Dalziel and Pascoe (TV Series) Wrong Place, Wrong Time: Part 2 (2006) User Reviews

Dutch capping off a good story

[xmasdaybaby1966 · 7/10 · 12 August 2021]

Johanna ter Steegestill brings an earthy allure to show but the bright sparkle of filming somewhere new does seem to have disappeared.

The closing scenes with the arrests is pretty tame.

The sarcastic humour has long gone from this once gritty drama.

It is usually like a tribute act to its original story but the foreign story makes it feel even more subdued.

Part 1 was much better.

Fugitive Andy

[Johnny_West · 5/10 · 28 July 2022]

Andy gets released on bail thanks to Pascoe and the alluring Johana ter Steege working to find evidence of another killer. Immediately, Andy goes on the run, and leaves Pascoe & Johana with egg on their faces.

As the investigation continues, Andy is basically a homeless fugitive walking from place to place looking like a pathetic fat slob. He manages to intimidate the bartender that spiked his drink, and talks to Frida right before she is murdered. What did not make any sense was that the African government agent who killed Hendricks saw his boss go into the apartment, so why didn't he wait outside to kill him too?

This story was really pretty good, but it had a lot of boring parts, mostly watching Andy walking around in the same trenchcoat for days. How hard could he be to find? He really stands out, with his grimacing face, stout body, and tan trenchcoat. In every scene, all the other people were dressed for spring or summer, and Andy looked like a lighthouse keeper.
