Me too - lost concentration for a couple of minutes (reading a4a!) and suddenly whole plot revealed. Asked OH what was going on - he said dunno, don't understand. LOL

Was really good until last two episodes then went strange.

I lost interest half way through the first episode.  Has the Beeb lost the plot?

i watched it well all but the bits i nodded off. i find i forget whats happening between episodes. it seems she went to get flowers saw the guy who was getting cigs for her dad had a go at him got knocked out, he put her in his car
tried to pick kids up but dog stoped him taking the boy.thought she was dead,matts friend got involved here? they threw her in the lake but she wasn,t dead like they thought. (loosing the will to live here, are you) lots of sub plots and emoting with the awful music (DH is snoring) simple aint it?
::)marg ::)

Didn't watch it, but from overheard conversations at work (seems a lot of people didn't understand the ending), it was Matt's friend from the gym who was the guilty party. He had got leanne pregnant and was beating up the other guy to stop him talking about it. If that makes any sense?

Yeah, they never clarified the pregnancy thing, or really the whodunnit thing either - unless I nodded off without noticing!

Deep intake of breath - here goes -
What I understood was that the Army pal was involved with the Bosnian "flower seller" in the illegal import of the ciggies (which the Kyle guy was keeping in the grandad's (Edward Woodward's) caravan and by SHEER COINCIDENCE when the wife stopped to buy flowers she saw the Army guy transacting a deal with the Bosnian so he bundled her into the van and subsequently disposed of her!!!  Don't think they did expand on the pregnancy bit we assumed that meant it was the husband's.

Phew...................
