Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe name Villanelle uses as her interrogatory with her help hotline (Dozen Incorporated), "Cher Horowitz" is the character Cher's (played by Alicia Silverstone) full name from Clueless (1995). Her distress code was that she "failed her driving test" - which was an obstacle for Cher in the movie. This is a callback to how she repeatedly mentioned she liked watching movies in series one.
- GoofsEve calls a number to get copies of photos of the dead boy in the hospital. The phone screen shows the title GCHQ as the number she is dialing. GCHQ is a signal intercept organisation and would have no reason to hold photos of a killing.

Featured review
Starting to rely on lazy cliche and movie luck
The major draw to this programme is the baddie and the chemistry. If you take them away and replace them with cliche and cheesey movie luck then you are left with something totally different.
The reliance on 'the injury' to explain her sudden change is not great. A shadow of her normal character self. But all okay because of 'the injury'. Lazy writing.
The man that helps her is some painful writing. Feeling like we are slipping towards the standard of all the other boring stuff on TV. No imagination. No creativity. No intelligence. Just your worn out cliche change of character from good to sinister.
Then the magic timing at the end to help ensure the story moves along. This sort of lazy writing really irritates me.
And what are we left with? Another female assassin to catch. Really!? Zzzzz...
I'm not sure who is in control of this show now but the signs of a slip in quality are showing. Pity.
