With a political void in the North, a right wing extremist seizes control of the area. Anna faces up to her current predicament, and Robert has to answer difficult questions in Parliament about Georgia Nixon.
It's turning out to be a very bold, really interesting drama, The Cobra premise works well, but it's the combination of threads that's making it an interesting watch, it's the mix of national disaster, personal and political problems that make it work.
It's what's filling the vacuum in The North that's providing the bulk of the interest, and the chilling thing is, that it could possibly happen.
People's Justice and its leader, I think we all know who that's supposed to be, and their characterisation of its leader Scott Minett.....not hard to work out who that is.
The production quality is excellent, the motorway scenes looked terrific, a lot of time, effort and budget clearly went into this.
Charlie Carrick, David Haig and Lisa Palfrey all stood out.
Possibly the most accomplished episode so far.
8/10.
