    I like the actors, but I think if perhaps Val's character was 60 versus 50.
    And the older 2 daughters mid 30s rather than 20s.

    It just seems incredibly unrealistic that Anna as a very young woman would have met Rory, dated him (slowly, seeing as he had young children), married him, successfully taken on role of stepmother etc...and still be only 30?

    Even for the 2 teenager boys to call Dennis grandad, would imply surely, that he was a long time in their lives.
    Just the timeline seems off.

    Oldest of them is 32, they'd not be flattered by your guesses.

    Re Anna, take a look around at wealthy men and who they're with.

    Wouldn't they call him Grandad cos he was?

    Not just wealthy men. A lot of farming men in the West would have much younger wives.

    Same for me, and roughly a third of the men I know.

    Yeah, the uncle was discussed. And I reckon that'll form a crucial part of the solution. What if it was Dennis'? Give's Val another reason to give him a shove. Or Jenny herself.

    Or it could be a now minor character who's interest is still to be revealed!

    I was wondering was Grace sexually assaulted by a relative, and that was why she was brought for an abortion.

    This is possibly one of the worst scripts I’ve ever seen/heard.

    Have to agree and the acting is atrocious.

    Anna knows her husband has a brain tumour and lets him clatter his son and she allows this happen . You would think she would protect her boys from that

    Drugs, music, party?


    It's become little more than a soap opera at this stage. Disapointing after a decent start.

    I actually am beginning to think this series was put together by the Clare tourist board. The scenery looks fantastic but the acting and script is ****e.

    Disappointed with tonight's episode. If I see Dervla Kirwin staring out a window or out to sea once more I'll push Ms Marple of the cliff myself. Was it not strange that the Garda called to house along with yer one the complainant peeping over the shoulder. Was Callum not hitching a lift out of town when the boyos picked him up ? No doubt next week will tell us more about the expectant GP, the alleged sperm donator and the missing money.

    The episode last night was the weakest of the series so far.

    It looked like Callum being a suspect for the murder of Denis was going to be the focus of the episode but it deviated from that arc. The previous pattern was for a character to become a suspect and then subsequently ruled out (Grace, Carl). But we are still none the wiser about Callum.

    If it isn't Callum....
    Did Frank kill his brother for ruining his marriage?
    Did Jenny kill her stepfather for persuading her to invest €100k into a doomed investment?
