The play is 6 episodes long, trying to show the multi-dimensional British society, and using CCTV (surveillance video) as the entry to lead out this case, and try to lead a series of cases through one case.

In this play, we can temporarily divide it into a three-line narrative structure, and start to analyze it after the fourth episode, but from the first episode, the contest and competition of various forces have begun, the grass gray snake line, Fu Yan Qianli .

The first line is that the two lawyers and the Arab bk forces behind them are trying to reproduce an unjust case A by means of "imitation", and by reproducing an obvious unjust case, to push out the previous case B. "Injustice", that is, by invading and delaying the surveillance video, replacing the original real video with face replacement technology, creating an illusion, and then publicizing the forged content to draw the conclusion that the surveillance video is not credible, It then overturned the conclusion that the video evidence was the key evidence for the conviction, and then argued that the Arab criminals had insufficient evidence and tried to save the Arabs from prison.

The second line is the British National Security Bureau, the Anti-K Bureau and related departments. In this play, three leaders are represented. When they see that A is fake, they will take action in time to monitor the surveillance in the case of A. The video was deducted, that is, the innocent M could not be convicted through the fake surveillance video, so the people in the first line could not complete their assumptions. However, after the people in the third line uploaded this video to the Internet, He just planned to make a fake show and prove that it was not an unjust case by forcing M to confess his guilt, so it can be concluded that there is no problem with the surveillance video, so the first line of people can't achieve their goals.

The third line is the line of the heroine, and it is also the line that we show as the main perspective. In this line, in the first 3 episodes, we are all in the dark, that is, we don’t know what’s going on, we don’t know the competition behind it, so it’s just to check Get the truth.

In the third line, what I think is more interesting is the "battle" between the female sheriff and the heroine. In fact, the relationship between the female sheriff and the heroine is not completely obedient. The female sheriff will monitor the video. When it was uploaded on the Internet, she actually betrayed the heroine. In the second time, when the heroine and the female sheriff moved the body, the female sheriff again informed and betrayed the heroine for the second time.

In fact, in this play, the sheriff and the heroine represent two different people. The female sheriff represents a person with an obedient personality who keeps herself safe and obeys orders, so she can become a qualified "chess piece", but the heroine is not willing, so she will not only become a "chess piece".

There are a few interesting places in this play:

1. The relationship between the heroine and the male boss in the anti-k bureau, the relationship between rapid promotion and qf, in the car that the camera can't capture, the male boss put his hand on the lap of the heroine, etc. In this play , did not avoid, but confronted.

2. The structure of the imitator is a bit like the clip in the Korean movie "Montage", trying to find the real culprit by imitating the crime.

3. Use the male protagonist's daughter to excite the male protagonist. This trick is great.

4. In the end, the heroine's compromise, because there is no other way, can only compromise.

5. The tampering of surveillance video is not for forgery, but for reproduction of reality.

The above are the points that I think are more distinctive, and they are also the points of anti-routine.

Next, let me talk about the points of the routine in this play:

1. Since the people in the first line can tamper with the surveillance video, they will also have "fake" surveillance video in their hands, so why do they hold down the surveillance video when they know that the person in the second line does not spread it? Under the circumstances, instead of uploading the "fake video" directly, what about choosing to go to the female lawyer's house to get the necklace? It's a bit unexplainable, but the surveillance video was uploaded by the female sheriff.

2. The problem of smearing of surveillance, since you have paid so much for this matter, why should you forget the surveillance video on the bus, and how to remove the recording of the surveillance video taken during the simulation in the previous simulation Woolen cloth? In fact, it can also be explained in one hundred secrets, but it is still a bit of a routine.

To sum up, this drama is still a good drama, with a fast pace and a solid script.

    The pace is very fast! No nonsense! ! Homeland Security is Visual Sense! ! ! However, look at how simple our aunt Carrie dresses up and looks like she has a strong career, but the heroine of this show, as a big leader of the criminal police team, is a little too good-looking, and her dress is too fashionable, and it is easy to make plays ! The male protagonist is too stylish, very good! !

    The best suspense/political thriller British drama to watch this year, with plots, performances, and sometimes cuteness, perfectly showing the powerlessness of us under surveillance in the future. The strength crushed the so-called best "Bodyguard" last year. And was infected by the freckled brother's explosive performance in Fantastic Beasts.
