Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })River (2015) is a six-part Mini Series starring Stellan Skarsgård and Nicola Walker.DI John River (Skarsgård) is a Swedish-born London detective who works with his colleague, DS Jackie 'Stevie' Stevenson, a chirpy Cockney with a penchant for karaoke and takeaway food. There's just one problem...three weeks ago, she was murdered and so the Stevie in his head is basically one giant hallucination. And she's not the only one in his mind...victims, suspects and some Victorian serial killer called Thomas Cream (Eddie Marsan) also pop up at random.As he tries to solve Stevie's murder, he has to deal with all of these 'ghosts' as well...

Ambiguous Situation: It's not clear at first if the manifests are a purely visual metaphor for River's thoughts that effectively exist only for the audience or if they are hallucinations that River experiences on some sensory level. It's later clarified that they're the latter during one of his sessions with a police psychiatrist.

Cannot Spit It Out: River was very much in love with Stevie, and was about to tell her but she died before he received the opportunity. He finally manages to in the last episode.

Da Chief: Chrissie Read, one of the closest things River has to a friend, and who is frustrated by the misogynist views that police only advance by having "balls."

Afraid to Hold the Baby
 River / int_f7916eb9
comment
Afraid to Hold the Baby: John River is afraid to hold his new partner, Ira's, baby out of fear that he'll drop it. This may be a Casting Gag as Stellan Skarsgård has eight children, but it also represents River's loneliness and isolation from others.
