8/10
Ripper street meets the Sweeny for plenty of laughs
11 June 2019
Matt Berry, Alan Armstrong, Paul Kaye Jill Halfpenny Sally Phillips and Keely Hawes some of the countries finest acting talent so what can go wrong? Well nothing really, set against the backdrop of the Victorian Eastend of London. Berry is in fine form as the no nonsense detective who gets results his way. Assisted by Freddie Fox and Susan Wokoma they set about solving the Murders brutal crimes with hilarious one liners. There is more than a passing resemblance to Charlie Brookers Touch of cloth and earlier classics like Police Squad. Overall this is well made well acted piece of costume drama comedy 8/10
