could be fun :)
ReplyDeleteNot for her, though :)
DeleteIt looks like an interesting one!
ReplyDeleteChannel 5 does have interesting thrillers.
DeleteIf my child went missing, I would drive myself mad trying to find their face in every stranger until my dying breath, I would think.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if she is crazy or if someone really did steal her son? Given that she is attacked at the end of the trailer, he was probably stolen from her. Back in the older decades nurses used to steal babies from hospitals telling mothers their babies died and then the baby stealing mafia would just sell the baby to interested parents without kids. Some mothers are still trying to find their babies stolen like that, because a mother always feels if her kid is dead or not.
DeleteMaybe her son died and she went crazy thinking he was still alive? I had a dream Allison died once and omg I woke up and couldn't breathe. The pain and grief was overwhelming, nothing like I had ever experienced before. Even when I realized it was just a dream and she was fine in her room, that grief still lingered for days. I can't imagine how I would carry on losing a child if a dream shook me up that much. I believe I really would go mad.
DeleteIt was probably a sign of something, deary. Either she had some health problems back then and you were worried or it was a kind of an omen, you have to see what dreaming one's kid's death means in dream books. I dreamt about dentists every time my grandparents and father died, so when my grandpa died after grandma I knew what the dream means and was scared when it announced the deaths of other two grandparents and later my father as well. But my most usual nightmare is that I forgot to do an exam at the college and that I will have to go back to do it LOL That is the worst nightmare for me.
DeleteOooh, having to go back to school would be a true nightmare. I hated it the first time around. I'd surely hate it again, awake or dreaming!
DeleteI always wake up from it drenched in sweat and breathless.
DeleteSo love seeing Jonas Armstrong again!
ReplyDeleteI personally haven't seen him since Troy on BBC.
DeleteHe was in The Bay.
DeleteWe don't cover crime, so we missed that one, sadly.
DeleteKnew it was a mystery right after seeing the promo photos, without even reading what it's written over them 😜
ReplyDeleteThe poster is so very obvious, but Rupert does look strange in it, he is much more handsome in reality.
DeleteI would go far as my body would allow me to find a missing child. Ugh, I can't even think about it!
ReplyDeleteVery scary!
