The Nest

The characters have a great depth and they slowly get revelead to the viewer with good plot twists! After episode 2 is hard to know yet if the main male character is a good character or a villain... good suspence and "misteri" which will make you curious to watch the new episode!

Firstly, the acting is phenomenal. It's not often I see a programme where every character is acted superbly, we feel every ounce of their emotions and despite the short 5 part series, we actually develop feelings for each character.

The series is exciting, gripping and full of twists, yet sometimes I found the show infuriating. There are times you see Kaya treated rather oddly by Dan and Emily - I understand it could be possible for Emily to be so pedantic and over the top, however I did find it weird for Dan to be so aggressive towards Kaya. There were times I felt a simple conversation would have sorted the predicament so I did occasionally feel the script was unrealistic.

Overall however I thoroughly enjoyed the show - the first four episodes were superb yet I did find the last episode a bit slow and tedious, however the first four episodes more than made up for that.

If you're debating what to watch, then I'd really recommend this programme. You'll enjoy it.

For a drama that touched upon a number of tough subjects, it ends with a sense of hope and fulfilment which is often missing in UK TV dramas.

Had it been a Hollywood film, Kaya would be a psychotic murderer and the plot would have been violent. Instead, there was the power of love and the hope of redemption. The soundtrack should not be ignored. It was lovely and haunting.

Entertaining, but the fact that most of the characters have such special circumstances makes it less believable and makes me lose focus on the main story and creates the need for several prequels that would surely be more interesting to me:

• EMILY, prequel title: The princess. A typical person with a vocation for the center of the world. Once something happened to her and, consequently, life owes her the fact that everything is as she wishes. I hated the character for being a 'posturing person' and the actress left me cold.

• DAN, prequel title: The criminal. I can understand what he did in his past, but boy, ending up in the brick sector, I am not going to comment much more ... The evolution and logic of the character seems quite credible and I liked the actor.

• KAYA, prequel title: Opportunity and improvement: poor kid, bad life from the beginning, with a mother more than despicable. A survivor. Logical evolution of a strong character. Convincing work of the actress.

Even more could be added, since the secondary characters are also endowed with history: Dan's sister and nephew, Kaya's mother (excellent character for excellent actress, perhaps the best of the series) and Kaya's social worker ...

In summary, the surrogacy theme and the power play that this can bring is well developed, but the only thing in the series that I consider pure gold is when it shows us how you could let yourself go through life if you let others decide for you.
