A couple of Doctor Who alumni get together for The Devil's Hour, a precognitive mystery starring Jessica Raine and Peter Capaldi (Nikesh Patel also appeared in Doctor Who recently, I guess this must be standard for a Sue Vertue production, those who know, know). Raine plays a social worker who gets flashes of the future, but even after the future is changed, she still "remembers" things wrong. She also has a child who is an emotional blank and who sees things that aren't there. The structure is also a kind of flashback, since the 6 episodes are remembrances during the interrogation of a strange serial killer (Capaldi) who seems to be acting on similar precognitive information. The explanation for all this will turn out to be more in the realm of science-fiction (perhaps metaphysics) than in the "psychic" realm, so while I was ahead of the characters in some ways, I was still absorbed in the details I couldn't quite explain and they all fit quite nicely. While it seemed to be barrelling towards a conclusion, The Devil's Hour was apparently designed as a trilogy, and I for one will be very interested in seeing where this dark, loopy tale goes. Great acting, strong atmosphere, and a complex, thoughtful story.
