Jodie Comer and Sandra Oh were locked in a bloody clinch as they filmed a dramatic fight scene on board a boat on the Thames for the last episode of the fourth and final season of Killing Eve.
The Villanelle actress, 28, and Sandra, 50, who plays detective Eve Polastri, were seen throwing their arms around each other before shots were fired in the tense stand-off.
The show’s creator hired the famous Dixie Queen replica paddle steamer for the final scene where the pair glided through London before one of them blasted the other from within their tight embrace.

Tower Bridge lifted up to allow it through before it came to a halt opposite the Tower of London. Trained killer Villanelle appeared to be waiting on the deck of the boat for Eve where they then hugged.
It is unclear from the snaps whether a blood-stained Villanelle or Eve pulled the trigger or if either was killed in the high-drama moment.
A TV insider told The Sun of the scene: ‘In the spirit of the show, it’s not clear who, if anyone, has been bumped off. And it looks like the story could have been left open for another future season.

Last month Jodie revealed that filming the last scenes for Killing Eve would be ’emotional’ as the hit series comes to an end.
Speaking on This Morning, she told hosts Holly and Phil how she was about to shoot the last two episodes of the fourth and final season.
Jodie said that she hopes the show will end on a ‘good and satisfying’ note for viewers while not completely ruling out doing a film based on the series.

The episode also tied up loose ends of the series, including revealing Konstantin as Kenny’s apparent killer. Security footage showed Konstantin (Kim Bodnia) arriving at the office and meeting with Kenny (Sean Delaney) hours before his death.
Armed with the footage, Carolyn confronted Konstantin, with Paul (Steve Pemberton), Eve and Villanelle also in attendance.
She came close to killing Konstantin but instead killed Paul, who was working for both MI6 and The Twelve. Konstantin, who had planned to leave to Cuba, left but Villanelle decided not to follow.
The episode also saw Villanelle being rejected by Carolyn after she said she was ready to become an MI6 agent. Carolyn responded: ‘What use are you to me… to anyone?,’ referring to the assassin’s desire not to kill any more.
