Chromosome 21 (2022)
8/10
Such a pleasure to watch
12 August 2023
I don't mind admitting that I choked up once and blubbed once during this series. The beautiful, innocent faces of the otherwise-abled people taking part as actors are the lasting impression I shall keep of this production. More conventionally, hunky Gastón Salgado playing Tomy's brother was a feast for the eyes too.

My Spanish is nowhere near good enough to watch any series in that language, let alone one with Chilean accents, without subtitles and these are my only gripe. Salgado's character's nickname was Bekam but was rendered as Beckham in the subs. I don't know why, but it really annoyed me. The translator really should have checked properly.

The storyline was convoluted but the clues were there until all was revealed. Then it was a question of Inspector Enriquez getting the guilty ones busted and how.

There was no cliffhanger so I don't expect a second season. That's such a shame.

I watched this within a twenty four hour period and was avid after each episode to see more. Big recommend.
