The Tower - Season 2
Without a tower block, The Tower makes even more of an impression.
The second season of The Tower is a wonderful mix of tension and drama. The cool but extremely driven Inspector Sarah Collins, an excellent role by Gemma Whelan (Gentleman Jack), starts at the homicide department. She is not received very warmly at first, but through her tenacity, she gains respect. Her idiosyncratic behavior makes it difficult for her to make friends. However, that will change during this season.
Novice police officer Lizzie Adama (Tahirah Sharif, A Town called Malice) returns to her department after the events of the first season. Her relationship with her boss Kieran Shaw (Emmet J Scanlan, Kin) causes complications. Lizzie regularly gets into trouble because of her decisions. When a man kills his wife and disappears with their daughter, she comes into contact with Sarah again. The subdued relationship between the two women does not get any better.
Two things are central to this four-episode season. So one is the man who disappears with his daughter. The search for him leads to rather dire situations for the main characters. The other case is a cold case of a disappeared young woman. Sarah's determination ensures that new facts are discovered. The question is whether this is enough to solve the case.
The Tower offers everything you expect from a British police series. Strong acting, unexpected plots and beautifully shot images. The somewhat downbeat backdrop of certain areas of London is quite fitting. The high apartment building that this series revolved around in the first season only appears sporadically. The neighborhood around it, however, even more so. Just like a slowly decaying industrial estate. It sets the dark atmosphere.
Although this season only has four episodes, it never feels rushed. The story is not rushed. Sufficient time is found to highlight the private lives of both main characters. The advantage of so few episodes is that the story remains 'to the point'. There are no unnecessary storylines or situations that contribute little to the central theme. This season ends with a big cliffhanger. As far as I'm concerned, the sequel can follow quickly.
