@ByrneingCutie (AKA Karen) tweeted her reactions to Episode Two of Quirke, entitled The Silver Swan, last night and here is her Twitter stream for you to enjoy!
The third and final episode of Quirke, Elegy for April, airs in the UK this Sunday, June 8. I have seen it and I can tell you it is my favorite of the three, due in part to the writing but also because of the story itself, which I found compelling. In addition, we now know the characters better. We have an understanding of the setting and the time. And someone has fixed the sound problems! So, all in all, this last episode will be a treat, I promise.
Enjoy Karen’s tweets for The Silver Swan and be on the lookout for her last live-tweet session early next week! Many thanks, Karen!
I will be watching last Sunday’s #Quirke tonight and tweeting opinion for the benefit of @Byrneholics and #GabrielByrne fans. #SoYouKnow

#Quirke is beautifully filmed has to be said. They also appear to have found the light switch & turned the volume up.

The guy playing Leslie White in #Quirke is the very essence of total, utter creep.

“and who are you?” “Quirke” That’s all you need to know mate and he’s got your number. Gabriel Byrne making one word into a threat. #Quirke

That all took longer in the book but they only have so much running time.. well done though #Quirke

I don’t understand how people can say they couldn’t hear the latest episode of #Quirke. I just turned the volume down..

Phoebe find another place to live. And stay away from the creep. You have poor choice in men. #Quirke

The most awkward dinner party ever. Michael Gambon gleefully barging over everyone’s feelings. Byrne is brilliantly indignant. #Quirke

This episode is moving at a far more reasonable pace. Much better. Don’t have to have read the book for this one. #Quirke

No Phoebe. Just No. No No No. #Quirke

#Quirke!!! I say it’s a tad hot here…

Poor #Quirke :-((

Enjoyed that episode of #Quirke can’t wait for Sunday! They have to make more!!
— Karen Blower (@ByrneingCutie) June 5, 2014
Whew! Just one more to go. Stick with me!
Leslie White was very creepy but I found that the “Dr”/ photographer was also very creepy. Now day we think nothing of what he did but back then it was a nasty obscene thing. Malachi (Nick Dunning) was also very good this time and I was sad that he had to be kicked in the teeth so hard. Phoebe’s character was fleshed out as well and we see her growing.
As always Karen a bang up job tweeting for everyone. Hazzah.
Thank you Kim :) twas my pleasure

Thanks for tweeting Karen!
It sounds great.
We need Quirke to tell us about Dublin in the 1950s.
