Magpie Murders (TV Series) Episode #1.2 (2022) User Reviews

The plot thickens.

[Sleepin_Dragon · 8/10 · 14 March 2022]

Crimes from the real world, and the written world are explored, two very different murders.

Very enjoyable, I liked the first episode, it perhaps took a little time to figure out the plot, and learn what was going on, this second episode somehow seemed to make a little bit more sense.

It is so unusual, so very different, but this format is definitely working in my humble opinion.

Fine acting throughout, Lesley Manville truly is a class act, 8/10.

The second episode make it clear that the two stories are somehow linked.

The characters from Atticus Pünd's investigations leap over to Susan Ryeland's world as she searches for Alan Conway's missing final chapter.

It helped that Pünd showed up in Susan's dream explaining that Conway could only have been murdered.

A good solid episode, some subtle clues as Anthony Horowitz plays about with the rules of crime drama.
