Save Me

Save me is a truly excellent watch, I must start by commending Lennie James, for his writing, acting and work rate, I get the impression he's a bit of a perfectionist, every aspect of this series is on point. The writing is fantastic, you're made to think you're watching a purely domestic drama, half way through comes the switch, and you realise you're faced with something much grittier.

It's a character driven series, with some superb performances, in particular I must compliment Stephen Graham, Alex Arnold, Suranne Jones and Lennie himself of course, all are incredible, each plays a complex character, but all with a sense of reality.

The first few episodes are casual, but once you reach part four, you're literally on a knife edge, the concluding episode is a harrowing, powerful and thought provoking watch, it brought me to tears.

I'm so glad we're getting a second series, as there are still plenty of questions. I would have to highlight some of the dialogue was muffled at times, we all seemed to be saying 'what was that' quite a lot, but that's the only minor gripe I had.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. 9/10

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.

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.

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

Lennie James and Stephen Graham are excellent. It's a slow starter so don't give up after ep 1. Sky allowing you to download all 6 eps, if you can't wait for the weekly show. I found it a slightly disappointing at the end, with a few lose ends not resolved, series 2 maybe?
