Troubled Blood.

Watched episode 1 on the recommendation of a friend. Now I’m a fan. Must watch earlier series on catch up on those evenings when there’s nowt else on.

The books are brilliant. Am revisiting them through the audiobooks on Audible.

Is it only me, or is Cormoron's speech all on one level?

Auntiflo I thought that as well, more monosyllabic
I m not as excited as I expected Early days perhaps I ll get more interested as it goes on

If have him...love a chunky guy who enjoys his dinner.

I think Robin fancies him whatever, heavy or not!

As do all his ex girlfriends.

According to the books, he’s very overweight, a heavy smoker and drinker, eats loads of junk food, a mardy looking so and so, noticeable problems with his prosthetic leg, lives in a poky flat above his office, and although the business is doing well now, used to be hand to mouth money wise in the past.

Despite all that, the ladies can’t resist him.

Think he must be great in bed!

He sounds swoonworthy😂
Still, I don’t watch dramas for the fit blokes, or do I?😊
Have recorded it to watch thanks.

Is it only me, or is Cormoron's speech all on one level?

Yes, think it’s meant to make him sound more, I don’t know really, detached? professional?

Not keen on it though.

Too many characters in it for me, bit confusing.

Who bothers listening to him talk?? Swoon, Swoon.

Like the book the dramatisation of Troubled Blood is the stand out amongst all of them so far. I binged on the final two episodes last night, the pairing of Holiday Grainger and Tom Burke in the two leads couldn't be better imo wonderful casting there which is not always the case once readers have formed an opinion of what characters should look like in their mind's eye.

Avid viewers like me might be interested to know that the actress who plays the older version of the practice nurse in Troubled Blood, Anna Calder-Marshall is actually Tom Burke's mum in real life.

I'm currently reading The Ink Black Heart wondering how that will transfer to the screen given there are a lot of on line conversations, will have to wait and see.

Thanks for that information about Tom’s mum Terri I agree about transferring the latest book to the screen, tricky.
