Broadchurch, Series 2

[aearwen2]

Well, Hubby and I had ordered the boxed set of Broadchurch Series 2 from the UK, and we finally finished the entire series last night. We'd thought to finish Sunday, Tuesday, but we ended up watching Episodes 5 thru 7, ending on the horrible cliffhanger at the end of that one

hello love!
LOVE your thoughts here. Was really hoping to reply this weekend but alas work and Easter took up all my time. Will keep this tab open til I get to it but in the meantime, my tumblr https://www.tumblr.com/blog/mollyapple is where I ended up venting all my BC feels and thoughts, positive and negative. And as my tumbling is at best sporadic, I haven't been back there since which at least means that link will take you to a bunch of Broadchurch stuff and nothing else until you scroll back in time a few pages!

I think only one of those is a rant, but I'd be curious for your take on it (AKA salvage my love of this pairing with a positive spin if you feel so inclined??! *hopes*) http://mollyapple.tumblr.com/post/112039691061/broadchurch-will-the-real-alec-hardy-please-stand

>>The first comment I want to make may offend those of my f-list in the UK: I find I have a lot less consideration for British jurisprudence and processes now than I did before I started. I mean!! Allowing a verdict with less than 100% agreement among the jury?? In the US, the verdict at the end of this one would never have been presented. Instead, we would have had a "hung" jury, meaning either the prosecution decided to try the case all over again with a new jury (and both sides knowing all the nasty little bits of info that were going to come out this time) or the case would be summarily dismissed

Having said that, I LOVED Eve Myles and her HAWT hubby (yeah am failing to remember character names) because right from the start I cared about them and their storyline and their relationship was genuinely interesting
