Killing Eve, anyone?

Season 2 has just finished here.
Anyone else been watching it?

Series 2 (interesting how the American term 'Season' is taking over) not yet shown in the UK, Mike - starts next Saturday I think. Series one suffered a little from being shown on BBC2 while the over-hyped Bodyguard was getting all the publicity running on BBC1 but it now seems to be getting the attention it deserves.

The stand-out performance for me was Jodie Comer. To my English ears, her Russian and French sounded very convincing and I assumed she was one or the other so it came as quite a shock to hear her speak with her natural Scouse accent!

I'm not a great TV fan but I'm really looking forward to it. To anyone coming new to it, I'd recommend watching Series 1 on catch-up if you can. It might take an episode or 2 to adapt to its quirky style but it's well worth it.

It was very good, just finished a binge watch. I enjoy the comedic aspect. Jody Cromer has very good career prospects, she is very talented.

Will definitely rent it soon. I've read too many good reviews to ignore it.

I was surprised to read that we saw it before the UK.
Don't google it, they give away too much in advance, and it'll spoil it for you.
Jody is indeed excellent in her part, and not hard on the eyes, either. :shhh:
She was also the new wife in another recent series "Doctor Foster"
Why rent it Paul, is your TV aerial broken?
Or are you into binge watching?

I don't own a TV, Mike, and haven't done so for the last 12 years. If I watch anything, it's either online or a DVD rental on the computer. :)

Killing Eve, for those of us in the colonies, is currently airing on BBC America. I have not seen it yet bu I just checked and I can binge watch from episode 1 of season 2 on video on demand, so based on what I have heard about it and Mike's inquiry, I plan on catching up.

"season" CURSES! 8)
I'd just looked on line to see if there was any mention of series 3, and evidently got caught out when I posted. :doh: :$ :$
I'm always yelling at the TV and radio on account of "twenty two away from nine" (is this a subtraction question, and if not, is that TO or AFTER 9?)
That's when I'm not abusing them for "That's coming up June one." :rant: :rant:
Alex, you'll be impressed that we got rid of the CRT unit and now watch one of the $5 LED screens from the tip; still needs an aerial though.
Killing is rarely this much fun, and, yes, the quirkiness is a bonus, Pete.
