Hi Patsy no I heven't seen it but woah based on a true story... I'll keeep an eye out for 'it' and I love creepy scary stuff Stepphen King type stuff...

[Patsy33]

Worth a watch, Arky. I wouldn't say it's on par with a Stephen King film.. :-))

[Arksided]

OK but non the less' I'll give it ago.. ;-)

Yes watching it, have watched the series on Netflix, but this one is intriguing, Colin Firth, Toni Colette brilliant in this.

[Patsy33]

Oh yes, Colin Firth was brilliant. I didn't realise it was him at first. I kept thinking, he looks like Colin Firth, only older and fatter! :-)) Toni Colette was her usual brilliant self too.

I've only watched four episodes but I'm enjoying it. I think Colin Firth is playing the role quite brilliantly. Mr Darcy he ain't!

Is this the same storyline as "Close to Me" starring Christopher Ecclestone and Connie Neilsen that was shown recently on (I think) ITV?

[Patsy33]

No, not that one. I watched that. We liked it.

My daughter has a transvestite that work at her place of work. One day he was bent over his computer with his mini dress on and everyone could see his very small pink frilly knickers showing, with most of his private bits hanging out! Nobody dared say anything, but was quite bemused...

[Patsy33]

Omg! So sorry..
Wring thread..:-))

I watched this from right back when Peterson was preparing to present his defence, certain that he would be found innocent. It was a live fuming of his house full of people, lawyers (his brother was one of them) so many working to prepare his case. This long running series was an original documentary and it became clear to some of us viewers that he was guilty. He was soaked in blood, far more than would have been from a mere fall. He stated on his call to 911 that "she's still breathing" and then she suddenly was not. The congealed blood prved that she had stopped bleeding long before the phone call.

proved

[Patsy33]

Interesting, Stargazer.
Can't wait to see new episode. I don't know the outcome, but believe him to be guilty..

// I kept thinking, he looks like Colin Firth, only older and fatter! //

There was one point when he looked particularly jowly and I thought he looked like Matthew Perry when Perry had let himself go a bit. My daughter scoffed, until she looked back at it.
I'm just watching the last episode, not sure I could sit through thee documentary though.

[naomi24]

I watched the final episode last night. Intriguing... to say the least.

Colin Firth is a far better actor than I ever before gave him credit for. I under-estimated him.

[Patsy33]

Got a couple more to go, Naomi. Colin Firth proved himself to be an incredible actor.
