Cold Call

The last episode was a let down. Not sure what happened with the writing, but overall, the show was entertaining and the acting was tolerable! Worth a watch!

Needed something to watch. One of us has recorded this and it looked easy viewing. We don't mind Sally Lindsay, although accept she's a pretty limited actress. She blew the rest of them off the screen, but only because the rest of the acting was some of the worst I've ever seen committed to production. Truly terrible.

The series kind of went downhill from a 7 to a 3, so my rating reflects that. Silly escapism and certainly not unwatchable. A preposterous plot, but you know what you're going to get, so watching this is a bit like reading a trashy novel on holiday..... you know, the type you wouldn't dream of displaying on your bookcase afterwards, or recommending to a friend!

Had all the potential of a hit great cast for a great topic but unfortunately it has channel 5 all over it.

Piss poor production, worse editing a story that as pointless aspects that detract from the main issue and a Mark Addy that looks like he's put on a 90°c boil wash for 5 days then bundled in the dryer for the weekend.

Stopped watching 20 minutes in the 3rd episode and skimmed the 4th episode, the Christmas ads were OK

A good storyline which started off well but oh my it sure did go downhill fast. Unbelievable plot twists, caricature "heavies" b movie dialogue and more besides. Each episode was more absurd than the one before. However I stuck it out simply because it was so bad it was good !

While we were watching the second episode of this my wife said "This is brilliant, I wonder why it isn't on ITV3?" When we watched the final episode 4 we both knew why. The writing went off the rails.
