- TriviaThe posters seen in Elias' room are of Cyborg Future, The Legend of Voxtron, Mariko the Spaceman and the aptly chosen The Man Who Fell to Earth, a 1976 science fiction film in which David Bowie starred. The first thee are possible homages to Blade Runner, The Legend of Voltron anime and Mariko Minoguchi, writer of the movie The Colony (2021), respectively.
- GoofsHillinghead suggests that the fact the character in the photograph carried a cane implies that he might have a limp. While possible, it is not a reasonable supposition because, in the Victorian era, many gentlemen carried canes as fashion accessories, not because they needed them.
Featured review
'Do You Know Who I Am?'
The first episode of Bodies was an ambitious dystopian thriller and the four timelines did not feel like a gimmick.
The second episode could not sustain the premise entirely. It was the futuristic timeline of 2053 that felt creaky.
Although it becomes clear that something happened in 2023 that heavily shapes the future. One where a man called Mannix (Stephen Graham) is some kind of enigmatic but also an autocratic leader.
In 2023 it is Shahara Hasan who finds that it is her and her family who are being stalked as she searches for Elias Mannix. The boy who grew up in the same care home as Syed Tahir. Elias's adopted parents seem to be hiding something.
It becomes clear that the detectives in the Victorian and future timeline are also marginalised. Iris Maplewood is disabled. She and her brother were injured in the events that occur in 2023. Whereas Alfred Hillinghead although married is a secret homosexual, hence his aggression towards Henry Ashe.
