Grace: Dead Man's Footsteps (2022)

A modern day classic!

No spoilers!

Huge credit must go to writer Russell Lewis for his adaptation of this episode 'Dead Man's Footsteps'.

As a viewer, to be genuinely challenged to a understanding a plot and then be paid off with the most 'grown up' and intelligent punchline endings ever broadcast on terrestrial TV is a joy!

Colombo's 'Forgotten Lady', any episode of 'Hill Street Blues' and the original Thomas Crown Affair film scripts were ground breaking and have stood the test of time.

This specific episode should be recognised in the same category!

I'm only just catching up with Grace and have been impressed with the overall building of characters, their relatable on going issues and leaving you really wanting to know their future.

If you haven't seen Grace yet, treat yourself to some emotional and thought provoking TV that is a nice workout for the old grey cells!
