ITV\u2019s latest crime drama The Tower<\/a> began airing last night, with the three-part series set to continue tonight before airing its finale tomorrow.<\/p>\n Adapted from ex-Metropolitan Police Officer Kate London\u2019s novel Post Mortem, The Tower\u2019s cast<\/a> includes Game of Thrones star Gemma Whelan as DS Sarah Collins and The Haunting of Bly Manor\u2019s Tahirah Sharif as PC Lizzie Adama.<\/p>\n With a stellar cast, a plot kicked off by two grisly deaths and a mysterious disappearance, with its stars teasing it would shine a light on police officers\u2019 unconscious biases<\/a>, The Tower promised to be a hit in the making. But now the first episode has aired, reviews are in, and reactions have been quite mixed.<\/p> Many praised the drama\u2019s \u201crealistic\u201d approach to police work, calling it \u201cintriguing\u201d and \u201cbrilliant\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cGreat to see a real police job being run as it would in real life. For the first time I\u2019ve watched a realistic police drama. Well done ITV,\u201d a fan tweeted when asked whether they would tune in for episode two tonight.<\/p>\n Definitely, great to see a real police job being run as it would in real life. For the first time I\u2019ve watched a realistic police drama. Well done ITV<\/p>\u2014 Gaye (@GayeHamlet5) November 8, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote>
