Marcella was great... Been some shows that have had a great start but end up crap, this was great right to the end...

Enjoyed it as well . . .

**SPOILER ALERT**

What happened to the Taxi Driver's brother we have no clue what the f**k happened there!!!

Yeah! She could have him tied up somewhere!! Great show though... Best I've watched this year

Good but no Line of Duty!!!

Watched the first episode of Marcella. Not fussed so far.

On the second episode of 'The Five'. Going well so far.
Watched the last two episodes of The Five on Monday - I did enjoy it, though it was slightly confusing in parts, lots of different storylines that eventually come together.
I've read some Harlan Coben books, was strange to have a UK-based programme as his stories are US-based but it worked well enough.

I finished it the other night - not bad.  Lots of hooks and twists just like his books - enjoyable enough.

Episode 3 was very creepy in parts. Religion in general creeps me out, however those baptist loons take the biscuit !


Bombed through Line of Duty, what a brilliant show.

Aye it's good but unsurprisingly the family have tried to get it put off air. Some of the stuff appears very sensationalised so I can see why they might take offence. Nesbitt is a good creep.

Dunno why the family are trying to get it pulled when the book had already been published. It's just a creepy, creepy story in general and a real tragedy also

screenexile

That's what grates me about these "This is a true story" programmes. . . the main events are true but everything around them including the conversations are all fabricated!!! For example one of the children has come out to say their Mother was portrayed as some pushover who fell to despair after her Father died and slept on the couch taking pills and wine when that was not the case.

It's very well don and creepy in the extreme but I think it is in bad taste when so many of the family are at such a young age to be affected by it!

Milltown Row2

Look to make it a drama there will be parts of it that aren't actually the way it happens but it wouldn't be good tv.... One thing is for sure, they killed and got away with it... Its not great acting to be fair but feck!! If you didn't know about the story you'd not believe it!! Madness how they got away with it
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Jeepers Creepers

It's a story that needs told. Even to highlight the Inadequacies of the police and blindness of their church. Of course theres going to be a bit of poetic license, it's TV.

Anybody watch Gomorrah? Advertisements for it during GoT have caught my eye, might give it a go.

Yes I am watching Gomorrah.  The first series was excellent.  I am enjoying the 2nd series but finding it a bit slower in terms of storyline, I would still recommend watching it though.
