ScreenHub: Deadloch review – the new season of this Aussie crime comedy is even funnier
It’s been three years since we last hung out with the crime-fighting duo of Senior Sergeant Dulcie Collins (Kate Box) and Detective Eddie Redcliffe (Madeleine Sami). Now, they’ve left the chilly town of Deadloch for Eddie’s home turf of Barra Creek in the Northern Territory, where the duo seeks to uncover the truth about the death of her former police partner.
Sticky, sweaty and juggling comprehensive thrush infections, the detectives find themselves embroiled in a world of crocodile-fuelled tourism, overstretched Indigenous rangers, cagey locals and seven-metre-long prehistoric predators. As the humidity builds, and Eddie and Dulcie dig deeper, more questions arise – not only about the case, but the many secrets that lie beneath the surface of this small town. Sounds like hot stuff. Watch the trailer.
