    Intriguing

    An intense and sultry episode, slowly unravelling the relationship between Lizzie and Colin.

    An intriguing and compulsive watch.
    9Sleepin_Dragon

    Hard hitting drama.

    Sadie continues to get to know prime suspect Colin Stagg, but the role is having a profound effect on her wellbeing, she is suffering.

    If you thought part one was hefty and intense, this takes it a step further, this is one real slice of heavy, hard hitting drama, viewed from the point of view of Sadie, we get to see her emotions, and the lengths she's having to go to.

    Excellent once again, I could have easily sat and watched the whole lot, but I'll watch the next two tomorrow evening.

    The scene with the phone call and remote control was excellent, had me on the edge of my seat. Some of those dream sequences were harrowing.

    Edge of the seat stuff this, 9/10.
