I thought I wouldn't watch any more. I'm hooked now, there seems to be so much going on and suspicion all around. The trailer for the next episode showed a lot including one thing I was expecting.
As a poster said earlier it's like a very long Midsomer Murder with a dash of Silent Witness! Whoever said that was spot on!

No Spoilers

Did anyone else realise what was in the abandoned car about half hour before they did ?
Why didn't they clear the area before opening it ?

Have been recording this, am fed up with mumbling drama though so not sure if I will stick with it.

Grannyknot Sun 25-Jun-17 22:12:55

shock for tonight.

BlueBelle Sun 25-Jun-17 22:09:11

Access not chess

Nandalot Mon 19-Jun-17 13:40:17

We are gripped by this series. That's what we thought Nina. And who would have chess to that trailer/animal tranporter at the end?

ninathenana Mon 19-Jun-17 06:13:34

Whoever was chasing Evie I would think assumed it was her mum driving.
The vehicle was a 4x4 with a spot light bar on the roof, who have we seen drive one of those ?

BlueBelle Mon 19-Jun-17 06:07:20

What did you make of last night episode looks like the lad is a gonna and who was chasing Evie in the car
I don't like that doctor at all he's on my suspect list what's he up to ?

Sparklefizz Sun 18-Jun-17 09:05:35

Thanks BlueBelle - I'll have a closer look.

BlueBelle Sun 18-Jun-17 03:39:09

Sparklefix the subtitles are usually a button on the remote have a good look at all the buttons on that
Travelafar I find the same at cinemas but thought it was me getting old

grannypiper Sat 17-Jun-17 17:08:53

travelasfar I dont think it is our tv sets that are to blame as the adverts are certainly loud enough

travelsafar Thu 15-Jun-17 08:30:29

It seems to me that many of the new dramas on tv have dreadful sound quality or is it our modern day TV sets that do not project well.

I can not watch any program with out sub titles especialy if there is an accent involved.

With all the new technologhy you would think that this would be an issue that could be sorted out.

I find the same with films, back ground music too loud and special effects that make you jump with the noise but dialogue is dreadful sometimes.

Sparklefizz Tue 13-Jun-17 13:27:03

I'm glad others had problems with hearing what they were saying. I thought it was just me. I'm not at all good with accents anyway, but I just couldn't catch huge chunks, plus I have a new TV set and can't find anywhere in the instruction manual how to put on the sub titles.

harrigran Tue 13-Jun-17 10:08:53

Not sure I can keep watching this and I watched all of the Dexter series.
I do wish the actors wouldn't mumble and with the accent DH struggled to understand most of the dialogue.

BlueBelle Tue 13-Jun-17 08:21:20

I don't worry with the mumbling any more as I use subtitles for all the dramas

Marydoll Tue 13-Jun-17 07:57:18

I quite enjoyed it. I can't wait to watch the next episode and see more of that beautiful scenery. It does seem a pity that the "thick" Scottish police need help from their much cleverer English colleagues. wink.

Jane10 Tue 13-Jun-17 07:25:45

Yuk! Glad I read this before watching my recording. Will delete it and cancel further recording. Life's bad enough without that sort of thing as entertainment.

Christinefrance Mon 12-Jun-17 21:37:34

Yes I noticed that too grannypiper, really annoying.

grannypiper Mon 12-Jun-17 21:22:48

Not sure about this programme but will give it one more chance next week. The sound quality is awful, the volume on my t.v normally sits between 12 and 15 with this show i had to have it at 26.

Auntieflo Mon 12-Jun-17 21:06:39

NotTooOld, I also had trouble with the Scottish accent, perhaps I shall have to use sub-titles next time. My post re this has disappeared into the ether. The brain in the pathology dish though, looked remarkably intact. If it had been pulled out through his nose, wouldn't it have been in bits?

Ana Mon 12-Jun-17 20:11:18

well at least Siobhan Finneran isn't using her usual Lancashire accent Paddyann - you might find that even more difficult...

paddyann Mon 12-Jun-17 19:25:55

Nottoold aren't you lucky they decided Scottish police weren't capable of solving the crime and drafted in a couple of English accents to do it for them.....shame that, because I can understand the Scottish accents perfectly...but some of those english ones are pure torture .
