Written by Ben Aaronovitch.
An Avon story.
The story of when Avon (Colin Salmon) met Anna Grant (Keeley Hawes) at university in which one of the professors is Ensor (Geoffrey Palmer).
Keeley Hawes does very well with her characterisation of Anna Grant. In the TV series we got hints about the nature of the Avon-Anna relationship. Here in Eye of the Machine we get a full comprehension of that relationship.
Geoffrey Palmer’s characterisation of Ensor is ruthless and calculated and is in stark contrast to the lovely old man played by Derek Farr in Orac.
Quite funny when early on Anna says that she was in a drama society which is an euphemism for her campaign for the Freedom Party in the coming election.
It was quite interesting when Ensor said about control and intelligence, you can have one or the other but not both.
Eye of the Machine is a powerful drama which helps us to understand the coldness that Avon developed personally. Here he had a sense of humour one that wasn’t forthcoming later on in his life.
During the final chapter on the CD there is a long silence between the ending and what turned out to be the Freedom Party song He’s The One and not a bad one at that.
