With Intent

I really enjoyed this. I wasn't sure what to expect but I have to admit it was a good watch.

It gathers momentum nicely as it progresses and the ending did not disappoint.

Thought Charlie Broosk was really good and so was the Australian girl.

Also totally amazing house...not too sure about the cellar though!!!!

The story builds slowly, with a number of twists - but nevertheless is good, despite a big hole in the plot ending (you will have to watch it to find out what I mean by spotting it yourself!).

The acting is very good and the story well written, if a tiny bit laboured at times.

Anna and Jake have emigrated to his native Australia, leaving behind a troubled past the couple are looking for a fresh start, and hire a new Nanny, The beautiful Becky.

After the horror show that was Anne Boleyn, this really is the other end of the scale, this is a terrific four part series. You could be forgiven for thinking it's a little slow to start, and part one does amble along somewhat, but at its conclusion, and there after, it's terrific. It literally gets better as it develops.

The best thing Channel five have ever done, it's smart, stylish, sexy, intriguing, and unlike many things the channel produces, it looks fantastic, it's an incredibly sleek production.

It's a terrific tale of lust, spite and revenge, and unexpectedly, is one of the best dramas of 2021.

I loved it, 9/10.

I think that I can understand why those that hated it, hated it *and* why those who loved it, loved it.

I'm a bit of a prude, so only watched (with the much shrinking back) the first and last episodes: the flashbacks provided the rest of the story.

I loved the way the twist at the end worked out: worth putting up with Some Very Unpleasant characters along the way to see it.

I loved this show from start to finish, it really hooks you in by making you think it's going to go one way but then it goes another. Charlie Brooks is excellent and two other actors play their parts well too, at times you feel like you are on all their sides. The ending is quite twisted and I didn't see it coming. Only criticism is it could've been longer.

Charlie Brooks deserves all the awards for this though she probably won't get them due to the snobbery of critics, do they even watch the shows they review or just write them off because of who is in them?
