I call horsey BS on Netflix’s “The Nest”

[AllTheCarrots]

No spoilers, because I’m only four minutes in. But I’m already yelling at the screen.

Scene 1: It looks like it’s morning. A pensive Jude Law gazes out the window and makes a phone call.

Scene 2: It’s morning, maybe later on. He gently wakes his wife(?), who seems to have had a long, relaxing sleep. She stretches leisurely and reaches for the cup of coffee he’s brought for her to drink in bed as she slowly wakes up.

Scene 3: The wife enters the barn and starts the morning feed.

WAIT — WHAT!?!?!

What horsewoman on this planet has time to sleep in, sip coffee in bed and eventually make it down to the barn around, what? Maybe 11:00 at this point? I have no idea who these people in the story are, but I’m already calling shenanigans.

[BrownDerby]

Richmond’s superb acting makes it all worthwhile.

Maybe its very early morning…when she gets the coffee? lol

[Xanthoria]

In the UK, specifically in Surrey where they buy the farm, it gets light at 4.45 am in June. Disclaimer: I have only watched the trailer, and was knee deep in a gin and tonic at the time, so no idea if that scene is set in the UK…

Maybe her horses are on a schedule that permits a leisurely start to the morning?
Maybe evening feeding takes place at 11P?

& Now I have to check out the series.
Because: Horses!

I frequently feed at 10:30 AM.

🤷 I feed when I feed. Mine are out on grass so there’s never any kicking or nonsense. Sometimes 6, usually 8, sometimes 10.

My dear husband always used to bring me tea in bed when he got up before I did. Then I’d go out and feed.

[Djones]

Our horses are out 24/7. Weekends we enjoy coffee and bird watching time before feeding the horses around 930 or 10.

A good movie to remind one to dig deep holes…

I feed when I fee

Same. Work days present a schedule, generally, but just last week they got dinner at about 130am because of a death scene I had to work. Generally on Sundays they get fed late in the morning because Saturday is my night to spend with the SO and I sleep in.

[cattywampus]

So jealous. I always want to sleep in in Sundays, but the dogs insist on peeing early, and once the horses see me emerge, they start in with the food time noises, the guilt kicks in, and I tromp off to the barn…

Sundays, I used to go feed, (Carharts over jammies) then make my husband a cup of tea and go back to bed

[Bristol_Bay]

Forget the horses.

Who drinks coffee with a full bladder?

[atr]

Well that probably had her out of bed briefly an hour earlier…
