Angela Black

Don't get the appalling reviews on here. I quite enjoyed binging this. Solid acting and easy to watch . It's not a classic but give it a go . Just don't expect to be wowed!

This could have been a 3 episode series and all the better for it. The idea is OK if a bit done to death, but the writing is just dull, unrealistic and assumes the audience are dull witted.

TV dramas seem to be getting more and more plodding at the moment.

Is this the slowest drama on television? Three episodes in and still no further forward than episode one. Joanne Froggatt is a good actress but it's too similar to Liar. Overall it's too dull for its own good.

I do think that Joanne Froggatt is a good actress, but it seems she always playing the woman who has been raped as in Downton Abby and Liar. Now with this she playing almost the same person this time just a woman who has an abusive husband. I would like to see her playing something different however. This show is not bad but the PI just seems off in couple ways, and I am unsure if he is a villain or a good guy!

A new drama from the Williams Brothers, writers of Liar, Baptiste and The Missing, is always worth a look.

In the opening episode the excellent Joanne Froggatt appears to have the perfect life as Angela Black, a Grand Designs pad, a charming husband and lovely kids, but plot twist - there's a dark secret..

Nice production values all round, but for me it was a bit too formulaic and the central relationship wasn't quite right. The main problem plot wise was the private investigator, he just didn't ring true, his confessional pitch to her and obsessive determination to help wasn't credible.

Not terrible, not great, an average potboiler.
