The Invisibles

As I write, 1st series has been shown on BBC 1...

What a "Feel Good" show! This is just so entertaining, It's been a long time since I can tell the day of the week purely by counting down the days to the next episode! What a fantastic cast too with Jenny Augutter looking great and so "her". The rogues that the Invisibles are, you still can't help sympathising and backing them. If you haven't see it before, you haven't lived but don't worry, you can pick it up at anytime and know exactly whats going on. The Invisibles is finally a show where we are back to the good old days of simple family entertainment.

Aggravating story and a flawed premise right from the start makes this series unwatchable. If our heroes were England's best thieves in their day, what we have now are two complete incompetents. Maybe because of their advanced age they are in the early stages of delusional senility. Do not waste your time. I am not sure who the producers are but if they had even given the scripts a quick read they might have brought in someone who could at least plug the gaping plot-holes. It is a lazy and totally uncaring approach to series making. If we have stars and a decent location - why clutter it up with a plot ? Please do not insult us with a second season of this drivel.

I have now watched this miniseries twice: once when it was first broadcast on TV, and again this year - 15 years later, in 2023.

It is as good now as it was back in 2008.

Funny, touching, and dramatic. Pathos is blended with comedy to just the right level. We believe in all the characters. It's a chance to see human nature in all its colours, and laugh all the while at the guys' antics . . .

Anthony Head and Warren Clarke spar off each other to great comedic effect, Jenny Agutter adds sass & style. And the younger Dean Lennox Kelly adds his own edge. Several star guests give depth to the finished product. Overall, true casting genius.

All-round entertainment. Oh how marvellous a TV drama can be, when the whole team - actors, writers, et al - put it together so well.

Unexpected 'Jolly good fun' !

This show is so well written and the music is spot on. A well rounded and talented cast puts it over the top. It's really well done; I can't stop watching it.

Considering this is not the type of show I would normally watch, I am not certain how to describe it or what to compare it to.

Just here to say it's great !

Utter tripe. Totally boring. Terrible premise. Terrible acting.

I couldn't watch even one whole episode.

Probably family members giving it 7 out of 10.
