Helen's great, but then she's Helen. The problem is the script. There are gaping plot holes, irrational moves, and a predictable U-turn ending. Bail is never granted in murder cases, especially when the perpetrator has a psychiatric history. At the end she's let into the crime room (!) and is taken home. Unfortunately she's still guilty of stabbing her husband to death without witnesses. If only life were so simple. About the action scenes, they should take a lesson from Le Carre. Tension isn't created by having people run around like their hair's on fire. That's not gripping, it's hysterical and doesn't make good viewing. Tension is created gradually by skilful plot changes but they obviously didn't understand that. Shame, but there we are. But I admit to watching it to the end, just to see what would happen, so I'll give it that :-)
