Is someone emulating the killing style of Calvin Dunn, or is there a copycat killer, Jack and Nikki are on the case, they need the help of Doctor Charles Beck, the pathologist on Dunn's case.
Well, they certainly got this one absolutely spot on, after a disappointing series 26, series 27 opens with an absolute belter. They absolutely nailed this one, felt like a throwback to years gone by, less focus on the politics, more focus on the story.
The opening gave me chills, it actually put me in mind of Ken Stott's Messiah series, way darker than it has been, it really did work, there's definitely been a buzz surrounding this.
I don't remember there being a Calvin Dunn case previously, so I can only assume the character is now, but such was the quality of this episode, I felt as though I knew the case.
Wonderful to see Josette Simon back on the show, and that was a very memorable episode, she's great here, such a presence.
John Hannah, awesome, no more needs to be said, what an actor.
Superbly produced, terrifically acted, and best of all, the writing. Please let the rest of this series be like this.
10/10.
