Who is Niko Polastri in Killing Eve?

The husband with the moustache and the bad odds · Civilians & Casualties

Niko Polastri (The husband with the moustache and the bad odds) is a character in Killing Eve, part of Civilians & Casualties. Niko Polastri teaches maths, plays bridge, cooks properly and asks only that his wife come home interested in their actual life — a reasonable request the series prices at catastrophe. As Eve's obsession deepens, Niko becomes the show's measure of collateral: threatened, displaced, shish-kebabbed adjacent, and finally exiled to a Polish shed by the simple arithmetic that everyone near Eve gets hurt. The moustache survives. The marriage, the show suggests early, never had Villanelle's odds.
