It’s difficult to talk about without spoiling that WTF ending, though it is a situation where telling potential viewers there’s a huge twist - more than one, actually - will in no way prepare them to work it out ahead of schedule. Before Louise can stop herself, she has fallen into bed with David and become close friends with Adele, convinced she can maintain both relationships without anyone finding out.īut then? Well… then, Behind Her Eyes becomes a different kind of story altogether, and a much sillier one. He is, of course, married - and, worse, he is Louise’s new boss, David (Tom Bateman), new in town along with his glamorous, mentally ill wife Adele (Eve Hewson). On a lonely night out at a pub, she hits it off with a handsome stranger, but he runs off right when the evening is about to advance to the next step. Louise (Simona Brown) is an English single mom who works part-time in a psychiatrist’s office.
Behind her eyes season 1 series#
Adapted by Steve Lightfoot and Angela LaManna, the series starts off in familiar, secure territory as an erotic thriller about a love triangle. The shame of it is that Behind Her Eyes the TV show is actually pretty good, until it starts prizing wild twists above all else.

I have not read Pinborough’s novel, and only learned of the hashtag after watching all six episodes of the new Netflix limited series version of Behind Her Eyes. Behind Her Eyes, a bestselling thriller written by Sarah Pinborough, was marketed with its own hashtag, #WTFThatEnding, that can be interpreted two ways: as a lure convincing potential readers that they’ll be delighted by an unexpected conclusion, or as a warning that they’ll want to hurl the book across the room upon finishing.
