Started it last night, but I fear Slow Horses has ruined this kind of thing now

Read the book once and didn’t really get it so probably won’t bother tbh

Got 3/4 the way through the book this year. Super dense inter-generational epic but don’t think I’ll bother with the Netflix adaptation.

Watched 1.5 episodes of Black Doves and I’m out. Kiera Knightly is a vacuous hole of a being and she can’t act for shit. The other guy with the face topiary is generic as fuck and I just couldn’t suspend my disbelief with either of the posh twats.

I persevered until the end. Saw the last one last night. It’s a shocker.

There’s a deer in there. I missed it though when I took the photo.

Finished this last night. Very silly in places, but liked Ben Wishaw doing the hitman with a heart and Keira Knightly carried off the spy bit quite well. But, my goodness plot holes a plenty and came with the standard series two set up montage at the end. 5/10.

It’s deffo ‘no brain required’ viewing, seemingly no police or cctv at all in London, you can just walk around slotting people at random, guns, rocket launchers, whatever…
I liked Ben Whishaw as well and Sarah Lancashire who only had a bit role really, I enjoyed it more than I should have done really considering how stupid it was lol

Thought Day Of The Jackal stuck the landing in its finale. Its been brilliant, one of the standout series of the year for me. The Director should take a bow for this shot

Yes I thought so too. Very entertaining all the way through, even if a bit ridiculous at times. Looking forward to a second series.

I think I must’ve missed the episode between him getting T boned by another vehicle and him stepping of the tram in Prague (?) :man_shrugging:t2:
