Can’t believe we have a third season coming, I thought it was going to be one of those shows that I fall in love with but then disappears. Amazing writing and Sarah Lancashire is incredible.

Well it did disappear for 7 years!! I don’t think Sarah Lancashire likes doing this show, she said she would do season 3 but it’s the last one!!

@Girl101 they all like doing the show, series 3 was always going to be the last one, they waited because they needed the actor for Ryan to be a lot older for thr sake of the story as they didn't want to recast

@Girl-101 Жыл бұрын

Yes I remember that Sally Wainwright had said she wanted the Ryan character to be older as it would make for more stories between he and TLR. Sarah Lancashire was mentally exhausted from playing Catherine because of all the tragedy that the character goes through, that takes it out of some actors & actresses and Wainwright would have continued with other series if Sarah had been on board but many shows stop because the lead actor doesn’t want to go on, Sarah is a huge star in the UK of course, and the actors often make stories better than the writer wrote them, hence why if you miscast an actor then it can ruin a show.

The fact that I have been waiting with bated breath for this third season for SEVEN YEARS, that should tell people how amazing this show is. I'm so happy season three is finally here!

@somecontrol268 Жыл бұрын

Excellent recap, neither more nor less than we need to know. Only nine minutes of your time but worth it to fully enjoy Season 3. Congratulations BBC on still producing quality drama in these challenging times. How wonderful that Sally Wentworth planned this series 5 years ago waiting for Ryan to grow up. Speaks volumes that nearly everyone involved with this was still on board and what a joy it is to see them all again.
