The Thomas Thorne Affair (2020) User Reviews (4)

Treachery and laughs, brilliant episode.

[Sleepin_Dragon · 9/10 · 24 October 2020]

Mike finds a musket ball, which brings back a terrible memory for Thomas.

Thomas Thorne, the ghostly poet is put centre stage, Matthew Baynton is brilliant throughout. He's been a big character throughout, we've seen all of his little quirks, this episode wonderfully gives him a history, whilst involving many other ghosts.

Funny and moving, The BBC once again showing how well they do costumes, it looks pretty wonderful.

Lots of funny scenes, Robin perhaps delivers the funniest moment.... his sister...

Loved it, 9/10.

Added depth- without losing any of the humour.

This backstory was moving- as the Captain's was. It's adding more to the series-finding out the ghosts past- but never loses it's sense of humour. I am so glad there is a third series.

A fantastic Rashomon-esque piece

A credit to the comedy genre and only possible within the paranormal setting. Too much explaining might spoil the plot so I won't. It's really really good, though. If you're this far into the series you know that already.

We did not need that blow by blow recap in the end as Thomas figured out what happened. It felt like they thought the audience was dumb.

Nevertheless, a well-done episode. Good backstory and an emotional roller coaster.
