The plot thickens! I'm going to have to watch it again tomorrow and possibly make notes! o_O
Love this.

This drama is too bloody cheesy - even for me!
You are being tailed by someone dodgy so ask for back up. So where do you end up? On the the roof of a car park of course.
I can’t think of a safer place!!! 🤪🤪🤪

Detective Silva is still running around the submarine telling everyone that there has been a murder. She doesn’t play her cards close to her chest does she? 😆

I've rolled my eyes too many times to mention but I'm still watching😂 there's really no need for her to even be on the sub, the body wasn't released so why not just wait til they all get off and question them properly 😑
 
I wish DS Longacre would just remember the number plate and then make a note of it on her phone rather than needing to take a photo. These MI5 officers have obviously never been trained in covert surveillance either, most blatant following possible.

Why did the Navy ask MI5 for information regarding an American submarine, surely that falls under the remit of MI6 or a naval intelligence gathering group.

Finally, if two American military contractors die of mysterious circumstances then an investigation will be conducted. Chucking them in the sea won't cover up the fact they have been "boiled" to death. Every person who sees the bodies would recognise the severe blisters and burn marks and almost everyone would come to the conclusion that it happened in proximity to a nuclear reactor as they are on a base with nuclear subs. The Americans have no reason to cover it up and the fallout from this would cause a massive diplomatic incident.

This show is so frustrating, it could have been really good but it seems to want to go off the deep end at every available opportunity.

The whole emotional backstory of DCI Silva is a bit tedious and it’s obvious she will end up with DS Longacre.

Listening to shrine of duty last night and they were talking about how none of them had any idea about the nuclear weapons in Scotland. It actually shocked me. I live on the other side of the water from faslane it terrifies me that it's so close. But I just wondered is this true of most people in the UK, do people not know trident exists?🤔

I’m also close by and this amazed me too. I feel like they are something I’m always aware of and it just feels weird that people elsewhere in the country don’t even know about them! Even just the other day people were sharing pics of a trident sub up the north coast on Facebook. It’s a common sight if you live on the Clyde or up the Scottish coastline.

It’s beyond ludicrous but I’m invested.

Why on earth would a mother lose custody of her kid because of an accident?

Why would a person with severe water anxiety/ ptsd be sent on a submarine?

But anyway.

It's not her kid. She and the girl's father weren't married, although it sounds as though she brought the child up. No idea what happened to the real mother but presumably the grandparents are the only blood relatives.

Agree with your second point.
