TV review Television TV review: The Bridge; Vera. I don't know yet if The Bridge is as good as the first series of The Killing. What I'm not getting, along with its bleakness, is the humanness.

Some noteworthy names
While there are obviously plenty of names in the cast for Vera episode 2, we’re looking specifically at Harki Bhambra, Lawrence Walker and Tom Glenister.
Vera Reviews And Ratings
Harki Bhambra has had nine acting roles to his name since his career began on Doctor Who in 2015, the biggest of which arguably came in Our Girl where he appeared as Rab is 12 episodes of the war drama.
Lawrence Walker is another actor who many will also recognise from Our Girl as he appeared as the character Dangleberries in nine episodes of the BBC series. Other major roles for Walker include Casualty, The Rezort and Find Me in Paris.
And finally, we have Tom Glenister and while his first name may not ring a bell, his surname is certainly one people will recognise. That’s because Tom Glenister, whose biggest roles to date have been in Unhallowed Ground and Doc Martin, is the son of Robert Glenister and nephew of Philip Glenister, both well-renowned actors.
Vera, meanwhile, continues on ITV on Sunday, January 26th with the fourth and final episode of series 10 heading our way on February 2nd. Episodes 1 and 2 are also both available to stream on ITV Hub.
