re watched this last night and...few questions...


I really cant 'like' or even empathise with the janet Leach character.
Her personality seemed to wooden and strained...
I feel she doesnt know what side she is on and she is difficult to believe, as a person. Maybe it is the acting.
That aside. I was really impressed with the actors of Fred and Rose.
They were just as you imagined they would be...
couple of things though, I didnt feel it was totally clear about the 20 children in a barn. Was Fred part of this?
Also did he kill Anna Mcfall? He always professed he didnt.
Or is it he just lied and tricked Janet and this is why she was so angry in the end?

reply

Well morally Janet is on the side of the police, but her job requires her to help Fred and give him advice. That's why "what side she's on" is a little complicated. I thought her performance was great.

But yea Dominic West (who played Fred West [no relation]) is a brilliant actor. If you like him then I highly recommend HBO's The Wire, which is widely considered to be the best TV series ever made.

Also, it's assumed that he did kill Anne, but he always denied it. But her body had the same M.O., missing toes and fingers, and of course he had a connection to her.

Thankyou for reply. Will look out for that series. I'm really in to crime tv progs.
