Maybe the best episode yet
This might be my favourite episode so far. After the large canvas drama of the last two, this is so contained, focused and taut. The tension never lets up and it is genuinely moving at the end too.
It's also brilliant to see an apparently peripheral character Kleya thrown into centre stage, given a backstory and perhaps the most difficult 'mission' to complete. Elizabeth Dulau rises to the challenge brilliantly, as does her character.
In the context of the show as a whole, this episode shows the confidence of the creators that they can do 'small' as well as they can do 'big' and carry on surprising you even at this late stage.
