You Don't Know Me

I almost didn't watch this, the initial bits appeared to be a bit too much of the "fam, bruv, innit" for my personal taste. I am so glad I stuck with it. Plenty to it, not an overly happy subject which I initially thought would be like watching paint dry being courtroom based. It was really well acted and kept me watching.

Well done BBC.

The unusual structure reduces the thriller element that might have been, but it lends depth and weight to the story, leaving you unsure as to what to believe until the final episode. That kept us watching until the end and we finished the series glad that we had done so.

I don't understand how people can write a valid review after only watching one episode. It does definitely get better and there are many unexpected events that follow. It's not as predictable as one might initially think. It is a bit if slow burner but enough happens during the build up to keep you intrigued. The acting is good enough but not outstanding and the characters perhaos a little cliche but don't let that put you off. Overall I found it to be an enjoyable mid week suspense series. Not all set in the court room thank goodness as others imply. However, the ending was a tiny bit annoying but I suppose I can see the logic in it.

Really good drama, if you have a reason to watch 'You don't know me' then watch it for the superb acting by these young actors. Samuel Adewunmi is an amazing actor and I wager that he is going to be a huge star in the future.

It amuses me that some reviews say this is boring, tripe and a waste of time. Perhaps this says more about the attention spans of these reviewers than it does about the writing, direction and acting. It has to said that it's not as fast paced as some series but in many respects it benefits from this.

Samuel Adewunmi And the rest of the actors to a great job, Adewunmi being a real standout performance.

Give it a chance and you will enjoy it.
