With its final shortened series, Season 7 feels like a timely end for Elementary
“Every problem has a solution”
Here’s my 8 favourite performances in Season 7 of Elementary
- As his name might suggest, James Frain’s tech magnate Odin Reichenbach occupies a crucial place in this final series, emerging as a key antagonist…
- The show’s move to London in opening episode ‘The Further Adventures’ offers up the brilliant tease of Tamsin Greig’s DCI Athelney Jones as a new lead character but that is sadly shortlived
- It does however mean we get a return visit from Ophelia Lovibond’s sparky Kitty
- Gabriel Ebert’s Sebastian Florenti is worth the price of admission in Episode 3 ‘The Price of Admission’, ba-dum-tish…
- Episode 4 ‘Red Light, Green Light’ features a few Broadway faces but I’m picking the lovely Heléne Yorke here, whose embittered wife Holly Meers contributes much at the end
- Quentin Earl Darrington’s Mr Dewashe also stands out in this episode, looking v sharp in his suit
- I love Lindsay Mendez’s work in All Rise so seeing her in Episode 10 ‘The Latest Model’ as an opinionated Dr. Angela Hardy goes some way to heightening its thrills
- One of those oh so familiar faces, Bob Gunton has a small but crucial part to play in penultimate episode ‘Reichenbach Falls’
