It’s never what was is in the presentation, it is always what is excluded that leaves the viewer, the expectant fan aghast at the omission of what could have been, and the counter narrative that suggests a different conclusion to those paid, employed to deliver the freedom of the story in the best way they see fit.

Film appreciation is in part understanding the chaos that is suffered during production, it is the point where the audience or the casual onlooker can be informed of the trials and tribulations behind the scenes, and where it might lead to understanding that the cracked porcelain vase of celluloid has been neglected or undergone what could arguably be described as a form of sabotage or cinematic early death.

Atlantis: Series Two. Television Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 1/10

Cast: Mark Addy, Jack Donnelly, Robert Emms, Aiysha Hart, Sarah Parish, Jemima Roper, Juliet Stevenson, Amy Manson, Ken Bones, Peter De Jersey, Lorcan Cranitch, Vincent Regan, Robert Lindsay, Joseph Timms, John Hannah, Robert Pugh, Ronald Pickup, Philip Correia, Anya Taylor-Joy.

The surprise was not that Atlantis was cancelled but the fact that it was made at all.

In one of the rare mistakes of drama production by the B.B.C., Atlantis finally washed up on the shores of discontent and died a long lingering death in a series that was split in two. Much heralded as a winter replacement for Doctor Who, the second series of the fantasy based drama descended to the point where arguably viewers were watching to see how bad it could actually become.
