Red Election

I have to agree with those of you who wrote that this is not by any means a brilliant show. However, I found the story line interesting enough to make me want to follow it through and I did actually enjoy it for that reason though I did have to allow for the far from adequate acting and dialog!

At the end of the tenth episode I had to check several times that it was, in fact, the final episode. So much was left unresolved. Felt a little like i'd wasted the best part of 10 hours of my life I will never get back! Disappointing.

God help Britain if its security was in the hands of the inept clowns who make up the secret service in this show. The "tension" and storyline relies on the bad guys continually and unbelievably evading the Keystone Cop-esque security forces. Appalling stuff.

Really liked this show but wish the threads were tied up unless there's another season.

Although I found the main character Beatrice a bit annoying at times.

I really enjoyed this show, for once the secret service isn't depicted as full of sexy genius super heroes, they are all flawed human beings that make mistakes and then get on with it. I like the female lead, Beatrice, but the Danish one was so annoying I wanted to punch her. Some viewers were put off by the fact the main character was female but frankly, it added to the relationship between her and her Scottish contact who was clearly infatuated with her. Beatrice was strong but she screwed up, so did all the others. I loved Spooks, and I loved Stephen Dillane in GoT so I was interested in seeing him in another role after Stannis. I hope there's a Season 2, I'll be watching!
