Annika: Episode #1.5 (2021)
Storyline ok. Detail dodgy.
General storyline is ok and there are a lot of comic moments. However ther are quite a few times when you think, 'She wouldn't have done that', ' why didn't she....', ' that was a jump to a conclusion'.
Why a therapist would start a conversation sounding like therapy and then claim he couldn't continue the relationship with Annika because her daughter was still thinking it was therepy is just one example.
Annika can analyse other characters but not the relationship between herself and her daughter. This is a common trope in tv dramas but it's a bit extreme here.
Perhaps it should only be 5. But it is enjoyable enough compared to what else is available on a Saturday evening.
Lewis: Magnum Opus: Part 1 (2015)
Feels more like an episode of Midsommer Murders
The multiple murders and unusual methods are very reminiscent of the plots used in Midsommer Murders.
Turns out this is not a coincidence. Chris Murray the write of this Lewis (his only Lewis) also wrote 6 episodes of Midsommer. Perhaps it was written for Midsommer but converted to get a script on the cheap. Definitely feels that way.
Silent Witness: Redemption: Part 1 (2021)
Slightly stilted ?
Clearly done under socially distanced circumstances. But it starts a bit like the actors are nervous of getting back into character. Acting doesn't flow so well. Emilia Fox looking older (sorry just passing comment)
Good story line as usual.
Strike: Lethal White: Part 1 (2020)
Minor goof
When Robin records Billie Knight she holds the phone vertically (portrait) when she plays it back it is landscape
