Misfits is back on fire with this eventful powers-heavy episode...

Misfits: Series 4 Episode 6 review

That the entrance of new gang member Abbey (Natasha O'Keefe) gets a little lost in proceedings isn't surprising, but her introduction doesn't feel contrived.

The delinquents-with-superpowers drama has always excelled in its capacity for the surreal and tonight's episode is no exception. Rudy (Joseph Gilgun) leads Finn (Nathan McMullen), Jess (Karla Crome) and Alex (Matt Stokoe) to a wild house party. But things turn weird when a six-foot rabbit wearing a suit and wielding a golf club starts making a mess of the partygoers. Then Alex makes a confession to Jess about a stolen body part.

Misfits, 4.5 - episode five review

This fifth episode did feature some uses of power, but it was still an episode that didn't particularly require them. Thankfully, taken as a straightforward drama about life, death, fathers, family and secrets... it was one of the better examples.

Misfits series 4 episode 5 review

I may have been the only person in the country who wasn't completely in love with last week's Misfits, but this episode takes a dramatic turn into an area that the show has history of doing extremely well.

Misfits, 4.4 - episode four review

Everything about this episode screamed that I should be loving it, but I just didn't.

Misfits series 4 episode 4 review

It may indeed have been the right time to make a fresh start with all new characters, but it's still sad to see Curtis go when we're not fully transitioned into the new era. We won't see what the dynamic really looks like until next week, so I'll reserve judgement until then.

Poor Curtis: hasn't he learnt by now that all probation workers, even trainee ones, are hopelessly deranged? There's certainly more to his new girlfriend (Lucy Gaskell, who fantasy fans may remember as werewolf George's girlfriend Sam in Being Human) than her come-hither pout. Before you can say, "I love you", Curtis is knee-deep in gore and wrestling a zombie in another eye-wateringly violent episode, and this time there isn't a happy ending. So thank goodness Rudy has a tasteless joke (or six) up his sleeve.
