Killing Eve Final Season

 About 1/3 through.  A bit of a yawner.  When Villanelle is on screen, it's interesting.  Conversion to Christianity, for example, ends with her killing the vicar and his daughter.  So much for religion.

The Eve portion, which involves finding the TWELVE, is tedious.  Eve has new boyfriend, Yosuf.  No chemistry at all.  Eve visits Helene who is somehow involved.  Helene burns Eve's hand by holding it on stove top.  Eve leaves.  Oh well.

Often these series improve over time.  Perhaps this will also.  Fingers crossed.

He became one of the most influential and admired British generals after a series of successes in Canada, West Africa, and Egypt, followed by a central role in modernizing the British Army in promoting efficiency. He served in Burma, the  Crimean War , the  Indian Mutiny , China, Canada and widely throughout Africa—including his  Ashanti  campaign (1873–1874) and the  Nile Exp
