Here's a link to the preview of the next episode with our Jon very much in the limelight. Be warned a very disturbing scene happens before we see Jon. If you want to avoid it go to about 45 secs. Jon comes in at 52 secs www.itv.com/dramapremieres/vera/

I watched Vera last week and watched and watched and watched - it took three ad breaks to rustle up the toasted cheese crumpets topped with red onion marmalade - lest I miss Jon........I never saw him yet!! But supper was delicious!!
I tried Pete's link (at work, sneaky!!) and it wouldn't work; last night's episode is recorded for watching tonight - it's on too late for me on a school night!!

Tried watching the whole programme last night, think it may be a bit too bleak for me, I'm afraid. Will give it another go next week though.

You're right Penny - I loved Brenda Blethyn in "Little Voice" and anything else I've seen her in but this character of Vera (not BB's fault obviously) is just not believable and the whole thing is a bit dreary, really. Nice to see Jon on the box though, nice man

I really enjoyed it although I still can't work out why the son put the scarf in the piano. In an interview BB said that she based her Geordie accent on Cheryl Cole.........................

Watched the last episode of the series last night - still not sure what to make of it. Jon Morrison has been great - I think he should have had the lead role...but then they couldn't have called it Vera! ;D

He IS an act-tor, after all!!
I ended up rather enjoying it - last night's was the first one I didn't click early on - but I was full of pink pills........

(it's probably indigestion )

Works for me!!
