Ambición y mentiras

Something a little different in this drama, free running and gymnastics. Quite a realistic portrayal of young people/teenagers.

Nice to see some new actors, not the same old bunch of luvvies.

I only recognised Warren, who always gives value for money.

In my opinion the City of Liverpool is the star of the drama. Nice to see different parts of the city, not the usual grubby parts.

I stumbled across this programme by accident, I just don't understand why, Channel 4 have bought and paid for a drama to be made and not bothered advertising it!! I've watched two back to back, so far. I mustn't be greedy and binge them!

So enjoyed this drama, with a very modern & realistic setting (Free Running, drugs, human trafficking & more) & I really thought that the script & the way the characters' lives were interwoven in different ways worked extremely well. Some people complained about the accent but its real! Besides you can always switch on subtitles. Excellent acting all round but especially Kelly & Adam, however when youre watching a performance and you hate the character, that says a lot. I could hardly wait for the next episode (but I did), however was sorry when it ended. Great ending! Well Done CH 4 on a superb production.

8/10. When I saw a trailer for this I thought it probably is a bit too teenagey for me. But I gave it a go anyway. And once started it quickly became binge worthy. Starting by looking at characters in the sports world, it quickly developed into other life problems as well. The writing allows you to love and hate certain characters and also tries to express why not to judge a book by its cover. Some brilliant acting performances and the best channel 4 drama in a good while. Personally for me Adam (sonny walker) and Kelly (Eva Morgan) were outstanding. But there's lots of characters other different ages and genders will warm too as well. Give this one a chance. You won't regret it.

Update: I've now seen all 6 episodes, I gave it 8 stars because the endings of these dramas are usually weak but now it gets a 10 (and I never give 10s!). I never thought I'd type this but: It's better than Happy Valley.

None of us know what we will do in a situation until that situation arises, this drama tells us that we will probably behave very badly. One character in this drama could be described as a 'high functioning sociopath' all the rest seem like ordinary people who find themselves behaving very badly to each other.

I've seen the first 2 episodes and will definitely be watching the rest.

Good acting, strong and original plot and interesting sub-plots make this one worth watching. Be warned that the language is bad and the 'sex acts' quite realistic (traditional sex seems to have gone out of fashion).

I suppose this series was aimed at a younger crowd, but my 'kids' are 10+ years older than the characters and I very much enjoyed this. It was refreshing to watch a genre I wouldn't normally consider because of (what I perceive) as the target age of the series.

Of course, there are typical scenarios with young adults but it had REAL BONES. A very good story line and very good performances of all the actors involved.

It was nice to see. Warren Brown, who I remember in Luther, Good Cop (ANOTHER series that should have had a second season), Strike Back just to name a few.

It's very frustrating when a series ends and you're holding your breath for the next season. They literally left me/us on a cliff edge!

Why do the powers that be keep cancelling well plotted, well written, well acted series like this>> So frustrating!
