Luther - Season 5
In the fifth season we are going through a powerful series of new criminal events and adventures that speak of a different and powerful world of dramatic drama. The series begins with criminal scenes and a seemingly different drama, as the number of bodies rises, with George Cornelius' gang still under pressure. On the other hand, Luther is trying to catch up with the serial killer.

A psychotic killer, a sneering shrink, Dermot Crowley and Ruth Wilson - it's like he's never been away.

By the end of the first instalment, this four parter, continuing tonight, looked set to be the Luther that really lets rip. Bring it on.

It veered dangerously close to torture porn at times, with lingering shots of stab wounds and severed extremities.

With two superb stars, the emphasis on demonic violence can only damage the drama and turn viewers off.
