Death Lego

One could write an essay on the whole show, and in particular this original conclusion. This was the end of the series as whole. Speculation and hope for a continuation as been going on for quite a number of years now. A workable idea, a script and the main cast members diaries, has held back anything being able to go into production until relatively recently. Many had just the same response as you. Using the very same word, anticlimactic. The build up with this H business kinda worked as a foil to this bombshell drop they were trying to do. The explanation to the reality, that they were investigating a collapsing tower of cards. That had actually already split into disparate entities, after Tony Gates took out the head guy in series 1. Then he was executed in the beginning of series 2. All of this was dampened by the desire to have a narratively palatable reveal, of a single figure, believed to be a creditable top villain. When actually, it was a full indictment of the police service as a corrupt whole. This is not a favourable conclusion for a police show, and an audience wanting to finally see justice. There is another layer to the expectation subversion, that as an international audience member, you will not be aware of. The character Marcus Thurwell was intentionally cast with a very prominent actor who is very well known to the public here. James Nesbitt has worked in television for the best part of 40 years. For most of that, he as had a lead role in a number of projects. Simply seeing his face, in pictures only, would have meant something to audiences. In the form of expectations, that he would eventually show up on screen. But he never did once. This was done very deliberately to keep the audience off kilter. But actually, it could be heavily argued. That this deception, delivered by breaking established conventions of casting norms within the industry. Was slightly counterproductive to bringing the whole audience along with you. I think elements of the show play out better in rewatches. Rather than in a first time viewing. When all you really want is to see, is who the top guy is. I can't wait for series 7.
