David Tennant’s vicar and Stanley Tucci’s death-row-not-at-all-like-Hannibal-Lecter psychologist are the tentpoles for this 4-part crime drama where the mild-mannered vicar just keeps on making the wrong decision, culminating in a VERY bizarre final episode. Some pretty wildly unrealistic police characters in this also. But it’s only a story and it was interesting enough. I’d call it a win for both writer Steven Moffatt, and for the UK’s 4-episode drama format.
