Hopefully not, as they've made it far too obvious if it is.

Pretzill

I think it might be the daughters boyfriend - something off about him?

gmisk

I have only watched episode one.

the daughter's boyfriend is seriously shifty....maybe a red herring, it would be a tad far fetched of he involved in it though?

Kelly Macdonald is brilliant in it.

That was an absolutely brilliant show, great story which kept you guessing with plenty of moral dilemmas thrown in, superbly well acted.

I must say BBC are knocking it out of the park at the moment with their dramas, they're coming one after the other and the standard is so high. Shame that the vast majority of people here just ignore the bbc and watch whatever is trendy on netflix or whatever. Superb stuff!

Really satisfying ending too I thought.

I have only watched 1 & 2 of this but its intriquing and a really good idea for a story - I have to agree some excellent drama from the BBC - it's good to see perhaps the likes of netflix is championing drama too I don't have netflix - and I have also watched a few dramas that have come across from ITV to VM like Cheat etc or the Looming Tower on RTE (excellent too) - You wouldn't be short of strong drama to watch nowadays.

Is that the one where the mother gets killed by her son's killer in the last episode?

Excellent! Two sides of the story really well portrayed. Couldn’t help but think of Jamie bulger?

The thing that threw me was in the first or second episode John Hannah's boss tells him

that Craig is not Eddie Turner. That they are two different people. But that it is 'close to home' or something like that. Which I guess was to try and make us think it was his friend. But I don't get why he would say that other than to throw the audience off. Which was odd.

Thought it was excellent, with great performances all round. The last episode with a couple of the scenes between Anna and Craig were terrific.

Pretzill

It was excellent. Great acting and it really made you think.
