The Returned (Les Revenants)

[Eve]

Is anyone watching the second series?

I was trying to remember last night whether the police officers Laure and Thomas were outside The Helping Hand when they sealed it up in the last season finale to protect Adèle and the others) and have therefore disappeared with the other police officers outside overnight.

I thought Thomas at least was inside but I may be remembering wrong.

Good way of trying to brush up on my French too though am so very rusty! I struggle with Camille a bit though.

I'm definitely intrigued as to where it is going. Was quite pleased to see the main baddie from Witnesses (Les Temoins) appear!

I would have like to have seen a rerun of the first series as I'd forgotten quite a bit. Are they showing it anywhere?

I watched it and was a bit confused. The french lady that I work with was also a bit lost so I didn't feel too bad.

I wish they had recapped a bit of the last episode.

Adele's baby, are we sure it's the dead husbands? Her dates seem to be wrong so maybe it's the pervy copper's that she lived with.

I'm not sure about reruns but there is a round up here:

I wondered about the scan dates, couldn't work out whether she was further along as it was Thomas' baby after all or whether it was some mutant extra quick pregnancy (with her not seeing anyone medical through it). It suggests she had thought it Simon's with her efforts to end the pregnancy but she didn't seem much better even after the scan so I'm a bit lost there.

He seems to have vanished so I can only think he was with the group of the Gendames outside who disappeared. That or his wife to be potentially having a half undead baby with her dead husband....

A half undead baby could be a bit weird!

I'm sure it said 6 months on at the beginning of the episode and the scan said she was eight months though it's not clear how long a period the first series spanned. Didn't seem like two months.

Indeed. Friday's episode asked more questions than it answered. Still good though :)

I started a thread on TV but didn't get many answers, more info on here but it seems we are all in the same boat.

I read that we will get answers this season, even if it goes to a third season.

I'm quite lucky in that I've only watched the first season very recently, rather than back when it was on TV, so it's fresher in my memories but I'm still left with all kinds of questions.

I have to also not get caught up between the subtitles and French as they do say and phrase things differently to the subtitles, as is natural, and it can get quite distracting.

I'm glad it's not just me, Eve :)

Glad to know there are some fans on here :) And those none the wiser either haha! I think we may need done what??? threads over the coming series!
