bluekarin Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I had to hide behind my ipad when the butchers wife bit was on Prior to 'what happened' I was thinking, lock the front door! Lock the door! But she obv didnt hear me. So sad about Sophie/Alice though I am a bit worried about something happening to the commanders daughter. I think he is very involved in whats been going on but with having dementia or alzheimers, he is forgetting bits and pieces and remembering others. Is his daughter old enough to be a possible child of one the missing girls? Probably not, but just from what he said about her reminding him of someone but not her mum.

Alis girls Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 I assumed Alice was in burning shed? But she could be bluffing. Hope it becomes clearer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I took that to be she reminded him of Sophie/Alice. Hmmm think she is too old to be child of theirs,but there has been no mention of her mother so maybe he was involved with young girls before Sophie / Alice. It must be hard to get thrillers just right. They have you confused.com or else they are too easy,like DCI Banks. I love books and have enjoyed past series but have thought the script and acting in last series very wooden/artificial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 There was a gravestone for whichever girl it was who died. There are some weird things thou - no one heard of dna - they've taken enough blood i would think from the poor girl can't just do a DNA test. Shes not looking any better - would've thought good food, fresh air etc might've perked her up and some concealer for the dark shadows. I thought I was watching walking dead . Also Daily Mail was waffling on about a camper van in episode one and the fact the paint colour is relevant. I think back to episode 1 to see what I have missed.

bluekarin Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I think I shall have to rewatch the first few episodes, before I get too lost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 The first episode showed Alice skiving and walking along a road. The yellow van pulled up and dragged her into the back of the yellow van. The young DUTCH (okay honestly I think they are Belgium) driving through Switzerland passed a red van. When the camera zoomed in, it showed yellow bits and a barking German shepherd. I think it was Sophie burned in the shed. Took me to this episode to realise that the demented man is the same man as the Brigadier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 I think it needs renaming "missing the plot 2" a thriller set to confuse its audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janepie33 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 It's the same camper van! OH noticed a tiny bit of yellow paint on the wheel arch and thought that it had been resprayed. Maybe another girl will go missing.................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 Probably make more sense if I watched it in Dutch makes little sense in English. I remember when we had a thread about "The Returned"no one could work out who was the dead or undead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavclojak Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Exciting stuff this week although i could do without seeing the butchers wife clad in a nighty with a gag in her mouth.. I'm not keen on the flitting from country/time etc but so many shows do It now I kind of expect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 They put her through the mincer didnt they. Hense the close up of some monstrous bit of kit for making some sort of meat product. wasnt so much a nighty as a basque thing - know what you mean though.

Plum Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 If it was Alice's brother who attacked the butchers wife it explains why she was so terrified in the carpark. I stick with my original theories. No wiser about the military police woman's baby. (Brigadiers daughter) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 True there'd be no suspense if everything was revealed at once. But it would help if I didn't drop off to the land of nod half way through.
