I blogged back in December 2024 about the British spy thriller series Black Doves, which is available on Netflix. I enjoyed it, although the plot was absurd at times. Nevertheless, as it was set during Christmastime, it made for an interesting alternative to the usual seasonal fluff. Well, the second season has been released this month, so I have started watching it yesterday. It's far from perfect, in fact so far this season is even more ridiculous than the first one! As in: the wife of the new PM is also a spy/honey trap and sneaks out of a reception for a risky operation involving the cracking of a safe and a lot of shooting. Like I said, far from the best, maybe not even good, yet I'm a sucker for spy thriller, so I have decided to watch it. This season seems to be set in autumn, not Christmas, so it could be part of my Noirvember watchlist, if it wasn't far-fetched and a tad too light at times, especially for the subject matter. All the same, it has blood and guts, so I guess it can sort of do for Noirvember. But I should pick up more suitable series and films.
