Perhaps the greatest success of BBC One’s Wallander as a series is that, despite its lugubrious lead, it’s not actually a depressing drama to watch.
Primeval has been on a strong run of late, and this episode is the best of the bunch.
Amid the dearth of interesting female detectives onscreen in the post-Prime Suspect era, Olivia Williams’ portrayal of DS Charlie Zailer is refreshing and compelling.
The penultimate episode of Bedlam’s second series goes ever so slightly deeper than the ones that preceded it, with issues of child abuse, murder, family and mystery dominating.
Blimey. When we said last week that we thought things were going to get a lot darker, we didn’t think it’d happen so fast, or so brutally.
Troughton, Hines and Padbury present a united front of snarky but genuine friendship that is impossible to dislike.
After last week’s better-than-average adventure down on a nuclear submarine, Primeval ventures out of its comfort zone once again, as Matt finds himself travelling back to Victorian London to track down a loose raptor.
So, here we go, into the fourth year. We’ve had psycho killers, demi-gods, religious nutters, mad kings… What do we face now?
I would like to make it publicly known that I am now in love with Martha Costello (Maxine Peake), the lead character from tense, tense legal drama Silk.
