Hey Hobos,
After the success of the four part series on BBC, Single Father, I was waiting in anticipation for this new series on ITV. The trailer was enough to completely freak me out and now, having literally 10 minutes ago finished watching episode one, I am completely shaking! If you watched it, you will understand, if you didn’t watch it, catch it on ITV Player and you will understand.
The story revolves around a young married couple. The man’s parents buy them a house very close to their own. The girl, Ruth, becomes pregnant very early on in the episode and slowly and surely we, as the audience, get introduced to just how crazy her mother-in-law is.
The series is supposedly based on a novel by Phillipa Gregory. I have read one of her novels and was not particularly impressed, I much prefer a James Patterson or an Agatha Christie.
The baby is born and the drama unfolds with flashbacks, tragedy, deception and a good dose of manipulation. Like with the first episode of Single Father, I am a bit unsure about the series however, no doubt I will be found in front of my television next Monday evening at 9.00pm.
Did you catch any of The Little House or Single Father? What do you think of them? How do they compare?
MH xXx
