Ridley Road (TV Series) Episode #1.3 (2021) User Reviews

Episode 3

[Prismark10 · 6/10 · 27 October 2021]

Colin Jordan's estranged wife shows up. Françoise Dior might have a glamorous name but she is even more vile than her husband.

Dior's presence means Vivien has to snoop around for more information. She discovers a plan to storm a synagogue by Jordan's gang as they try to impress a visiting neo Nazi from the USA.

Soly has trouble getting the police to protect the synagogue. When Jorden's thugs arrive, the Rabbi and his congregation are almost helpless.

Vivien also discovers that her father has been long involved with the anti Nazi movement.

As a thriller it is still lacking. The attack on the Synagogue was well staged, the police actions were not a surprise.

It continues to be of an excellent standard.

The wife of Colin Jordan, Françoise Dior turns up, and causes even more mayhem than her husband.

They seem to be taking it up a notch with each episode, once again we learn and see some incredibly uncomfortable things, it is still so hard to believe that these events took place in Britain.

Bags of tension, lots to ponder, I am intrigued as to what the final episode has in store, the end of this episode has given us an idea of what to expect.

Please be aware that there is some violence here.

This must have cost a pretty penny to make, there is a huge cast here, it looks so good.

Credit to Agnes O'Casey, she is terrific.

I was on tenterhooks, 9/10.
