Featured review

9/10

More intense, more twisted, wonderful.

Ruth sets about turning the lives of Bobbo and Mary Fisher upside down, she weaves a complex plan, first off by setting up The Vista Rose agency, and secondly by influencing someone who holds Bobbo's fate in their hands.

Just excellent once again, the tone of the whole thing really has changed, it's all become a little harder edged, lots of the niceties have gone, it's become more twisted, more twisted, perhaps even a little more absurd, in a good way that is.

Is it possible to feel perhaps a little bit sorry for Mary Fisher?

Bernard Hepton is an absolute joy to watch here as the discipline loving Judge, hes perhaps the most perceptive character so far, but his acting is first rate, I love his scenes with Wallace. Wallace, once again is fabulous.

I am hooked, 9/10.
