Broadchurch Finale: 12 Questions That Still Need Answering

1. Where To Next?

Obviously the news that Broadchurch would be returning wasn't that much of a shock to anyone who had seen the rumours of a third season, but to see it confirmed was still a good thing for fans. Now, admittedly a lot of fans were put off by the dramatic shift in tone and pace from the first season, but the finale still pulled in good numbers and a generally positive critical response, so there's enough goodwill to keep the hype machine turning for the third season. The question now - which was deliciously posed at the end of the finale - is where next? Will Hardy take up a new job elsewhere? Will Ellie (the other confirmed returning character) go with him? Or is it all back to Broadchurch to investigate a new case (possibly Joe's return and a Who Shot Mr Burns-style scenario where everyone's implicated in his death)? Either way, it's going to be intriguing. Were you satisfied with the end of Broadchurch season two? Did you spot any other issues that weren't addressed?
