No Return viewers threaten to switch off after ‘slow’ episode 2

Last night’s episode saw the Powell family embroiled in even more drama whilst out on their holidays in Turkey.

In episode one, Kathy’s (Sheridan Smith) son, Noah, was arrested on the suspicion of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy, Milo.

However, in last night’s episode, Milo retracted his statement.

Elsewhere, Kathy and her husband Martin raised eyebrows by lying to each other continuously, and Kathy’s sister, Megan, looked to be on the brink of an affair.

Plenty of questions remain unanswered as the show heads into its final two episodes.

Why has Milo retracted his statement? What are Kathy and Martin going to do without a lawyer? And why has no one contacted the British Embassy yet?!

However, not all viewers were as impressed with last night’s episode, with some branding it too “slow”. Some even went as far as to switch the ITV drama off!

“Episode two and three of #noreturn VERY SLOW AND CHUFF ALL HAPPENING… Could have done without these two really, surely it could have been a two-parter???” one viewer said.

“Good god this is slow,” another said.

“Just can’t get into this programme, time to turn off I think,” a third wrote.

“I’m not feeling this at all. Don’t think I’ll bother watching the rest,” another tweeted.

A fifth viewer said: “Catching up on #NoReturn it’s like a dark version of #Benidorm might switch off!”

However, there was plenty of praise for No Return online though.

“This drama is more like it – I didn’t really like The Teacher but this is way better. This could happen to anybody, what a nightmare,” one viewer said.

“Watching No Return, Sheridan Smith is excellent,” another said.

“This is good, this is very, very good,” a third wrote.
