Waiting here

The idea that something may be patiently waiting for you to visit a physical location and will take advantage of your presence when you do is an unnerving one and should take more than a short TV play to fully exploit. But The Witch's Bottle is so taut and economical that you don't feel you've missed out on anything. Georgina Kean is exceptional in the possession scene, it could have torn the atmosphere to pieces, but instead adds a layer to everything else. Jasper Jacob is more CFF 1955 than Thames 1975, but is clearly just doing what has been requested of him. And it all ends with a wonderful question mark.
