Cops and Robbers!!

If there is one show that never ceases to run out twists, it would have to be the British sensation: "HUSTLE"!!
**Spoiler Alert**
After 8 seasons of exquisite conman magic- I figured they had finally run out of ideas in the latest episode (Series 8 Episode 3) when they had DI Fisk take on the crew. Initially, it appeared as though the episode resembled (Series 7 Episode 1) when DCI Britford took on the gang. I had predicted that the twist would be that the gang would appear to have been caught red-handed with the cash, only to have done a switch at a particular point in the episode making a fool of DI Fisk, and the rest of the Police Department!!


Well, It appears I was in fact very wrong! The genius writer of this episode took a whole new approach in which Chief Inspector Wayne-Wright actually blackmailed Mickey and his crew into working for her to get evidence of DI Fisk being the dirty cop that he is! Who saw that coming?! Twists in recent television have been rather lackluster. Looking back not so long ago, The twist in the 6th Season of Dexter was one that was easily predictable to any frequent television/movie watcher. However, Hustle continues to find new ways to shock it's audience. The crew really do know everyone in London.


Excellent episode. 9/10


If you love suspense/crime television- Watch HUSTLE- You will not be disappointed!!
