    Enjoyed it, two lead performances are very good. The gym scene was incredibly awkward

    I love Nicola Walker but I found it incredibly boring at times, maybe thats the point I don't know.

    The scene at cemetery was absolutely heartbreaking though.

    I missed episode 1 but watched 2 tonight.

    Liked it and do think the sense of hum drum is part of it.

    The opening and closing credits music is appalling.

    I couldn't sit through it again tonight.

    24h in A&E instead, much more interesting.

    Watched episode 2 as I thought there was some glimmer of hope at end of ep 1 that there'd be some developments. Absolutely dour stuff. I understand they're trying to highlight the mundane realities of the day to day and complex relationships but god almighty there has to be some actual story developments between the mundanities.

    I'll stick with it to see what happens but there's too many unlikeable characters. Even the wife comes across a bit of a ****.

    That waiter fella is a complete mentaler too alongside Sean Bean and the boss. Very strange show

    They all seem a bit “damaged “ for want of a better word…..and the long silences….jeez…..I thought we’d have to sit through the duration of the daughter reading the father’s letter….in silence🙈🙈🤯🤯
