Keira Knightley in Chanel
Not only is this boring, but the pant length once again is wrong, as seems to be the way of things lately. Her hair ALSO looks very staid. This is just so... Newscaster at a Funeral. With one exception...
Keira
She had one of these on her lapel, too, and here they are on her sleeves: Whimsical buttons. Those are very funny, but alas, do not save the entire outfit. But they're a surprise – kind of like when the wife of a government minister also kills people for hire, actually.
Ben Whishaw
The erstwhile Paddington Bear is so good on the show – honestly heartbreaking at times. And he is here looking very much like he's about to go stroll innocently along the Thames and stop at a particular bench for Reasons, or perhaps dig around in a wastebasket for a parcel.
Sarah Lancashire
She's the queen of the Black Doves, and might as well be in costume here, too.
Sam Riley
This is a very FANCY version of, "And then later I shall slip into the shadows, screw on my silencer, and shoot the head of a terrorist organization while he walks into his house."
Andrew Buchan
He plays Keira's husband. He is NOT a spy, but might be about to become Prime Minister, and will almost certainly have to do some shady shit – for which, yes, he is well-dressed here.
Ella Lily Hyland
She is one of my very favorite parts of the show. Those boots look SO catastrophic for circulation? Maybe they're more like compression boots and they actually help her veins.
Babou Ceesay
I love his brooch. I'm sure I'm supposed to call it a lapel pin, but to me it's a brooch. He's LESS covertly dressed but could toss the jacket into a nearby pond if he needs to go into stealth mode.
Gabrielle Creevy
I was with her on this journey until we got to her socks. And maybe the overlay, but for me the shortie socks with heels tip over into childishness.
Neve Campbell
And then Neve rolled up looking like she's up for some holiday carols and mulled wine, if anyone else is into it.
Ambika Mod
And Ambika over here, who is also joining this season, just veered FULL ON into color. Which is nice, even if her waist detail looks a tad... umbilical.
The Crew
This photo made me laugh – like somebody was like, "Shit, throw a cloak over Ambika! It's not grim enough!!!"
