The Fight to the Death
25 December 2019
Who goes bear. Lyra needs to use her cunning to trick Iofur Ragnison the brutal warrior bear. It sets up a fight between Iofur and Iorek Byrnison for the crown.

It is a big fight scene but Lyra is placed in front of the screen so the little ones are not too frightened with the bear brutality.

Mrs Coulter shows her brutality as strangles that zombie nurse. Losing her daemon means she has lost her intelligence until Mrs Coulter realises the horror of what she is doing.

With Lyra, Lord Asriel and Lee Scoresby. You sense that everything is being set up for the finale.

However the Will Parry story is already being set up for the second series. Boreal has already set in motion a chain of deadly events.

The big stand out was the CGI bear fight but I felt that really this is a series that could had been wrapped up in six episodes.
