Inside Man BBC1

[HairyWeeTerrier]

That was a big weakness but otherwise I am liking it, first series that has caught my attention since Its a Sin.


He is charismatic, and I love the sidekick with the "photographic memory"

The sidekick is my favourite.

 

[Shesaidwhat?]

Dillon is my favourite thing about this weird weird series.

 

[Lurkiemurkie]

The sidekick is my favourite.

Mine too. He has fantastic (if dark!) lines! I completely agree that the US scenes are so much more compelling than the UK ones.

He made a magazine rack out of one of his victims' rib cage!!! Normally that wouldn't be funny but in this context I laughed.

A drying rack!!! It was the "when she was dead" comment about his mum's feet that made me howl

Who is the actress playing the mother who clearly knows what her son views? I cannot place her. Why did the vicar protect the creep and not just call the police when Janice told him.

I recognised her from call the midwife, she played a mum of a woman who was neglecting her kids and being abused by her husband. She ended up taking on the kids when the parents were arrested

 

[Shesaidwhat?]

That final post credits scene I’m so confused.

 

[MissMissMissy]

I am trying really hard to like this, but I have absolutely no idea what is going on…

also… I have kids right… and I do spend a large amount of my day knowing their location (all ages between 10-25) so I really don’t understand why the son ceases to exist to them at various points.

 

[Eirawen]

The last episode was chaotic but an anti climax I guess there will be a sequel.

 

[Stillwater]

I made it about 20 minutes into episode 1. The opening sequence was so “acty” I cringed myself inside out and looked at the back of the inside of my own head for a while in preference.

 

[Pushyplumb]

I wanted to like this and did make it too the end but yes, an anticlimax and too unbelievable it because silly instead of funny.

 

[Dr Karen Kim]

I think it’s the wife’s “acting” that made it worse, I can excuse the plots in the storyline but the wife was too much.

 

[TinyDancer2602]

Had it not been for this thread I would not have known to go back and watch for the bit at the end after the credits! So thanks, team

 

[Fish & Chips]

Me too! I am still a bit confused though

 

[Rainbowcolours]

Confused by the closing credits too guessing cshe got married after she was found? Guess we will find out in next series

 

[Shutterbug99]

Well, this was disappointing! I thought it was just silly overall.

Thanks for the heads up on the post-credits scene. I would have missed that. I guess this means they'll do another series?

I was hoping to find out a bit more about Stanley Tucci's character/why he killed his wife etc. but they really didn't reveal too much.

Confused by the closing credits too guessing cshe got married after she was found? Guess we will find out in next series

If she did she got married very quickly. She still had cuts on her face and mentioned Stanley Tucci had a week to live - which would have made it two weeks after everything happened.

Unless his execution date was moved and those cuts were from a different incident. Hmmm...

Could be that she was previously married. I can't remember if it was ever mentioned.

 

[TinyDancer2602]

Maybe since she said she hadn’t killed him yet, she hadn’t actually found a husband yet…? Like she just would want to know how to do it and her get away with murder?

 

[Miscanthus]

Maybe since she said she hadn’t killed him yet, she hadn’t actually found a husband yet…? Like she just would want to know how to do it and her get away with murder?

Maybe she marries the vicar and plots to kill him as revenge afterwards.

I'll see myself out.....

 

[TinyDancer2602]

I think he’s in jail now though too. She was a bit quirky…maybe she feels murder would be a good way to get her kicks

 

[Pushyplumb]

I wonder if it will get a 2nd series? It had some clever ideas. I can see how it could carry on but it wasn't as good as I anticipated and some of it was way over the top. Agree with someelse who mentioned the vicar's wife was hammy and over the top.
