The Pact

It's a decent enough set-up and reasonably well acted, but when the big twists came they were pretty ridiculous really.

It's the usual BBC PC affair of course. Would they make a drama where some guys take an unpopular woman boss into the woods, take her trousers down and photograph her as a "prank" and then make the people who did that the sympathetic heart of the story? I think not.

And are we expected to feel sorry for the murderer and accept that he/she had no choice and that it was all OK because the victim was a nasty piece of work?

Ultimately you're left thinking "all they had to do was to admit what happened and they'd have been fine".

Worth a watch but not amazing.
