Finally, Logan Roy has been laid to rest – but in peace? Not in this episode, the penultimate one in the entire series, which has claims to be up there with the very best of Succession. Taking place at Logan’s funeral, this managed to be genuinely moving, funny as hell and narratively gripping.
The show needed this. The final season has been extremely enjoyable – it is nothing but a delight watching these characters fighting it out between each other – but, as with the siblings themselves, it been a bit adrift since Logan died back in the third episode (which feels like a lifetime ago now, but is actually less than a week in the show’s time-frame).
