Um, Forgotten

 Warning this heavily spoils the current series of Unforgotten. 

You all know what this is, its a British cold case television show on ITV with Sanjeev Bhaksar playing a cop Sunny Khan with Nicola Walker as his boss. But she got killed off last season and now there is this unlikeable blond in it.

The case revolves around a woman's body discovered in a house undergoing renovations. There is the usual suspects, I can't be bothered to name them properly.

Tory MP 

Last name is Hume and has terminal cancer. Oh and as soon as they mention Tory in these sort of things you tend to think he did it. (Sort of,) Labour MPs get a free ride in these sort of shows. Anyway his wife is Hayley Mills. 

Ebellie

Co owner of a restaurant and a husband beater. It turns out by some trick of fate that Tory MP raped her mum in the 1960's. Her daughter is the one walled up in the house. And no she never faces any consequences for being a husband beater either. 

Smackhead cunt. 

A smackhead cunt living with his girlfriend, also a smackhead, in a squat. Essentially  fits up the Tory MP for the murder of what turns out to be his mum. 

Tiny Hat Tribe Jowski

A polish Jew, who worked as a social worker for the walled up girl, he moved to France and now works for Amazon. A thief and an upskirter. 

There are your protags and of course it gets much worse. It's still bearable, it was an excellent show at heart but it lays on the politics pretty heavily. Dim witted brexit jabs, check, cuts to funding, check and fuck witted "reparashons and slavery days bollocks" double check.

The theme still remains excellent though and you get to see Heads and Tails Derek Griffiths as a security guard. Shame they had to bring politics into this, as its given cancer to such a good show.
