Luther
« on: May 19, 2010, 11:56:50 AM »
Is anyone else watching this on BBC?  I am developing quite the crush on Idris Elba.

And I really enjoy Ruth Wilson.  She plays a sociopath, which is quite a change from her role as Jane Eyre.

What do you think of the pretty grim stories so far?

I haven't seen it, but will keep a look out! I love Ruth Wilson. She was fabulous in that Stephen Poliakoff production, too.

I'm liking it. At first, I wasn't sure about the whole "still in love with the ex wife" thing, but they're working it.

I think that Luther and his Ex (Indira Varma) have great chemistry, which helps keep the story from falling too far into a cliche. 

This show has a lot of familiar faces, including Paul McGann who was the "I" in "Withnail & I."

My hubby and I both love the show! The story lines keep us on the edge of our seats, so to speak!  I'm sooo with you on Idris Elba.  He's hot! ;)

Glad to know that taping this has been a good decision, though we don't yet have time to watch it.

Ruth Wilson seems everywhere these days! And I'd wondered where Indira Varma went. Now I know.
