Chloe

Something of a comment on our modern world but enthralling nonetheless. The complexity of the plotlines and the situations of the protagonists require a egree of concentration to follow the story, but well worth a watch.

I am surprised that so many reviewers didn't like this. It's a well-crafted story, revealing bits of the back story gradually. A bit of a slow burner but I didn't find it too tedious.

The outstanding performance of Erin Doherty persuaded me to give this 8 and not 7. She brilliantly dealt with the switching between daughter and social climber.

One annoying feature of the production was the large number of dark shots. I don't usually comment on such things. Perhaps it was meant to reflect the murkiness of the story.

And one curious thing - perhaps someone could enlighten me. Elliot and Richard are listed on here as appearing as teenage characters in four episodes. I'm sure I didn't fall asleep but I didn't see them, unless it was a momentary appearance in a non-speaking role.

But I'm pleased to have watched it and would recommend it.

I don't know what people want. The pacing is just right. The dialogue is often very witty. The casting is perfect. The photography and direction are great.

It is a BBC Three series, really. The main character is a duplicitous b****, but fascinating nonetheless. I'm only on episode four but unless the ending is really that bad, I'll probably award it seven out of ten.

Just one thing - surely Elliot must have a housekeeper. So where is she?

So ignore it completely. Becky gets a call from an estranged friend and then finds out that friend has passed away. Puzzled by the call she decides to investigate a little further but becomes entangled in the same web that may have been the demise of "Chloe"

Erin Doherty carries this mini series very well. I don't know why some reviewers complain about the ending. I found it satisfying. Because the show is strange and with possibly a couple vague plot holes. I give a strong 7.
