The Man in the High Castle — Series 3 — Episodes 6 and 7: History Ends and Excess Animus

18th October, 2018

No, I’m right, aren’t I … ?

Stuff doesn’t get built to last!

I only changed the bulb in the lamp — the one in the lamp shade right next to my desk — a couple of days ago.

And … ?

And, JUST when I want to record an intro video, and want half way decent lighting … ?

‘Click,’ goes the bulb … 

And out goes the light.

I think I’m going to have to visit Poundland in the morning!

Or possibly Wilko’s, going by the web site!

At ANY rate … ?

It’s been a quiet day off … 

That’s seen me catching more TV.

You can tell I’m going to mention the third season of The Man in the High Castle, again, can’t you … ?

Episode 6 — History Ends — after she’s killed Joe (Luke Kleintank), Juliana (Alexa Davalos) is in a state of shock.

And turns to Wyatt (Jason O’Mara) for help.

She needs to get a the plans she’s taken from Joe’s corpse to Trade Minister Tagomi (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa).

Episode 7 — Excess Animus —  sees the ruthless Inspector Kido (Joel de la Fuente) cox vital intelligence from Robert Childan (Brennan Brown).

Whilst Juliana is re-united with seem very old friends: Frank and Ed (Rupert Evens and DJ Qualls).

She’s thinking spreading the word about The Grasshopper Lies Heavy might just be useful …

Now … you can possibly tell it’s — comparatively — late.

You’re looking at shorter and shorter reviews … !

Frankly?

At the moment, I want to go to bed, as I have a long working weekend ahead of me: AND need to buy lightbulbs!

But?

I want it on record that I’ve seen two more fantastic episodes, tonight: with History Ends, in particular, being a nail bitingly tense thriller of an episode.

Do I want more?

You bet!

The frustrating thing is that — as I’ve a long work week ahead of me? — it’s going to be a few days before I see more of The Man in the High Castle.
