In the words of Dorothy Parker Kate Beckinsale runs the gamut of expressions from a to b.

There have been a lot of comments on Twitter regarding her possibly having had Botox on her forehead. It is all a bit silly.

Just on her forehead !? Her whole face looks as though it’s been inflated.

Poor old Emmanuel! And good for Ivette, I thought she did well in the scene where she told Georgia what she thought of her.I
So Blind Ariel. Why wasn't he named as a survivor then if he was on the plane?
I can't begin to understand why Will was in that crate!

Ariel said that all the information about the crash that was given out was false, in that there were survivors, and it was a bomb not an engine malfunction. So he said he was a survivor and the Internet information is wrong

And it was Emmanuel’s wife who took the bomb on board. Didn’t someone say in the first episode that there had been a politician on the plane?

Yes, there was a politician on board, who was strongly opposed to the government - the transport minister, who was supposed to be giving information to the people waiting for news about the flight, started to use this to make a political speech - Emmanuel was incensed.

How did the Charles Dance character know about Arial? And where to find him? Also, what relation is he to Georgia. I thought at first he was her father but I don't now.
Despite all this charging about, I don't think Georgia conveys much of an emotional response to the possibility that Will is alive. There seems something a bit detached about her to me. She's angry and wants answers etc but there isn't much sign of emotional devastation, unlike the Belgian series. I find the child soldiers more interesting on the whole.

I haven’t watched either of this week’s episodes. I think I have given up. Will read this thread to see what happens.

BTW it took me ages to work out who the guy playing the doctor/aid worker who took Georgia to that town is. Porthos from The Musketeers!

Is it just me or is this getting more ridiculous every week? One minute it’s “three years ago” then “seven years ago” then we presume it’s the present but it’s so confusing, I wonder whether I shall bother to watch again, I don’t really care what happens to Georgia anyway.

I'm managing to keep on top of the time jumps, but it would help if following an "x years ago" sequence they would show "present day" so we can quickly re-adjust. Each week we seem to get a bit of someone's back story, though it's difficult to see how Siobhan Finneran's character can be in any way relevant to the plot (unless just to show why Judith might have been in a frame of mind to get involved with this coltan smuggling business).
The body count is piling up. At this rate there'll be hardly any characters left for the finale. When the army general started seeing hallucinations of the two women he's killed (or at least been responsible for the death of) I began to wonder if I'd inadvertantly switched over to Ghosts on BBC1. I presume the other one, not Emmanuel's wife Gaelle, was the general's own wife who Will was briefly dallying with.

Regardless of whether it fitted into or furthered the plot, I enjoyed the Siobhan Finneran scenes with Judith. They were better played than a lot of it! And I did shout conwoman as soon as she approached Judith at the funeral.
So Arial has now joined the body count! Or so I deduce from that rather large grave Sydney appears to have made for him!
At one point I found the time leaping very confusing this week. Then there was one sequence where it played out for quite a long time in the present and it was quite enjoyable.... so too tricksy for its own good I think.
If Will is just working in Rwanda, why on earth hasn't he bothered to let her know in three whole years that he is still alive? But then as his mode of transport was a wooden box, I guess he isn't a free man!

Unless he’s having himself smuggled across borders for some reason?

This leaping about from one time to another is driving me mad.
Got to watch it to the end, I will be glad when it finishes though

Anymore to come?
