Mark sobers up, and like a dog with a bone is determined to find his wife, convinced that she is being held against her will at Meadowbank. Mark has quickly made the acquaintance of Blanche, a drunk and a psychic, who tells him that Clare isn't dead, but nor is she alive.
It's a very strong second episode, I am still getting the vibe of Francis Durbridge's novel my wife Melissa, the basic plot is very similar, a man distraught by the sudden disappearance of his wife, however the presence of Beatrix Lehmann's character gives a very different vibe. I am intrigued to know what exactly has happened to Clare, is it possible for her to be not dead but not a live either?
The acting is terrific, James Bolam is great as always, but Beatrix Lehmann is a joy to watch.
Intriguing, 8/10.
