TV Review - Killing Eve

Starring Jodie Cormer, Sandra Oh, Fiona Shaw

9:15 PM Saturday BBC1

Picking up seconds after the conclusion of the first series the opening episode saw both main characters Oh's Eve and Cormer's Villanelle at low points. Oh gives a masterclass in emotional confusion as she stumbles through Paris after stabbing Villanelle in the stomach. along the way there is a humorous encounter as Eve tries to get back to London. Meanwhile Villanelle stumbles around seeking treatment for her wound ending in a hospital wearing a boy's superhero pyjamas! This opening episode was more of a set up of what is to come though very much enlivened by some sparkling dialogue. The forthcoming episodes should be some of the most unique viewing experiences of recent years.
