None of the British dramas I've watched so far have disappointed me, including this Silk of course. Intense pacing, fast-cut shots, and captivating suspense, the production is as good as ever. It's just that it was as bloody as an American drama, which surprised me.
Of course, Silk is candid about the relationship between lawyers and "factual justice." "80% of the defendants are guilty." It is not concealed that whether the defendant is "guilty" or not depends on the ability of the lawyer. But that's all. For the sake of "factual justice", Matha even made a move to the opposing lawyer of the same firm, and deliberately opened the door during the prosecution and defense, which is very sensational. What's even more sensational is that she got Silk in a big reunion, and also persuaded Billy not to fire Kate, who was behind the conspiracy, and ended the episode with a touching We are family speech. I thought the national anthem would be played here.
No fudge, no blood, proud and disdain, spicy and bold, this is the British drama in my mind. Although American fast food is popular all over the world, if all the world is American fast food, it will be a disaster.
It turns out that British dramas also produce chicken soup, such as "Downton Abbey", such as this Silk. Honestly speaking, the quality of British chicken soup is still better, the kind of swaying, sharp, and rejecting stupidity is in the bones. The most fascinating thing is of course their mouthpieces. Whether it's Matha, Clive, Billy... I want to cut the tongue and stir-fry it into a dish. After eating it, the tongue will be fragrant and flowers will fall on the floor. It was the skinny and sexy British voice that first captured my soul in British dramas. The talented barristers are more charismatic, and any supporting role seems to have a fief at home. These days' proud people not only call for wind and rain on the compass of all living beings, but also ignore all the rules and enjoy what others can't enjoy. This is the IQ content that English chicken soup is basically equipped with.
