Aidan Smith's TV week: Into the murky, murderous depths again, but thankfully not in a submarine
BBC1’s new Sunday nighter Showtrial is billed “from the makers of Vigil” and I’m thinking, oh no, they wouldn’t, would they? Set another drama in a submarine? I’m not sure I could take the claustrophobia, even if the dark labyrinths were made of balsa wood held together with Blue Peter’s sticky-back plastic. So anyway about halfway through the first episode one guy says to another about an accomplice’s ferreting abilities that he could “find a leak in a nuclear sub” - but I’m assuming this is the producers’ little joke and maybe the start of a running gag for all future shows.
