Someone DARED call it inferior "failed" - surely a BLIND comment
You have to be focused/undisturbed/observant to watch this ( so far, I have viewed episode 1 only at 9pm). Up to par with all the other UK, BBC, PBS British mystery series .. etc. It re-broadcasts here in 2 hrs at 1am. So you can be sure that I will be tuned-in.
Like a good book, a second reading reveals twists, comments and turns of a phrase missed in the first reading. Looking forward to the other episodes (weekly here).
This is masterful, captivating, suspenseful and ladened with detail.
Little text is needed, the actors' expressions convey well the mood and foreboding of the events to come.
This series eclipses the violent/sadistic/illiterate/inane scripts we here are so often subjected to by the US media - British mystery remains unsurpassed; how can it fail ? It dominates.
Enjoy !
Best Regards
