Yep just finished watching it - absolutely brilliant! 

Really enjoyed it.  Do you think they might make another series?

Hi Naomi, I read yesterday that there is talks to make another series but not been confirmed, as the first one was such a success it could be hard to live up to. Was interesting to read what bits of 1st one were true and what weren't. The real life Joan is still alive and well and was thrilled with how it's been shown so far. 

To make another series, i beloieve they would have to 'invent' the rest of Joan's life. According to what i read, she gave up her nefarious ways and went straight.

As an aside, the real Joan actually appeared very, very briefly in the final episode.

Whatever happened to the daughter Kelly?? Did she actually exist, as I can't see her mentioned by the real,life Joan anywhere, only that she has a son.

What happened to Joan Hannington’s daughter in real life?

There’s a distinction to be made between Joan's real-life daughter and her daughter in the show. In the ITV show Joan Hannington’s daughter is named Kelly, though her real name is Debbie. Debbie is the daughter of Joan and her first husband, convicted criminal Ray Parvey, who Joan reportedly married when she was 17 years old. Joan’s daughter was placed into foster care and one of the two times Joan has ever been arrested was for stealing a car to go and visit her in care - something that was depicted in the ITV show. It’s not known where Debbie is now and her current relationship with Joan Hannington isn’t known.

Daughter's real name is Debbie (changed to Kelly purely for the series). I'm guessing here, but as 'Debbie' did not attend the premiere of the series with Joan, it looks as if their 'bond' is not a tight one. If, indeed, there is a bond.

As the series was based solely on Joan's book, we only have her account of how hard she tried to keep her daughter and the incident where 'Kelly' finds the gun may or may not have happened. Only Joan knows.

Spoiler alert!

 

 

Boise did not die in a shoot-out - that was pure poetic licence by the series makers. He died in a housefire he had started in order to claim insurance.

Hmmm, yes I did think that may have been the case with  the real life 'Kelly'.

And I read that about the fire - tho thought they did the alternative storyline well.
