In Netflix's thriller 'Dept Q', Kelly Macdonald plays Dr. Rachel Irving, a therapist with a blunt and antagonistic approach towards her client, DCI Carl Morck. The series follows Morck, a troubled detective assigned to review cold cases after surviving a shooting. Irving's unique personality disrupts the typical therapist portrayal, providing moments of humor amidst the darker themes of the investigation. As the narrative unfolds, Morck's challenging assignment in the unconventional Department Q leads to terrifying revelations, showcasing the complexities of both his and Irving's characters.
One of the good things about playing a therapist, says Kelly Macdonald with a laugh, is that you get to sit down a lot.
Morck may be the kind of troubled detective we're used to seeing in police dramas, but Irving isn't a typical therapist.
It's a shitty job working with police officers, she tells him. Another time she describes him as doolally, which in my experience is not something a typical therapist would say.
Brilliant but sidelined, Morck is tasked with reviewing cold cases, and moved to a shabby basement office that becomes known as Department Q.
