A new criminal drama on BBC One is yet to be revived for the second installment though it is high time for the developers to do this with the first and so far the latest debut being held last autumn. This fall is soon to come and we have no confirmation. It doesn’t map to how the real world actually works. That’s we should expect it with much patience.
Brief review
The series under the title “From Darkness” turns to be narrative of a female former police officer and the skeletons in her closet.
The production of the story lies fully on BBC Drama North. It comes to be developed by such executives as Hilary Martin and Oliver Kent.
By the genre, it is a crime drama with the speckles of a psychological thriller. Thus, keep away your small children from TV screens while watching it. The broadcast is held, by the way, on BBC One, the leading channel in the United Kingdom.
The story comes to be penned by Katie Baxendalewhile the directorial issues come to be resolved brilliantly by Dominic Leclerc.
The acting cast includes Anne-Marie Duff performing the lead role, and also such actors and actresses as Johnny Harris, Richard Rankin, Caroline Lee Johnson, Luke Newberry and Leanne Best.
The first season was held in the previous year. So far it is reckoned to be the latest one. The amount of episodes equals four with the duration of each one comprising the entire hour. So, it is a kind of a miniseries like Sherlock.
What is the storyline?
Claire Church is the main heroine which life turns to be portrayed here. She used to work at a police department as an investigator.
The events start unfolding when four bodies from cases Church have not resolved through applying much effort have surfaced. Thus, she is again on the deal to find the truth though unwilling to be pulled back into the world she has tried so desperately to forget.
Ratings and reviews
The general opinion towards the worthiness of the project is a controversial one with some holding the point-of-view that the series is tiring and that it lacks drama in the narrative though being defined as drama when it comes down to the determining the genre of the project.
The official ratings unraveled by the producing team are showing the other side of the medal getting us hope that the renewal is possible, nevertheless. So, the amount of viewership equals 4.5 million watchers per episode.
Are the chances of the renewal good?
As the ratings are defined, we can now follow the question of the series future. It is rather promising taking into account the viewership.
What concerns the resumption, it has not been so far confirmed formally via posts on Facebook or Twitter, as well as through official press releases. However, we are waiting for it and for the announcement of the From Darkness season 2 release date. Be in the swim so that we could acknowledge you about any updates of the crime story.
