"riviera" - Spoiler Alert!!!

[SurreyGuy]

Having watched the first two episodes of this series, I downloaded the remaining eight episodes and watched them over the weekend. I have to say I was both slightly confused and very disappointed with how the series ended.

With that in mind, I'd appreciate t if someone could please tell me........

1. How did Georgina find out about the boat named "Marjorie"? I only recall seeing her on the phone asking about whether or not a gallery called Galerie Marjorie (which appeared on the back of the paintings) existed.

2. How did Georgina manage to contact the gang who were the rivals of Grigory Litvinov and who turned up at the meet she had arranged to hand over the "key" to the hard drive?

3. How did Georgina know that her husband's death was (his son) Adam's fault?

4. Does anyone else think that Phil Davis' character (Jukes) was weak not believable?

5. Did anyone else think the ending was rather pants?!

Unless anyone else has downloaded the series they can't answer - could be seen as a bit of a spoiler :(

Doh! You said that in your title - sorry.

1: She found the name "Marjorie Gallery" in the back of one of the paintings, the fake, called around, found no such gallery existed, finally found it on her own accidentally, while walking around the marina.

2: no clue. I couldn't figure that out either.

3. She put 2 and 2 together after a lot of things didn't add up. He was seen with Nadia at a party, his story about Dad cheating with Nadia was proven to be a lie by a few reliable sources, the coincidence that he happened to have the key, bug mostly just the little lies, she just intuited. I think lots of what they're trying to show is that she's very cunning and smart.

4. Agreed, especially after that conversation on the bench at the beach.

5. WORST ENDING EVER!!! Spoiler alert below:!!!!!

So much does not make sense. She's smart and sympathetic, a normal person suffering, until the last minute of the series. Then: What The Funicular??? Makes no sense. How will she get away? What will she do with the (ahem) evidence that's sitting around on the boat? Where does she think she's going to go? She has no luggage no clothing no nothing. How did she all of a sudden become a professional sailor? What happens to Clios does he go back on Drugs? Did Irina really set up Negrescu, or did she just say that to save face with her son? HELP!

IS CONSTANTINE ALIVE? Fake passports for both of them. "Join me".

The only way the ending is halfway acceptable to me aside from her sudden personality change, is: that they already know that this is a season two this is a cliffhanger, and that last part of her going off the rails is a dream.

Sorry for some typos! Can't figure out how to edit a posted comment ;)

Nickis1021 - thanks for those answers.
 
I'd also like to know how to edit a post.
 
1. I know that Georgina found "Galerie Marjorie" on the back of paintings - I did mention that in my question.
 
However, I don’t think that she accidentally found the boat in the marina. One of the last scenes before she went to the marina showed her talking on the phone - the person she was talking to directed her to something/somewhere in Nice, but it wasn’t made clear as to how (assuming it was the “Marjorie” that she was being directed to) the topic of conversation changed from “I’m trying to find a gallery called Galerie Marjorie” to “There is a sloop named ‘Marjorie’ in a marina in Nice”.
 
2. I’m glad I’m not the only one puzzled.
 
3. Yup, all of that makes sense.
 
4. :o)
 
5. I concur! Well, apart from the ending of “Lost”, which frustrating me soooooooooooooooo much, meaning I’d wasted 6 years of my life that I’ll never get back!
 
Your “conclusions” at the end are really good.
