Episode #6.5

Wow! This episode is a total belter. On the edge of my seat and you will be too!

Lots of details, names and links to series 1&3 so really listen and I would recommend watching more than once!

This episode is even better than the previous one. The thrill was top notch and the ending... Mother of God! Bring the best one nowww.

Pilkington is watched closely by AC12 and Fleming.

There is strong tension and suspense developed by scenes involving Davidson, Pilkington, and Fleming. This makes you want to find out what happens next. Also, certain characters are reintroduced to increase the level of antagonism and oppression towards the main protagonists. All of the above comes with certain plot contrivances that help bring about the most dramatic moments, but if you can suspend the disbelief it makes for great entertainment.

The overarching plot relating to the larger conspiracy comes into sharp focus in this one and the writer links this very well to the case of Gail Vella and the involvement of Davidson.

Themes of police corruption are laid on thick as always, adding the Lawrence case to other real life inspirations of high profile cases like Yewtree, but they are important topics to be tackled by the writer so credit to him for doing so. Hopefully viewers can tell fact from fiction an do their own research on real life events.

Kelly McDonald is on good form again, particularly with her expressions and mannerisms. She only has to look at people in certain ways and it says everything you need to know.

For me it's a an 8.5/10, but I round upwards.

This season is fantastic!!! Watching in the US and it's so hard to wait a week between episodes!! Episodes 4 and 5 have been among the best in the entire series!!

Talk about intense, this rollercoaster series just went up another notch, how on Earth have they maintained this standard for a three episode run, this once again, was exceptional.

The face from the past, that was unexpected, and proved to be an irresistible twist, and by the end of the episode I was absolutely exhausted, fatigued mentally and physically, absolutely outrageous drama, you think you can breathe easily, and then you're given...

....That ending, when I thought it couldn't get any more intense, any more dramatic, they give us THAT ending, my heart was in my mouth.

Outrageous, everything is falling apart. 10/10.
