We absolutely love the show and mostly Idris Elba in it , the writing of the show is top-notch and we have never seen a detective so cool and personified .
I love the show when its first started in 2010 and to be honest i never imagined it to be so good it is armed with very gripping story line and well fitted Characters in the show .
Show star cast includes Idris Elba, Warren Brown, and Ruth Wilson to name a few, and my favorites, Luther is the first stop on your journey to understanding. His depiction of a man who is simultaneously tough as nails and emotionally damaged and I think Ruth is the necessary evil in the show.
As I always say ” Good is only needed in the presence of very Evil “.
“Luther” follows the cases of a troubled yet brilliant English police detective, DCI John Luther (Idris Elba). Separated from his wife, whom he loves passionately, he is torn between an unrelenting approach to solving serial killings and his attempts to rekindle his marriage.
Luther is a highly charged emotional man who is not above stretching the law to solve a case or save a life. In episode one, Alice Morgan (Ruth Wilson) proves she is equally brilliant by committing the perfect murder of her parents, which challenges Luther as never before.
Alice develops a strange fascination for Luther and their continued exchanges and interplay serve as a backdrop for the rest of the season. Luther’s edgy police tactics make him a serious concern to his superiors, who feel that he is a threat to their reputations and that of the Police force. From the opening credits to the end of season one, “Luther” is a fast paced mystery presented with many plot twists and insights into the human psyche.
