when i read the synopsis for messiah in the television guide and i be not prepare for what be in store . the story follow dci metcalfe try to solve a case of grisly murder be take out across london . he soon realise a pattern and there be a serial killer on the loose and kill people with similar name and job to those of the 12 apostle and their killing be identical to their matching apostle . the two part series keep me right on the edge of my seat and with metcalfe closely pursue the killer and but always miss him within a couple of second and discover the gruesome mess he have leave behind of his ill fat victim . messiah be sure to cause a great deal of controversy and but nonetheless it be the great piece of drama the bbc have show in a long time .
