La casa al otro lado de la calle

I think I have watched a different mini-series to the rest of these reviewers. This was great and my wife and I couldn't stop watching until the very end. Ok the main protagonist was creepy and just a little bit weird, but she made for a very entertaining piece of drama. Also, if you have a brain all will become clear in watching, and I urge you to give it a go and you will be rewarded. Really good performances throughout we highly recommend this series. Just one more thing, is that, when people suggest in movies or TV that certain events couldn't or wouldn't happen, then most of what we watch would be over in half an hour, and what would be the good in that especially in fiction. Go on take a chance you won't be disappointed.

Why hasn't anyone mentioned the underpants!? Omg this was weird, but not a bad fit lol. . What was off whack though was when the dead child's mother goes back to work! I'd be flat on my back or in foetal position for a year.

Moaning myrtle was just the wrong character for this role. Not a bit intriguing just irritating with that awful voice. She's a reasonable actor but should stick to voiceovers. Enough of the weird loud music as well. Just quite pathetic all round. And another thing: why is every blooming drama lately "up north". We do have a lot of other counties you know. I wish producers would get back to making nice enjoyable wholesome food feel stuff. Why does everything have to be off whack and violent?

This show's biggest flaw was being on my5. Which is why it's got barely any reviews. Great performances. Shirley Henderson's performance was creepy as HELL and I could barely watch at times, but this is a testament to her performance and not a criticism. I didn't find it particularly slow. It's a bloody 4 episode miniseries, it barely has time to be slow. A solid thriller let down by being released on a small platform. This would have been smashed on netflix. It's not outstanding but it was thoroughly entertaining, and there was never a point I thought ill of anyone's acting, even the kids. Give it a watch and make up your own mind.

Claudia (played by Shirley Henderson) is a very strange fish. Why does she behave the way she does? Is it that breast cancer -- from which she appears to have recovered -- robbed her of control and so she feels a need to take control when a small child goes missing? And what is it with her apparently heightened sexual frustration? Where does that come from?

Being unable to take Claudia seriously, it's very hard to take this mini series seriously.

Is it entertaining? Well, I watched all four episodes, so it clearly managed to hook me. But the conclusion is rather underwhelming, so I really wouldn't recommend watching this.

Divorced single mum Claudia is desperate to get close to a couple who live across the road from her, a couple who's daughter has vanished.

The latest drama from Channel five, and it's a pretty good production. I'll applaud it for being four parts long, I am struggling with some of the series that are right parts or longer.

It's not the cleanest storyline you'll ever see, it is mixed up, it's a little jumbled, but it's well paced, it's intriguing, it's certainly well acted.

I was reminded a little bit of Deadwater Fell, it's better than some of the recent dramas that have been on, I'd put a lot of it down to Shirley Henderson, her acting was tremendous, I am a huge fan of hers. Claudia is definitely a strange character.

You are made to wait until the very end to learn what happened, and the fourth episode is arguably the most rewarding.

It's a mixed bag, but overall it's enjoyable, 6/10.
