DCI Banks Bad Boy: Part 2 (2010–2016) watch online HD

This review relates to parts 1 and 2 of Bad Boy.

Bad boys, bad boys, what you're gonna do when they come for you...this episode of DCI Banks is the final episode of season 3. DCI Banks is one of my favorites and I wish a series had more episodes!!!

Anyway, here DCI Banks' daughter (Tracy) plays a central role in Bad Boys, falling for bad boy Jaffer "Jaff" Kitson, who goads another bad boy Mitchell Channing (who it turns out is the son of the elder bad boy Al Jenkins) into shooting Richard Martin in a road rage incident run amok. Richard was a DJ and I'm not sure if he was a bad boy, but imagine if Channing had targeted a VIP, TV celebrity, or someone like that who innocently drove by.

In the subplot, there's another bad boy. Supt Mike Trethowan tampered with evidence during a gun raid at the Doyle residence, to protect Alice Craig, who was inexperienced and also happened to be Mike's girlfriend. DS Annie Cabbot (who is now Banks' girlfriend) rights the wrongs through her internal investigation to clear DI Marton.

One consistent motif is the bad guy having a grand house in Yorkshire. Here bad boy Al Jenkins has an impressive mansion with impressive views.

DCI Banks is a bit of a bad boy as he tries to get his daughter back from the clutches of bad boy Jaff. He does so with the help of Mark Warburton (Syrus Low) in the heart-stopping final scene in Leeds.

Once again, problems within the department cause all kinds of problems. Morton is under investigation from an overzealous guy. Banks' daughter is kidnapped but the rules prohibit him from acting appropriately. Also, he is an emotional mess and not thinking straight. He probably would have been fired under many circumstances. Annie appears to have betrayed him--mostly because of her own ambition. Nevertheless, this is quite an engaging episode with some tension and some good acting. I'm hoping that next season, the daughter goes back to college, or at least away from the series.
