This episode didn’t have the drama I hoped it would, until the last two minutes. This episode was mostly about Billie’s court case. Ryan O’Kane played the role of the ridiculously bad solicitor rather convincingly, however what I liked most was Gus’ role in the subplot. For the first time Gus shows some ironic competency with the law or rather
Read moreI felt that this episode is a bit of a filler to lead into the remaining two episodes. My reasons for this are due to the episode revolving around Jack’s funeral, the arrival of Layla, the return of Gus, the media catching on to Billie’s appearance in the Norton family and Bruno’s discovery of where Billie is. All of these
Read moreIn this episode a huge jigsaw puzzle piece in the mystery was revealed. We finally got to see more of Claudia in this episode, which I have called for in my previous reviews due to Furness’ acting prowess. I found it interesting that Hyde & Claire chose to meet her at a cemetery to talk about Jackie, even more so
Read moreYesterday I managed to make lots of progress by going to my town library to work, as it was quiet and I had no distractions. I managed to finish Lucas’ letter and write Gwen’s letter. Gwen’s letter was the easiest to write (so far) as she is one of the characters I know the most. Gwen is the oldest girl
Read moreI feel like this season is supposed to be split into two halves and that this episode is the start of the second half. This episode explored the aftermath of Malik’s killing. The office celebrates their apparent victory and Hyde & Claire have been told to take time off. Claire’s further exploration on the case based on her gut instinct
Read moreI haven’t made much progress over the last five days, this is due to the fact that I work full-time and have to commute three hours a day to get to and from work, so at the end of each day, I’m too tired to make any progress. Due to my current working situation, the way that the story of
Read moreFor a penultimate episode, I felt this episode was done rather well. Again we are given more of an insight into Lily’s new job and the toll that it’s taking on her. This episode shows the realities of working long hours and how a person’s social life can suffer as a result, which I think is something we can all
Read moreThis episode dealt with all kinds of ramifications. I’m not going to complain about the use of in media res, as I’ve done this enough, that being said I found it hilarious that it focused on Lily being stuck in the closet by a coat hanger and her hair. The morning after awkwardness was played out realistically, especially with Simone
Read moreI delivered my verdict on this episode on Twitter–brilliant and absolutely heart shattering. Ajax has exiled himself from his family after being told that Hugh is his father. I felt that the ramifications of this revelation weren’t explored fully, it almost felt brushed off and everyone moved on too quickly, with the biggest ramification being public humiliation. Considering the build
Read moreThis episode was the one all the viewers had been waiting for–Ajax finally finds out that Hugh is his father. While the outcome of the truth coming out prior than planned was cliche and inevitable, I did love the build up as it was authentic. The whole family find out ultimately because of Hugh as he decides to tell his
