The Enemy Within. Tom Prager handles the distressing upsurge in racism. It appears that an Equal Rights activist (Phaldut Sharma) has called for the murder of an innocent man, but we pretty much straight away know he's been deep faked - something which the Team should have guessed as it's happened before (the 'Ndrangheta episode). Jack's started in a new boxing gym, but unfortunately it's peopled by 'Keep our country great' racist thugs. Then more AI causes an attack on the investigating DI Selin Hizli but it's her teacher husband who is killed. Turns out this all originated from a server in Cyprus that's been used by Russians influencing elections.
They catch the culprit for this murder but not the first, nor the gang that assaults Jack. And in that audacious ending - Jack himself has been deep faked - I was thinking 'What? Is there a Part 3??'
Gerard Kearns is the DC who hits on Kit but turns out to be something of a confused person himself. Nikolaos Brahimllari is the friendly one in the gym. George Somner, Chris Reilly, Tom McCall.
Oh, small point. If a lovely neighbour came round with flowers and food when you moved in, don't you think you'd introduce yourselves?
I liked 'There are more canals in Birmingham than in Venice' and where that line of thought leads. A thought provided by the burned out restaurateur who invites them all over for a meal (Bhasker Patel).
The cinematography in this series has gone a bit Netflixy i.e. dark and fuzzy.
