In this criminal series, a perfect and happy family is killed by a trusted person. It is a series of challenges that reappear after the death of this family, as cracks appear on the surface of a new poetic society. This society may reflect daily paths and challenges through which all the mysterious things that reality proves.
I'm finding it an irresistible treat, but these things are essentially alchemical and unpredictable. Broadchurch with freckles - think of it like that if it'll help. Come on in; the Deadwater's lovely.
Daisy Coulam's script and the cast make these feel like real people, not cackling TV villains or victims, which makes it all the more disquieting and compelling.
The questions spilling over from the first episode of Deadwater Fell were too many to count. Most of all, I want to know how David Tennant is able to make me distrust his character deeply, when everything he says seems so mild and straightforward.
It hits the marks for this genre without ever proving immersive or even plausible... Even if we ignore the plot holes, it always felt as if the characters were serving the plot rather than vice versa.
It's a tightly written piece of television that sets up a number of fascinating characters and plot threads, anchored by terrific performances across the board.
The first of the four episodes of Deadwater Fell, written and created by Daisy Coulam (Humans, Grantchester) and directed by Lynsey Miller, is gripping and disturbing, with a strong cast, though some of the dialogue is a bit ponderous.
They spent so much time sourcing stupid little twinkling lights and aesthetically pleasing bits of hay to convince us that this was a happy-happy-happy family through the medium of a fake Boden barn dance, they left no time for writing the story.
