It is hard to believe that for all of the different formats, and all of the excellent cinematography that we've seen, this is only the second episode in black and white.
I love black and white, and this is gorgeous.
It is also quite dark. Everything that seems to be a comedy element (The protagonist's family, the comedy assassins) is so overwhelmed by the atmosphere, that they are not so much funny as strange. I think that one of the things that they have been discovering as the show evolves is that they don't really need to be funny anymore. I like that.
The post-climax of this episode refers to the Thames Barrier, which was sort of a plot point in GLC. I have a feeling that this was not done on purpose, but it's nice to have a little bit of continuity.
