The Devil's Hour never doubts itself for an instant, and even when it’s hard to keep things straight — which, I won’t lie, happened more than once for me — you’re never in doubt that it knows what it’s doing, that it’ll come to some kind of conclusion that feels right, even if it might not be totally satisfying.

It’s almost perversely complex, but there are times when the multi-layering works beautifully.

The two of them [Jessica Raine and Peter Capaldi] together are dynamite, and worth the price of admission. (This was also true in Season 1, but they get much better material to work with here.)
