Angela Bleak

A slightly better episode but still not great. Why did Angela run to a house down the road while there was a pub directly opposite?

We keep seeing the dogs home. Unless this is just a plug for Battersea then obviously the German shepherd will play a role in saving her.

TV and Netflix just seems full of these shows where a woman is being suppressed and all men are evil (Liar springs to mind!).

It's all slow and predictable. I am sure Olivier will end up getting killed but, like Liar, they will decide to do a series 2 anyway.

ITV really does seem to be misfiring with its drama at the moment Hollington Drive, The Long Call, The Larkins and Angela Black have all been a bit of a disappointment but it is good to see something new despite the pandemic affecting filming.

I will struggle on with the second half of the series.

A cracking continuation.

Angela decides to go along with Ed, and his elaborate plan, she puts her faith in him, but the stakes are high, murder.

Twists and turns galore, I thought this third episode was tremendous, I loved it. It's gritty, it's fast paced, and it certainly delivers plenty of surprises.

More questions are asked than answered here, we are made to wonder if Olivier is actually the bad guy, if he's deliberately trying to set his wife up, with Ed's help, or if he's a violent man, trying to change his life around.

It looks terrific, it's a beautifully made show, so nicely put together, the music works so well.

I have read several reviews slating this show, I honestly don't know what some people want, for me, this was a thoroughly engaging watch, with a strong lead from Joanne Froggatt.

I'm hooked, 9/10.

Pulling teeth

This is so slow, predictable and painful, it's like pulling teeth. Joanne Froggatt is unfortunately becoming type cast. This is the last episode for me. Whatever happened to lighthearted escapism drama.
