Too Close fans left fuming as ITV FREEZES during dramatic finale as viewers praise harrowing series

TOO Close fans were left fuming after ITV FROZE during the dramatic finale as viewers praise harrowing series.

Viewers flocked to Twitter to vent after they "missed a crucial chunk" of the psychological crime drama.

As the three-part series starring Emily Watson concluded, fans finally found out what led to the horrific events that viewers saw in episode one.

However, the finale was interrupted as fans claimed that ITV froze during the hour long episode.

One annoyed viewer posted: "What the hell did you just skip a whole chunk of Too Close after the screen freeze?!?"

Another raged: "They missed out the important court scene, how ridiculous."

A third posted: "So after watching for three nights...you miss a whole important chunk of Too Close. What the actual?!"

Another fumed: "How is it possible for one of the biggest TV production companies to freeze a prime time slot?"

While one tweeted: "I invested three hours into this...how could you?"

Despite the technical glitch running some fans viewing pleasure, others were impressed by the dramatic twist.

Viewers were full of praise for the ITV drama and Denise Gough's performance as Connie.

Several fans raced to social media to commend the drama for tackling "real mental health issues".

One fan posted: "Bawling my eyes out, amazing series. Wasn't what I was expecting but it didn't need a big twist. Mental health needs talking about, series should open the conversation."

Another fan shared: "Absolutely best drama I've seen in ages. Addressing real mental health issues and the portrayal of the characters was first class. Well done."

A third agreed: "Wow! Great show and sensitive mental health issues portrayed really well."

In tonight's episode, viewers got to see the real extent of Connie's mental health issues and what led her to driving off the bridge.

The series focuses on forensic psychiatrist Dr Emma Robertson and her dangerous relationship with her patient Connie Mortensen, a woman accused of a terrible crime she has no memory of ever committing. 

Connie is a wife and mother suffering from dissociative amnesia — or at least seems to be.

It is up to Emma to decide whether Connie can stand trial for her sins.

Dr Robertson is tasked with investigating the truth surrounding Connie’s relationship with her best friend, Ness — a relationship that somehow caused Connie to attempt to murder a loved one.

The twisted tale depicts Connie as a masterful manipulator, unearthing Emma's past traumas and pains.

The cast of Too Close featured a number of big names, including Academy Award nominee Emily Watson as Dr Emma Robertson and two-time Olivier award-winner Denise Gough as Connie.
