Well, Jekyll finished on Saturday, and what a cracking series its been. The central premise of Dr Tom Jackman managing an uneasy truce and living arrangement with his alter-ego was a great hook, and the various mysteries that followed through the series were captivating. Stephen Moffat’s writing shone as usual, with brilliant one-liners, and possibly the only time I’ve actually liked the Crazy Frog ringtone.
I’ve never really seen James Nesbitt in anything other than a Yellow Pages advert before, but he was great in this. Successfully taking Mr Hyde beyond “the monster” everyone associates the character with.
Its out on DVD today. I’ll probably be nabbing it myself and can’t recommend it highly enough.
