HPI - SEASON 4, EPISODE 2: ISO 8601 (TF1)

[Favourite of the Month] The fabulous Audrey Fleurot (Les combattantes, Spiral) is back as Morgane Alvaro in HPI, alongside an excellent cast. The eagerly awaited season 4 of French private channel TF1's record-breaking comedy/crime drama started last week.

Morgane Alvaro misses an appointment at the maternity ward of the hospital and she tries to get another one when her doctor is found murdered. She must investigate with Karadec (Mehdi Nebbou) and Commandant Fred Prigent, his successor. The team suspects two young antispeciesist activists and Daphné (Bérangère McNeese) gives Morgane a lecture about "Karmic payback". This brilliant episode has great surreal sequences and a zany chase in a zoo. Also starring Bruno Sanches (Gilles Vandraud), Marie Denarnaud (Céline Hazan), Cypriane Gardin (Théa), Noé Vandevoorde (Eliott), Cédric Chevalme (Ludovic Mullier), Thomas Scimeca as Fred Prigent and Nicolas Martinez as Judge Pierre-Emmanuel Caron.
