Guys, Idris Elba saved the day, we had our conclusion to Hijack and the series concluded with rhythm, surprises – quite a lot of surprises – and twists until the last second. However, even leaving open a path to continue (on land) would have been somewhat rushed?

In the end, two supervillains who were behind bars managed to combine multiple murders and kidnappings, even outside England, to manage to escape and get rich in the process. The guarantee that they were going to achieve their objectives was to hand-select some people so that they would carry out the kidnapping, with plans B and C hidden even from those who were leading the action. So who could you trust?

Their bad luck was to have Sam Nelson (Idris Elba) on the flight. For seven hours, he commanded the entire narrative from the air, manipulating bad guys and good guys so that everything ended well. At least four victims (five, if you include the bad guy. Oops, no! Six, including the bad guy’s mother!) were collateral and I feel for them as we had no guarantee of justice for them. And that’s what was left in the air, a rush as if we were all trapped on the plane and dying to get out. Unless it really is the beginning of a bigger story. It will be?

Here are the compliments for good content, which entertains and makes us yearn for more. Poor passengers!
