The Replacement
In a masterpiece of ambiguity, The Replacement (BBC 1) kept us guessing whether it was maternity-cover architect Paula (Vicky McClure) or new mother Ellen (Morven Christie) who was the more deranged.
Just as we thought we’d worked it out, the pendulum would swing the other way.
During last night’s climactic episode, Paula of the unblinking eyes, her movements as rigid and cold as a block of stone, was conducting job interviews.
‘Some people find this office a bit claustrophobic,’ she said blandly. What she meant was: You don’t have to be mad to work here, but don’t expect any promotion if you’re sane.
