Well...
Having recently watched the excellent Jodie Comer portraying Villanelle, the psychopathic female assassin in
Killing Eve and having just watched the equally excellent Ruth Wilson making a comeback as Alice Morgan, John Luther's equally conscience-free associate in
Luther Series 5 (both MASSIVELY recommended, btw)...
What is it about female psychopaths that makes such compelling and irresistible TV?
...or does that just say something about my own twisted predilections?

The latter!
I'm in the process of getting divorced from a female psychopath. Nothing irresistible or compelling about them at all!

Heh... you're probably right re predilections, though I doubt I stand alone there.
And hey, I never recommended marrying one. Mind you, dating one for a few weeks might well be a bit of a rush.
It's a bit like that stupid game, Screw, Marry, Avoid. One of those choices is a bad idea, one's a sensible idea and one might be a whole heap of fun.

Now that made me laugh... comedy gold and so overweeningly true with it.

Dunno, Sky... it's probably the "take no shit" attitude that appeals.
