Please don`t flame me, but I don`t understand the subplot with Sabine`s mother saying the belongings found with the unidentified body were Sabine`s. She even said, "I bought her this watch." Then it turned out that the body was not Sabine. What does it mean?
shareI just watched this just now...If I remember rightly, the watch was actually Jane Tennison's - she puts it back on right afterwards. I just assumed she was just testing Sabine's mother (Nola I think she was) to see how reliable she would be in identifying her daughter.
shareJane placed her watch and proved Nola was lying - it was actually her watch - Nola was just desperate to find her daughter - she may have been delusional.

I hate to be pedantic but her name was Simone - not Sabine. The idea of them thinking it may have been Simone and then it turned out to be someone else made the case more complictaed - and real, it also added to the racial tension that this casef focuses on.
I agree with Toxina90 - Nola was just desperate (and perhaps dilusional) to find her missing daughter.
