    Cancel your bank holiday plans and binge ‘outstanding’ Amazon Prime thriller instead

    If you’re an Amazon Prime Video subscriber, then cancel your weekend plans because there’s a classic BBC crime drama you need to watch.

    All three seasons of thriller The Fall have been added to Prime Video, and that means you’ll have a better time on the couch this Bank Holiday weekend than you will at the beach.

    First aired in 2013, the show follows detective Stella Gibson (Gillian Anderson), who is trying to capture Paul Spector (Jamie Dornan), the serial killer responsible for the murders of multiple young professional women in Belfast.

    On Google, fans have been recommending ‘outstanding in every way’ The Fall after it was added to Amazon Prime, free to watch for subscribers.

    Among them is Laura Clark, who shared: ‘This impeccably acted series is worth a rewatch, even. This is my second time watching it through, and I haven’t seen anything of its calibre since. If you enjoy dark, suspenseful dramas because of what they teach you about the human condition and how they resonate with deep, personal feelings, this is the epitome of that.’

    Gail Alkovich wrote: ‘Outstanding in every way. A truly well-written and superbly acted thriller. Jamie Dornan blows you away with this character, so far removed from the engaging, charming characters he has played. Always loved Gillian Anderson, but have high regard for her talent after seeing her very deep and complex portrayal of this female detective.’

    Viewers have been rediscovering The Fall on Amazon Prime

    Echoing their sentiment, T D said: ‘Best crime show ever. ashtonishingly deep, it explores a wide range of different issues through its characters (top notch performers as well), such as mental illnesses and/or disorders (narcissism, alcoholism, depression, etc). It represents how painful it is to live through our [harmed] inner child, how essential it is to ask for help and receive it from the right people, and also, the multiple forms of one single individual. I could keep going, but I’ll let you discover the rest for yourself.’

    Dina Brown also added: ‘What a shocker of a series. Not for the faint of heart, it’s brutal but very well acted. It starts out slow, but trust me, stick with it, because it becomes an amazingly shocking ride.’

    The Fall was also a hit with critics, boasting an impressive 85% average score on Rotten Tomatoes’ reviews aggregator, the Tomatometer.

    Last year, Sex Education actor Gillian, 56, revealed they came ‘very close’ to producing a fourth season of The Fall but ‘couldn’t quite crack it.’

    The show followed the hunt for serial killer Paul Spector, played by Jamie

    She told Variety: ‘It was one of my favourite characters I ever got to play, and the experience was fantastic with an amazing crew like Allan Cubitt, an incredibly talented writer, who directed the second and third seasons.

    ‘We were re-opening up the idea again a few years ago. I approached them about doing a fourth season, set a few years later. We went down that distance and explored the idea, but couldn’t quite crack it. We came very close.

    ‘Many people ask about it, and I believe she’s the kind of character we could step into her at any time, so I don’t think it’s entirely put to bed.’

    The Fall is not the only show gripping Amazon Prime Video viewers.

    They’ve also been devouring every episode of family crime drama they claim ‘outshines’ Peaky Blinders.

    Animal Kingdom even stars one of the BBC’s show’s actors, Finn Cole, who played Michael Gray.

    The Fall came ‘very close’ to a fourth season set several years later.

    First aired in 2016, the thriller follows Finn’s character Joshua ‘J’ Cody who moves in with his estranged relatives, the Codys, who run a criminal family enterprise in California, after the death of his mother.

    On Reddit, Turbulent-Truth-4059 urged: ‘How is no one talking about how good ANIMAL KINGDOM IS🔥🔥🔥 watch it.’

    Agreeing, FineJellyfish4321 raved: ‘Yes!!! I always recommend it and a lot of people don’t even know about it. I didn’t until last year, but once I started I was absolutely hooked! That is hands down one of the best shows I’ve ever seen!’

    jwC731 added: ‘Highly underrated show imo.’

    The Fall is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
