- Excellent writing - fantastic ensemble acting 4.5 stars
This is gripping, intelligent, rewarding drama. I must have been out of the country when this was on and I only found out about it through Amazon. Thanks reviewers! I really enjoyed it and the only reason for four and a half stars rather than five is that, like some other reviewers, I found the ending not as satisfying as the rest.

- Superb
Back in 2003 the BBC asked the award-winning scriptwriter Paul Abbott to write something 'big' for them. Abbott, who'd cut his teeth on the UK's biggest soap, Coronation Street, before creating his own shows such as Touching Evil, Clocking Off and Linda Green, was just about to become the superstar of British scriptwriting, with both his BBC project and another that was in development at the time for C4, Shameless, which was about to launch him into the stratosphere.

Rating: - Great, save the last 20 minutes!
Being a politics junkie and great fan of the West Wing, and having heard positive references to this series on Front Row many times, I thought it was time to see what the fuss was about. And largely I was not disappointed. It is taught, superbly written, well directed, and believable, until the last 20 minutes, when the wrap up/finale is completely implausible, and so ultimately a let down.
