Intruder

Except.....it's not meant to be! Am I in London, the West Country, Northern or Southern Ireland? Are these people really actors? Did a child write the story? Channel 5 has excelled itself, in putting on a 'drama' which actually makes 'The Drowning' look average! MORE PLEASE!!

Yet another psychological drama made for British TV featuring affluent, successful people who have no likeable qualities, and who stumble through their chaotic lives making one bad decision after another. One wonders how they ever became affluent and successful in the first place!

The three main characters are not only un-likeable, they are actually unpleasant, which makes having any sympathy or empathy for them just about impossible. The acting isn't great, the characters are very two-dimensional, the plot is unconvincing and the screenplay is tired, lame and unimaginative.

It's one of those series that thinks it is clever, original and 'edgy', but is in fact boring, predictable and just plain daft.

Another Chanel 5 gem. As bad as The Drowning if that's even possible. As I watched as much as I could stomach, I questioned the Genre of this farce drama and concluded it should be categorized as Black comedy.

The story line simply makes no sense and two of the key characters act like they are on a different planet with their behaviour and lines. Also where is this set? He works at London City Radio and talks to listeners from Taunton yet lives next to the sea where all the cars are Northern Ireland registered and the streets and buildings appear to be in the Republic of Ireland. Oh dear. Watched the first episode and had reservations but tried a second episode but had to switch off after 15 mins as it descended to becoming simply dreadful to bear watching anymore.

Worst drama of 2021 so far on British TV, a complete Turkey, makes The Drowning (also C5) look top notch, which takes some doing.

It's desperately unconvincing from the opening scene and continues in the same vein on a downward spiral till it becomes laughable for all the wrong reasons.

The direction, writing and acting were all way off and as for the plot.. They even had the same family liaison officer for the victim and perpetrator's family, like that would happen..

A preposterous melodrama - avoid..
