If you have followed Faith in the previous series, you will be wanting to know where this final one is going. You hope that she will find happiness and everything in the garden will be rosy. Well, you are going to be disappointed.
The first episode makes you wonder what has happened since the last series as this is a very slow burner and extremely frustrating for the viewer. So much so that you almost want to switch off. The case that Faith has taken on, the boy with the brain tumour appears, frankly, a mere excuse of a storyline so that Faith has a reason to go to London. This little excursion simply allows Faith to bring her history into the storyline. This also drops a clanger when her husband questions her business partner about her whereabouts in London and then gives chapter and verse as to where she was and at what times. There is no question as to how Ewan knew this, he had activated the tracking on her phone and knew her every move, so this little annoyance was never discovered.
At last Steve and Faith get together and we are hoping this is going to be Faith's happy ever after. The best thing is that her rotten, stalking scummy little ex gets killed, but by then, the viewer is already believing that Steve is also dead. Sadly for us and Faith, this turns out to be true. No happy ending, Faith leaves but she will always have a piece of Steve as she is pregnant. Great acting by Eve Myles, makes this your better than average drama, certainly the first two series anyway.
