Title: The Cuckoo
Post by: Alex on April 12, 2024, 09:46:36 PM
I'm watching this on channel 5 catch up, it's good a lot of twists to the story.  Four episodes.

Is this one of J K Rowlings stories?  She wrote adult fiction as  Robert Galbraith.

I watched it Tuesday - Friday this week.
I thought it was good,  and Jill Halfpenny was really creepy.   Good acting I thought.

I have it recorded.  We started watching, but my OH wasn't keen.  One to watch alone later. 

I don't think this Cuckoo is by Robert Galbraith/JK Rowling (my hero atm).

I  think JKR one is The Cuckoo's Calling. The first (I think) Strike novel.

I saw some suggestions that the ending was a disappointment so I'll await later comments.

Available in the Emporium so I've downloaded it in case.

I've watched it.  Like the curate's egg IMO.
