Is justice blind?
And what if the defendant is a really annoying spoilt brat?
Can the truth prevail?
This week, script editors Josh and Mpona discuss the final episode of SHOWTRIAL series 1 on the BBC.
Starring Celine Buckens as Talitha, the privileged student on trial for the murder of her classmate, and Tracy Ifeachor as Cleo, her cool duty lawyer, this show looks in detail at the processes and fallibilities in the British criminal and legal systems.
Next time on The Denouement we will be watching THE SOCIETY on Netflix. -
What’s riskier, espionage or marriage?
This week, Mpona and Josh discuss MR & MRS SMITH on Prime Video.
Starring Donald Glover and Maya Erskine, this series is (kinda) based on the 2005 Brangelina movie. John and Jane Smith are two lonely strangers, placed in an arranged marriage and tasked with high-risk missions by a mysterious entity known only as “hihi”.
We will discuss how the final episode balances the whackiness of the spy world with a grounded relationsip story, the potential for a second series, and - of course - that beautiful New York brownstone.
Plus, we have thoughts on the casting of Paul Dano as "Hot Neighbor".
Next time on THE DENOUEMENT we will be watching Showtrial on BBC iPlayer.
