This is a "Top-notch" show! I really enjoyed this series and how it unfolded. I wish it was longer than 2 episodes. I will have to read Iain Banks novel and perhaps his other novel "The Crow Road".

The actors Christian Cooke (Stewart Gilmour), Charlotte Spencer (Ellie Murston), Kevin Mains (Fraser Murston), Jack Greenlees (Norrie Murston), Chris Fulton (Ferg), Naomi Battrick (Grier Murston), Brian Gleeson (Powell Imrie), and, Samuel Robertson (Callum Murston) were portrayed excellently and so believably.

Not to mention how handsome the lead actor (Christian Cooke) with his piercing blue eyes are, and lets not forget to mention the supporting male cast as well (Chris Fulton, Samuel Robertson).

Now the relationship that you see between Ellie and Stewart through the flashbacks is nice to see(it lets you know how they got to where they are in the present). Also, Stewart's relationship with his friend's Ferg and *Cal(whom Stewart came back to Stonemouth his childhood home to be at *his funeral).

I feel that it's a story based on secrets and lies that are behind the death of Stewart's best friend Callum, which prompts him to come home two years later after being chased away.

You can sense a little tension in the air between the Murtson's and the MacAvett's; plus the way the father & brother's of Ellie (Don Murston, Norrie Murston, and Fraser Murston) feel towards Stewart returning home after two years.

Will Stewart be able to find out what happened to his best friend before it's too late?
