Wired

With such a stellar cast, it sounded really promising. The plot was messy, the script really amateurish and the ending as unclear as most of the storyline.

There was too much gratuitous and unnecessary violence and there were no subtle or clever parts in any of the three episodes.

It was as though the writer's main plan was to confuse the viewers further and further and then he or she either didn't bother to untangle the mess or because they had got everything in such a horrendous muddle they weren't actually able to!!! The actors did the best they could but one can't make the proverbial purse out of a sow's ear!!! Nothing was explained and so many things seemed absolutely senseless or irrelevant. Please bring this great cast back but with a MUCH better series, to make it worth their time and to ensure you actually do impress your viewers and critics and have a series that ITV can be proud of! A TV series that will go down in history as a major success!

Corruption in the world of high Finance. When a big deal is on the table, all and sundry are in for the kill.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, I must have watched it when it first went out, and liked it, but having just rewatched it, I absolutely loved it. Three episodes flew by, you think something is happening, there is a lot of misdirection.

It's loaded with twists and turns, it's one of those dramas where you really don't know who's who, and exactly who's up to what, you will be left guessing until the final scenes.

The acting is excellent, Toby Stephens, Riz Ahmed, Sacha Dhawan and Laurence Fox, however the true star of the show is Jodie Whittaker, who really shows how good she is.

Slick, stylish and exciting. 9/10.

Excellent crime drama starring many familiar faces including Jason Watkins, Toby Stephens and Jodie Whittaker as the lead. Louise is a hard up single mum working in a bank who has the opportunity to earn some exrtra money by simply opening a bogus account for Phillip Manningham, played by Laurence Fox, who represents a ruthless crime syndicate. Louise accidentally meets Toby Stephens in the club Fox runs, not knowing he is a Police Officer investigating the dodgy characters at said club. After an intimate evening with Stephens she discovers he is a cop and what follows is a fast moving series of events leading up to the theft of £250m from a prominent businessman played by Gary Lewis. A lot happens in this three part series, without any padding or waffle. Recommended.

I saw the trailer and thought it looked good, a bank fraud is a great subject given the times. Laurence Fox and Toby Stephens are both from acting dynasties but I can't believe they read the script of this three hour long turkey. It went from bad to worse so consistently that I gave up in despair before the end of the second episode. It was just absolute rubbish, how a TV company can finance something so awful says it all. ITV shares are at an all time low and so are some of the awful rubbish they are turning out as drama. The actress who played the leading role was possibly the worst I have seen in a long time, but the script was so far fetched I doubt Meryl Streep would have looked much better.

"Wired" is a wonderful TV miniseries from England, starring Jodie Whittaker and Toby Stevens.

Whittaker plays a not totally honest bank worker, Louise Evans, whose best friend involves her in a large-scale fraud operation. She is to set up a false bank account for a tycoon about to sell his business; the thieves, some of who are already at the bank, will funnel the sale money into this fake account and transfer it out of the country.

Louise originally refuses to get involved, but the man who approaches her (Laurence Fox) has blackmail on her -- she and someone else once stole 3000 pounds, plus she has a daughter, Erica, that the thieves can use as a way to threaten her. Louise unknowingly becomes involved with a police detective (Toby Stephens) who knows what she's doing and wants her to cooperate with the police.

Suspenseful and nerve-wracking, this is a very exciting drama with a few great twists along the way. It's not the warmest production you'll ever see -- Louise isn't a particularly likable character, though she can sure think on her feet; Laurence Fox of "Inspector Lewis" fame plays an awful human being -- well, nobody is very nice, except perhaps Stephens, but words like tough and no-nonsense fit him better.

"Wired" held my interest throughout because one really doesn't know who is working with whom, or what's going to happen. It holds one's attention right until the very end.
