). At the conclusion of the gripping first episode of this four-part holiday thriller, she was shocked to discover there was more to her new boyfriend Niko than met the eye. Or, more precisely, there was a lot less to him – and his wallet – than she had first believed.
He was a romantic scam artist who had seduced Emma with a fantasy lifestyle and then smoothly separated his victim from her life savings – just to tide him over while he waited for a cheque to clear, he claimed. Instead, it was he who cleared off, after one final snog with Emma at the end of a instalment that combined cheesy thrills with an intriguing portrait of middle-age heartache.
As the debonair Niko, Kyd was just as persuasive – his performance combined charm with a subtle yet ever-present iffiness. He was never sleazy, just consistently sleaze-adjacent. You could see how his puppy-eyed millionaire routine would hypnotise someone as lost as Emma – even though he was plainly selling her a fantasy.The one left drawing the short straw was Morrissey as Emma’s sad-sack ex.
