Save Me

Have just finished watching this series and have to say its one of the best british series i have seen for a while. The whole cast is perfect and the acting superb - Especially from Lennie James, Stephen Graham, Alice May Feetham and Suranne Jones who really put in powerful performances.

Episode 1 starts off a little slow but stick with it , the final 2 episodes are really tense and gripping to watch and the bond between Lennie James and everyone that surrounds him (especially Stephen Grahams character) is something special on screen.

Its no secret that Lennie James has confirmed series 2, there are a few lose ends unresolved in episode 6 that some people were a bit disapointed with but i think it was clever writing from Lennie and the whole feel of the show was gritty, tense and brilliantly done. Really looking forward to more episodes and would love to see Lennie write and act in more gritty powerfully acted shows like this in the future

Brilliant acting from Lennie James and Stephen Graham. Based around south London, this has a hint of nil by mouth about it. Filmed with a gritty darkness . Really enjoyable, even though the subject matter is depressing, well worth a watch.

Captures the characters seen every day in London well.

Subject is a dark matter but relevant in the world we live in today.

Lennie James shows there is more to his talent than just killing Zombies on the Walking Dead. His character is very charismatic, and well supported by a tense Suranne Jones and the always watchable Stephen Graham.

Season two is as dramatic and compelling as season one. Same characters, well drawn, with a couple of additions. Jason Flemyng is wonderful in an underwritten part, and both young girls (Grace and Jody) put in powerful performances. This is a great drama however it does bug me in the extreme that the final episodes of both series offered nothing but set ups for future subsequent series. Please offer your audience some kind of resolution, or extend the number of episodes to do the same. This trickery is very off-putting and disappointing.

I must admit I love crime dramas. Courtroom and police dramas are my thing so I can be pretty selective in what I watch. I've recently been disappointed by some of the series coming out from the UK (Trauma, Next of Kin and Collateral). They were too predictable and didn't leave me curious. Save Me on the other hand was incredible. The actors Lennie James, Stephen Graham, Alice May Feetham and Suranne Jones did an excellent job . I'm not going to give anything away, but if you are looking for a top notch crime drama with real characters which have you hanging on the edge of your sit then this is the one to watch.
