London Kills (TV Series) Blood (2022) User Reviews

Flawed, but does have an exciting scene.

[Sleepin_Dragon · 6/10 · 28 December 2022]

Billie links the death of her father, to the recent death of a locksmith. Bradford manages to convince Vivienne to do the right thing, and go after a crooked colleague.

I think some of the reveals were a little tenuous, a little overly coincidental, some of what's revealed here is a little more EastEnders than crime drama. I'm not sure I bought into the big reveal from the end of the previous episode, that was lazy writing.

I found this episode a little harder to connect with than the first two, it just seems to be rambling on a bit, not focused on one core story, but jumping about a little bit.

I really did enjoy the ending, it was absorbing, well acted, and quite tense, it's the first time this series that the show has felt a bit more exciting.

Some excitement, but some of the build up is a bit silly.

6/10.

A big reveal at the end of the second episode was that DCS Jack Mulgrew is Vivienne Cole's ex husband.

She just knows that Mulgrew is crooked. DS Cole needs to lure him to open up.

Meanwhile when a dead body of a locksmith is found. It becomes personal for DC Billie Fitzgerald.

The dead man was a key witness at a trial over the killer of his father.

Kit Hughes has served his sentence and released from prison. He claims to have been reformed and has a strong alibi.

Billie Fitzgerald is shocked that Kit has befriended her mother, who seems to have accepted that Kit has truly repented.

Billie's mother was really naive. It was a good episode highlighting Billie's personal trauma. There was a nice twist but I was not sure if I should groan about the reveal of the probation officer.
