I thought Part 1 was rather average, but the second part is much better, it's actually very good. It is improved for the appearance of DCI Cameron, the legendary Bill Patterson. The production values have gone up a few notches, even the music is better. The episode has been less brash, great story development. It feels a little more linked to the book. Julie Walters is a little underused, somehow you don't even really notice her.
Still, Part two is very good, 8/10
