‘Hard Sun’ Episode 2: 8 Questions We Have Following The Latest Instalment<\/b>
\nFirst things first: We know that the whole of \u2018Hard Sun\u2019 series one is currently on iPlayer.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s just that, sometimes, watching television the traditional way can be pretty fun, so we\u2019re taking it slow and rationing the episodes to one a week.<\/p>\n

And quite frankly, there\u2019s so much going on that need a lay down as the \u2018Hard Sun\u2019 credits roll.<\/p>\n

Episode two was no different to the series opener, with murders, reveals and secrets aplenty. And with four episodes of \u2018Hard Sun\u2019 still to watch, there\u2019s no telling how things will end.<\/p>\n

Here are eight questions we have after the second instalment…<\/p>\n

1. How did Hicks and Renko decide to bury the hatchet?<\/p>\n

Episode one ended with Agyness Deyn\u2019s character beating up her boss and the opening scenes of episode two then saw her leak the Hard Sun documents to a news organisation, while Hicks and his wife were captured.<\/p>\n

When the action then fast-forwarded four weeks, it was revealed the pair had patched up their differences and started working together again. How did the conversation about it all go down?<\/p>\n

2. How many more Hard Sun \u201ctruther\u201d murders will there be?<\/p>\n

Hicks is certain that there will be more criminals like the one who dominated episode two, but just how many will take place? Surely they can\u2019t continue at this rate?<\/p>\n

3. When is Hicks\u2019 baby due?<\/p>\n

We know this might seem slightly besides the point, but it\u2019s easy to forget that the DCI and his wife, Simone, have a new son or daughter coming, what with all the \u201cOh-my-God-the-end-of-the-world-is-coming!\u201d drama.<\/p>\n

A new baby will be a very big deal – especially as the world is going to end in five years – and becoming a dad again could change Hicks\u2019 outlook on the world.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0When will his wife find out about the affair?<\/p>\n

Mari Butler\u2019s young son has now seen Hicks emerging from his mum\u2019s bedroom and at this point, we\u2019re pretty sure MI5 know about Hicks\u2019 extramarital activities too. All of this – plus the fact secrets never stay secret in TV Land – suggest Simone will find out the truth at some point soon.<\/p>\n

5. When will Renko hear Daniel\u2019s message?<\/p>\n

She clearly has other things on her mind at the moment, but Renko\u2019s son is spot on with his guess that officials are lying about Hard Sun. His mental health is clearly suffering and the mystery visit from MI5 probably won\u2019t do much to quell his fears. Which brings us to\u2026<\/p>\n

We all saw what nearly happened to Hicks\u2019 pregnant wife, so it\u2019s unlikely Daniel would be shown any mercy. The episode closed with the mystery woman<\/a> from MI5 arriving at the facility he lives in. Will she simply have questions to ask, or could her arrival signal that something far worse is set to take place?<\/p>\n

7. What evidence did Renko receive?<\/p>\n

Her deal with the police – agreeing to get Hicks for Alex Butler\u2019s murder in order to keep her son out of prison – was revealed, but she made little ground in her secret investigation. That is until the last few minutes, when evidence was sent through to her phone. Hopefully we won\u2019t have to wait too long to find out what it is.<\/p>\n

8. How is Renko always wearing a hoodie for work when everyone else looks so smart?<\/p>\n

No judgement here, Those hoodies look seriously cosy. But with Hicks always sporting a suit and their colleagues looking similarly smart, how does Renko get away with her stylish, sport-luxe look? No, it\u2019s not exactly a pressing issue, but a question we\u2019re asking all the same.
