Unforgettable - the first sighting of Lecter is brilliantly staged - nothing happens, but sends shivers down my spine

Enjoyed it - particularly (spoiler alert!) the ending!

Just watched it for the second time - it's lost none of its punch - and charm! - over twelve years!

Though my wife Adele and I have only cottoned on to "The Repair Shop" in this last month or so, we are not surprised to find that it has been running since 2017 and now into seventy-odd episodes. There is obviously a discerning audience, and no wonder - it is an absolute joy!

I thought that this was an astonishing product, quite different from any other TV drama which I have experienced. We have our individual awareness of the genocides which have taken place over the years but, however tragic, they tend to remain remote to many of us. Not here - we share deeply with the emotional experiences of those previously involved, directly or subsequently, with what happened in Rwanda. Though the horror is evident,it is communicated in an almost beautifully sympathetic way; I was particularly impressed with the use of drawings/almost dream sequences. I also loved the music/song used in the opening credits. How sorry particularly I felt for Kate as the truth unfolded - her range of reaction and expression was remarkable. Well done to all involved; particularly Hugo Blick - a tour de force! .
