The so-called "loophole" in the final episode and speculation about the plot of the second season

This is not a movie review, just a casual discussion of the show. The reason is that my university teacher (a domestic first-line screenwriter) asked me if I had watched this British drama that was broadcast recently. I never watch TV, so I went to watch it after listening to her. Here's our conversation about the show:

Teacher Wang: The actors in Game of Thrones seem to be recognized by the British audience? Ask my classmates, a Chinese internet rumour, a British drama called "Bodyguard", is the young wolf protagonist of Game of Thrones. It is said to have the highest ratings in the UK in ten years, but I watched it, at least the last four episodes, and I don't have any special feeling. The actor didn't think it was anything special. It is said that the new 007 was appointed because of this drama. Is it credible?

My reply: I made up lessons for two days on the weekend and watched the drama, and I finally finished watching the six episodes of "The Bodyguard". It's very nice, thank you for the recommendation! However, my opinion is not the same as yours. I think the first few episodes are not bad, but this drama is getting better as it goes on, especially the last two episodes are climaxing one after another, and all the conspiracies that have been foreshadowed in front of them all start to surface. Oh, how wonderful.

The actor you mentioned is called Richard Madden, and his acting skills are really good. Because the difficulty of his role is that, first of all, he is a veteran, and it is impossible for him to have a higher education, so he obviously has a local accent, and he has to be a little stupid as a military general to be more real, so the character positioning he plays is very accurate. It's hard for me to even imagine what this actor would have been like in real life if it wasn't for Bud from the show. The highest state of acting is not like, but "yes". So I think his acting skills are pretty good, and the heroine's acting skills have nothing to say, and it can fully support the big drama. This actor's team is very good, and even the supporting roles are not lost.

As for why the ratings are so high, it is estimated that the British audience is tired of watching too many soap operas, and this drama involves politics, etc., similar to the type of "House of Cards", but the angle of selection of this drama is very clever, that is, from a big To write this kind of high-level political palace fighting drama from the perspective of a rude bodyguard, it is both brain-burning and good-looking in an action movie, so the audience of Yangchun Baixue and Xia Liba people think it looks good.

As for whether he will serve as the next 007, I checked the news on the Internet. The matter is not confirmed, but the media is doing an investigation to speculate whether he can become a 007 candidate. But my favorite 007 is the previous Brosnan, my true love, hahaha. .

Teacher Wang: Haha, thank you classmates, it seems that there is indeed a gap between the two of us. The team of this drama is a heavy responsibility, and I have watched too many similar dramas, and I really don't think there are too many exciting things. Although what you said makes sense, the actor at least has a Scottish accent for this role, but I don't think he has plastic surgery-like acting skills. The last two episodes, especially the last one, were really rushed and far-fetched in many places. I don't really like Richard as an actor in Game of Thrones, maybe it's a personal preference, hahaha. I also like Brosnan. After watching Mamma Mia, the male god is old. Craig I like it too. I like these two 007s, but I don't like this young wolf master.

I replied: I have always wanted to watch the heavy duty on my shoulders, but I can’t see it online. I rarely turn on the TV, and I always watch dramas online. The screenwriters of the two dramas are the same person, so maybe I don't think bodyguards are bad without comparing them. The whole cast of this show is still strong, and the last episode did end a little too quickly, but I guess it's because there's just not enough time. The last episode took a full 1 hour and 20 minutes to end in a hurry, which is already the capacity of a movie. So obviously there must be a second season of this show, because the line about the NSA hasn't been made clear.

From the script, I understand that in the last episode, the NSA ordered the Muslim woman in prison to carry all her sins by herself, so that they could be separated from them and have nothing to do with them. But in fact, the Muslim woman is in prison. If there is no insider, it is absolutely impossible to make such a complex bomb and send it many times. And there is a very obvious logical loophole here, that is, the police originally asked the Muslim woman if she had anything to do with the bombing of her child's school. At that time, the police had no evidence and did not think to ask her about the serial cases such as the bombing of the university. However, she actually confessed all at once, admitting that all the bombings were made by herself and given to the criminal gang. This is obviously illogical, because she has absolutely no need to admit anything other than her child's school, much less claim responsibility for all these chain cases. What good can she do to her by putting all the blame on herself like this?

In addition, there are two logical loopholes: First, let’s take a step back. Even if the bomb that killed the heroine was made by a Muslim woman in prison and installed by a triad in a university lecture hall, the job that caused the bomb to explode Personnel, the people from the National Security Bureau and the Ministry of Home Affairs always forced the poor Indian guy to stand on the stage with the file bag? So how could the NSA be completely clear from this? There is also a more obvious loophole. If the Muslim woman really said that she is the jihadist who made the bomb, then the first episode starts on the train, why didn't she press the button as soon as she saw the male protagonist open the door and found her Bomb button, explode? If her purpose is to make a suicide explosion, the bomb explodes at this time, and the passengers in the carriages on both sides have not retreated, and she immediately explodes when she is discovered. Isn't it just enough to achieve the purpose of her jihad?

So in any case, this Muslim woman just came out to take the blame in the last episode, and she did it all according to the order. However, these very obvious loopholes in the last episode are absolutely impossible for the screenwriter to suddenly become stupid, but are obviously the foreshadowing of the second season.

I guess the focus of the second season will return to this thread from the National Security Bureau. The resignation of the Prime Minister seems to be a scapegoat. Because if there is no bigger conspiracy and manipulator behind it, it is impossible for the National Security Agency to leak the prime minister's tainted evidence to the Home Secretary (the heroine), and then kill and silence. So the ending of the first season is obviously a real fisherman who has not yet solved the mystery. The second season should be this mantis catching cicadas, the unknown oriole (big BOSS) behind the oriole appears, and the male bodyguard continues to upgrade the PK duel.

expect.
