1st episode and good so far.

[looobylooo]

thanks coobeastie.
yep, its looking good so far isnt it - it seems a bit similar to that single married other series that was on a while ago - that had me in tears that did.

[Coobeastie]

Didn't catch that one but my wife is reliably sniffling beside me

[funnygirl]

It was ok!
Bit predictable!

[looobylooo]

i filled up at a couple of parts, imagining his pain and sadness, imagining how he mustve been feeling...

[anneasquith]

Generally liked the play - or at least first of four and a little unsure if it will warrent the whole 4 hours.

Little lost on one point. David Tennats wife (before Rita) was called Michelle - he said to his football friend.

When Ritas sister came in she made a remark something like - 'Oh shes here' we thought to Sarah - (Suranne Jones) and this puzzled both me and OH

Then noticed in the credits that there was a Michelle in the cast list. Was this a) his first wife and b) where was she in the play??

TIA

When Rita's sister came in talking to her husband she was on about friends (Surrane Jones) and ex-wives (the woman sitting next to Surrane).

[Captin Kirk]

btw - I know the policemen who pulled David over were a little uncomfortable about one of their own killing his wife but would they really have left there at the side of a busy road in the distressed state he was in?

and another thing ... David Turner played by David Tennant ... does he have a problem remembering his lines or something???

[puternut]

Thanks Captain Kirk (or can I call you Tiberius 'Tibby' for short). We didnt realise ex-wife was there and we only saw Ritas sister & mother arrive

[Captin Kirk]

No probs ... can I call you "nut" for short? ... :-)
