We very much enjoyed watching over the last three evenings "The Salisbury Poisonings" on BBC1. I felt they got it just right, staying with the sad and painful moments but not in an oversentimental way. Very good acting, especially Anne-Marie Duff (left) as the Wiltshire Public Heath boss. Lovely resolution at the end as she and her family enjoy a meal together, intercut with Rafe Spall, playing the poisoned sergeant, and his family, also enjoying a meal. What could hve been overwhelming or overdone turned out moving and uplifting.
I also followed the third "Killing Eve" series that finished recently (not Fr Andy's cup of tea!).. But there I found my interest waning. It seemed they were sort of recycling not so kuch individual stories or themes but rather the whole approach if you like. The very things that struck you at the beginning were now getting a little bit passe. Even Jodie Comer (right) playing VIllanelle.
