The Split

And incredible drama. I have gone through every emotion whilst watching this, it's been an amazing drama from season 1 till 2. Understand the ins and outs of a working family, and the flaws of a marriage! Couldn't give it credit enough!!

I'm not a big fan of law shows, but I like Nicola Walker so I thought I'd give it a shot. It was good from the start but by episode 3 I simply loved it. The characters, the acting and the writing is all well done. When season one ended I assumed my streaming service would go straight to season 2. That was my only disappointment-I can't find where to stream season 2 : (

Anything with Nicola Walker has to be top class, Last Tango for example.

Lots to like about this drama. I loved the directing and screenplay, and most of the acting is excellent. In particular the lead actors were uniformly good. But a special mention of Elizabeth Roberts who played Liv and somehow managed to copy the body language of Hannah her mother.

So why not higher than 7? Quite a bit, really. I found the intensity of the lawyers' personal lives increasingly annoying. The twists and turns of Hannah and Nathan's marriage were especially gruesome. Will she run off with Christie or won't she. Eventually I could hardly care.

But it was worth persisting.

A tour de force by Walker, with an outstanding supporting cast. The show becomes more and more of a soap opera as it goes on, but every once in a while there is a scene where she just blows you away.
