I thoroughly enjoyed this: it's a fascinating look at the sometimes contentious relationship between two neighboring countries, with a long and complicated history. The characters are, for the most part, relatable and believable but the brightest one is Pauline Collins. She shines in her role as Ambassador Harriett Smith who - on several occasions - has to walk the line between her personal and professional beliefs. I saw this as a child growing up in Ireland, and recently re-watched it on Prime Video and it was almost as good as I remember. Some of the stories are a bit far-fetched and a stretch, but others are very believable and relatable to today.
