Another case for the fab four.
Sleepin_Dragon21 October 2018
Another quality case for the fab four, I think it's fair to say they're acting more like amateur detectives in this one, unlike previously where they used logic to crack the code. Anna Maxwell Martin's character had previously grabbed most or the limelight, here that focus seems a bit more spread out, with Jean getting more screen time. The story is very, very clever, with some surprising elements. The attempted running over was well staged. It's smart, well made, cleverly crafted, plus it has a sense of urgency. 8/10

Some Have Cases Dumped Upon Them
Hitchcoc14 July 2017
The military phrase is "band of brothers." Among the Bletchley group there is a sisterhood, so when one of their former associates is in jail for murder, they begin to form around her. The problem is that she does not want their help (they worked together but were not close) and refuses to defend herself. This silence only drives them on as they try to find out what is going on. It turns out she was arrested for killing a former lover who worked with them on codes in the day. It is not long before two and two are beginning to be put together and there is a young woman who becomes critical to their case. She is at the center. There is also a sinister man who seems to be on the scene frequently.
