7. The Brilliant Supporting Cast

As with previous episodes, the show's main supporting cast continue to impress, especially a vengeful, conflicted Moses Ingram, and a sweet, strong-willed Vivien Lyra Blair.

Surprisingly, though, this week's best supporting players are Joel Egerton and Bonnie Piesse as Owen and Beru Lars, who're thrown into the action as a raging Reva launches an attack to kill Luke and gain some kind of victory over Darth Vader.

Protective and scene-stealing, Egerton and Piesse are on fantastic form, balancing thrilling action sequences with moments of genuine heart.

Some actors are given little to work with in Part VI - Kumail Nanjiani and O'Shea Jackson Jr amongst them - but their characters are but a blip on the episode's radar, and the series-best work of Ingram, Blair, Egerton and Piesse easily make up for their shortcomings.
