I Know Who You Are series two primer – who’s who, and what the hell is going on?
This weekend sees the start of series two of Spanish series I Know Who You Are, surely one of the most helter-skelter, fun crime dramas of the year. It’s impossibly fast-paced, twisty-turny, and full of horrible people doing horrible things to each other. We’ve documented why the series split up into two (read all about…
BBC Four confirms series two of I Know Who You Are transmission date
NB: SPOILERS INSIDE There was mild-to-medium consternation when BBC Four decided to not show the second part – series? – of the sensational Spanish crime drama, I Know Who You Are. Although the series was commissioned as a two-part series in its native Spain, it was shown as one, long 16-part series. Instead, the BBC…
Review: I Know Who You Are (S1 E9&10/10), Saturday 12th August, BBC Four
So where do we start with this two-part finale? Really, it all happened. There were things that I expected, and things I didn’t. Those characters – Juan Elías, Eva Durán, Alicia Castro – I had grown to love and despise in equal measure had all their flaws and ambiguities on full show tonight. But instead…
I Know Who You Are to return for second series later this year
If you’ve been reading my reviews of Spanish series I Know Who You Are, you’ll know I’ve been quite taken by it all. Of course it’s flawed and daft, and beggars belief sometimes, but I’ve enjoyed the pace, the brazen commitment to telling what is an ultra high-concept story, and the characters – no one…
Review: I Know Who You Are (S1 E7&8/10), Saturday 5th August, BBC4
I’m still trying to catch up with stuff after a bit of a break, and I really had to dig back into this fantastic Spanish series – I’ve really enjoyed it so far and have been totally swept up in its roller-coaster plot, breakneck pace and multi-layered characters. Yes, it’s daft; yes, it’s convoluted; and…
Review: I Know Who You Are (S1 E5&6/10), Saturday 29th July, BBC4
This fantastic, helter-skelter series continued with two more episodes tonight, once again taking us down new avenues of enquiry, presenting new suspects and uncovering yet more layers of familial intrigue and hidden character layers. In fact, that seems to be the main theme of this series – identity, and how it shifts and changes after…
EXCLUSIVE Interview: Aida Folch, I Know Who You Are
BBC4’s Spanish thriller I Know Who You Are is a sensational helter-skelter thrill ride of a series and, as we’re approaching episodes five and six, we’re still none the wiser as to whether lawyer Juan Elías is suffering from amnesia or not or whether he has murdered his niece, Ana Saura. The series – Sé…
Review: I Know Who You Are (S1 E3&4/10), Saturday 22nd July, BBC4
Apologies for the delay in posting this, but it has been a busy weekend up at Harrogate for the Theakstons Old Peculiar Crime Writing Festival. While much carousing was had during the weekend I did manage to watch episodes three and four of I Know Who You Are earlier in the week, but didn’t get…
Review: I Know Who You Are (S1 E1&2/10), Saturday 15th July, BBC4
BBC Four has had a bit of mixed bag of a year when it has come to foreign crime drama – Cardinal was workmanlike but watchable, and has been the channel’s only real crime drama of note in 2017. Walter Presents and Netflix have been much more prolific so far. But we’re entering what broadcasters…
BBC Four acquires Spanish crime drama I Know Who You Are
Regardless of the fact that Walter Presents is going great guns at the moment and there are other channels to watch foreign-language crime drama on, nothing quite beats the Saturday-9pm-slot on BBC Four. There’s still a lot to be said for tuning in once a week to follow a story (linear style, how old fashioned)…
