Serena is such an interesting character, her and aunt Lydia are the most complex imo. Serena reminds me of a prominent anti feminist woman in the USA in about the 1960s/70s (cannot remember her name) but she campaigned basically for women to just be housewives , not work etc. After her children went to uni and grew up her husband left her and she was left basically penniless, had never worked so had no experience.
I would imagine lots of people who hark towards the past being better would actually be horrified to live there

Yes felt sorry for Serena and then was like why am I feeling sorry for her?
Does anyone know why there would be genetic problems with Nick & Roses baby? I think I must’ve lost concentration as there was a few bits that didn’t make sense to me in this ep

I have two theories… 1: Rose has been seen walking with a cane in previous episodes. Pretty sure in season 1 there were scenes of disabled people being rounded up. I don’t think Gilead has much tolerance for anything outside of the status quo.
2: could Nick and Rose be related???

Them maybe being siblings was my first thought but 1 makes more sense. Or maybe it’s still to come out.
I feel like we need another few episodes to tie this season up. Just 1 seems like it’ll be a bit rushed.

Agreed, there is way too much to fit into one episode. I think the final ep will probably set up some major cliffhangers to be resolved next season. It’s going to be a long wait 
I’ve just started the new season, I really did laugh in episode 1 when the police weren’t interested in June’s confession and Luke picked her up from the station and she was like, “I have to pay a fine. Online.”
Same, I almost wish in a way there was more of these less dramatic things, just getting re- used to life in a society that isn't living in the past with no technology etcI’ve just started the new season, I really did laugh in episode 1 when the police weren’t interested in June’s confession and Luke picked her up from the station and she was like, “I have to pay a fine.

Has anyone just watched tonight's UK episode?
Going to watch tomorrow
There’s quite a few of us who are following the US pace so feel free to chat awayGet back here ASAP once you do i'm bursting to talk to someone about it
Yes! Watching at UK pace because I don’t know where else to watch?!
Does anyone know what the younger girl poisoned herself and the other handmaid with (I’m shocking with names but assuming this makes sense?) I think I got distracted, do we know how/why she did it?
Her name is Esther, when she was 14 she was a wife and grew a plant called Nightshade I think it was. June took some to jezebels and poisoned a lot of commanders in an earlier series, it's possible wherever they're living now has a garden or greenhouse
UK pace, another good episode and not as slow as season 4, but more because of Serena, and I love commander Lawrence, he is so sarky. Aunt Lydia is great in her part too. I'm over June, even Luke is boring me, sometimes I think I hope they never get Hannah back 
Ohh didn’t realise she was raised in Scientology 
Brings a whole new meaning to the handmaids tail now !

Just seen the finale and all I'll say is I've got goose bumps!! Can't wait another year for the next season.
Sooooooo many emotions!! Great finale!
Honestly! I was actually close to tears.
As much as I moaned about the last season, I actually think I'll be beside myself when it finishes.
