6/10
A confused muddle.
6 October 2018
I really want to enjoy this but by gosh it's hard work!

The brief "Previously on..." montage was not enough to remind me of all the disparate plotlines on MIHK series 2 a year ago.. The asumption that I can recall why and how John Smith's son died...nope.

What is right and wrong with it so far? Rufus Sewell, of course, is riveting and Jason O'Mara for once is allowed to use his own Irish accent..but even that sounds fake!...what is going on?

Well, it's summed up by one of the characters in a "pop" band in episode 1 saying to the audience " It's the first time we've played this one before." Eh? Just think about that. 2 drafts of the script just glued together?

On the plus side money has been well spent on effects and the brief action scenes, shame more wasn't spent on a script editor 6/10 so far.
