Unforgotten - ITV

Having reflected a bit, there are a lot of loose ends I’d like cleared up... what did Liz tell her dad before he died? Sheila Hancock was so vile but under-utilised overall. Same with the tension between Ram and his dad, was that from his career choice? His first marriage not working out? His dodgy dealings?

Too many characters in the mix for a series that ultimately was only really about our Cass. I’m still gutted about that bit!
 
I was thinking that the girl with the red hair seemed to be in a lot of the scenes, do you think she could be Sunny's new partner? I'm not over it yet.


I thought the same, we seem to have got to know her a bit more recently.

Also disappointed with the ending, it felt very rushed. Why hadn't they picked up before about the connection with Dean's brother? I really didnt want it to be dean! Why was dean paying ram ? Surely they would have picked up their connection sooner. Maybe I'm just trying to distract myself from potential loss of my fave series and upset of losing main character ! I cant believe she died, I thought she lose some brain function, then all of a.sudden her grave stone:(
 
ITV have confirmed that there will be a fifth series.

I've been thinking about last night. I think the way Cassie died was perfect for the show.

I said previously one reason why I enjoy 'Unforgotten' so much is because it is understated. They could have gone down a much cliche ridden route of having her die a hero in the line of duty or something more schmaltzy like on the phone to her Dad when hit by the car but they didn't.

It came out of the blue. An accident that sounded like it was her fault. Tired and distracted. Unresolved issues with her father and work. No miraculous recovery. All messy and unexpected. Just as real life can be.

100% agree. Still wish it hadn’t happened but I agree it was very understated and shocking. Probably why we are all in tears.
Chris Lang said “ season four is about our relationship with the police “ and how we can sometimes have a love/hate relationship with them but ultimately he hoped it was love 😭. I think that came across really well. The job was making her ill, she didn’t want to go back, she told Sunny to rein her in if necessary, she was letting the stress filter into her private life, maybe a tad paranoid, never had time for the boyfriend, and was giving her all to the job while up against people in her own line of work, both higher powers ( her own superior ) and corruption ( Ram, Liz ) in the force. Then just as she’s about to retire, one last job, just like that, her time is up. She sacrificed it all.
I think sometimes we focus so much on what the police don’t do we forget about the cost/price they have to pay for serving us.
 
Oh my God!!!!!!!!! What the duck!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe the other characters' involvement was so minimal...the thing with Dean's brother seemed to come out of nowhere. Shell-shocked
 
Just watched and I agree with most of the comments. Wasn't expecting her to die. I had actually "forgotten" about the accident last week (excuse the pun). I have so many unanswered questions and feel we were a bit short changed. What was the point in all the story lines (horrible mum, drugs run to France etc) without telling us what happened. Also, controversially, Cassie was pissing me off this series with her big long miserable face 😩 Will be delighted to see it back next series with Sunny
