Truelove

I found the story excellent! Top notch!exciting, thrillish and very realistic.

I think it is very under rated. And it's certainly not only a thriller story for 65+ people, at the contrary, I advise you to watch it if you are younger. I am 50 myself.

The series has a great ability to maintain a certain sense of humor even in the most seemingly dramatic situations. Some elements of black comedy there. The actors and acting are just excellent! Wow! Big aplause!

It is a very interesting approach that does not attempt to reflect on euthanasia from an emotional perspective, but uses it to build a thriller with mature characters that changes tone as it develops.

It deals with the very dark subject of death, and when knowing you have a terminal illness and understandably - want to choose your own time.

The music is also magnificent!, As you can see, I have nothing negative to say about this wonderful and exciting series. Don't miss it!

No negatives from me, just don't miss it!

Finally a story relevant for people over 40! This is a really good story, and a mystery snuck in for good measure. The acting was a bit stiff in some spots, and it is NOT a comedy. The best part - all the main characters, except one, is over 60. There are some holes in it, and the young police officer is annoying, that's why it only gets an 8. It could have had a better ending where Justice would have been served and Death With Dignity could have been preserved. As we all know justice and the law are two very different things. This has an Awesome soundtrack and it's not about pretty young people. It's more realistic in it's approach and it is a great watch for people that have to deal with their mortality - which is ALL of us. Whilst I'm not in that age bracket, I appreciate what it would take to deal with Death With Dignity. Highly recommend for the story, cinematography and realistic way it deals with it's subject. Would have like to see the younger person be more adult, though. A 28 year old should be way more mature. It's good enough to watch twice.

Truelove starts with a question that nobody wants to answer - could you and should you kill a friend if they asked you to? But it doesn't linger. The story moves forwards at a pace that keeps the weight of its moral quandary off of the shoulders of the viewer. It's comical, nostalgic, heartwarming and fun despite its subject matter.

The story, told through a stellar cast, is well balanced and constantly developing through each episode. It resists the temptation to be carried too far into any specific genre whilst giving the audience enough familiarity on which to hang their reference points. Police procedural, thriller, drama, it has hints of each without compromising on its highly original concept. The show strikes a pleasing balance between entertainment and stimulation whilst opening up discussion with viewers both young and old(er).

Sue Johnston is amazing - I take my hat off to her she still looks amazing and I recently read she's not had a long term partner for decades (She could've had me at any point) which makes this even more poignant really seeing the married long term dynamic.

Lindsay Duncan is up there, she's very good at playing cool as a cucumber and again still looks great.

The whole cast we've seen over the decades on our everyday screens but that doesn't sully the bond that's quickly built between the main group.

It's very close to home for me and I did shed a few tears, my own Grandma has Dementia and I've been seeing this - I pray lovely Sue remains sharp as a tack and it's never too late for her to find love (you don't have to share a house - as per the article I just read!) I watched The Cockfields sitcom and it then lead me here in 2025 so I'm glad for that.

I got hooked about 10 minutes in due to the stellar cast. This moves slowly but in a world of fast everything, this isn't a bad thing.

This story is so pertinent with the current demands for assisted dying and the wonderful Esther Rantzen appeals.

I am currently up to the end of episode two and the last scene broke me, the first class actress Sue Johnston played this scene mesmerisingly.

I realise that the rest is going to be a hard watch but the story telling takes you along slowly with it.

I'm age 57 and this is something that interests me greatly.

It will make you think deeply about the subject matter which is covered in a beautiful and highly sensitive manner.
