Brilliant first three episodes, but another BBC TV show that doesn't work
8 October 2018
Yet another perfectly produced piece of TV by the BBC that would have never been made by another organisation. I thought the first three episodes were superb , the fourth, so, so, then the fifth...

This is a great story that deserves a dramatisation on TV that works. For TV drama to work, the viewer needs to care about the characters and unfortunately this one falls short.

I was wrong about the central characters that I thought would drive the show, and though I know where the story is going, I no longer care about the characters left to tell the story.

It could have been brilliant!

If the BBC wants to be a world player in TV, then stop being the old patronising auntie of the past.
