What could have been just another formulaic story, treads the very well because the thoughtfully encouraged script is brought to life by sensationally characterised performances and a richly atmospheric Victorian setting that reeks with an grimly morbid discharge. Fact or fiction is the question of this horror figure? This legendary serial killer figure is the central attraction in this boldly inventive and refreshing British TV feature of the grisly exploits and humane reactions of Sweeny Todd. So now, Todd is providing her with the meat, unknown to her that they are his leftovers. Mrs Lovett has caught his eye and they form a relationship, where he helps her start up a bakery shop near his shop. Then he goes on as if nothing as happened, but these sudden outbursts soon become a pattern. He cuts up the body and chucks into the river. One day, he basically loses it after some childhood memory triggers a reaction to slit a customer's throat. Supposedly the best, as customers come and go with nothing but high praise for his fluent skills. The stoutly quiet Sweeny Todd is a well renown barber of London. 18th century London is a rottenly decayed and scummy city that has a horrific secret.
