Yes - two fine episodes so far.

Thought provoking and credible.


Like Unforgotten - without the politics.

And romance...

A series? I thought you meant that horrible Whitney film.
What is it and when is it on, please?

Honey - all Sunday newspapers have a TV/Radio section providing programme details for the week ahead.

These include articles on the story lines, synopses, actors, writers, filming locations etc.

Also, the timing and channels for the broadcasts are listed - on a daily basis - and you may find it useful.

Yes, I know thank you, Barney. However, these TV sections and the magazines almost always contain spoilers, which I prefer to avoid, so I never look.

However, I do have Sky, which has a quite adequate listing service that I use, but I do tend to miss things even so, even when they are (presumably, if it is a BBC drama) advertised.

It really is extraordinarily well done; one of the best things on TV in ages.

Good start, plot, actors, locations - but the end quality is (as yet) unknown.

Mystery military man thrown into the limelight, by terrorist attempt.

Promoted to key job, with immediate and unusual levels of secret information.


Reminiscent of 24, Designated Survivor, Homeland etc. - in the US.

Also The Flaming Tower, where - allegedly, the FBI, CIA and NSA knew the Twin Towers bombers; and failed to share the facts.

In this UK series, those interagency rivalries are already creeping in.


Do they here - between Teresa, Boris, Philip etc?

With their secretive private and separate teams.

Like the others, this drama just provokes us to wonder what's really happening...

Saturday newspapers too, usually have the weeks tv listings and they are usually a bit cheaper. I remember a friend of mine used to do the listings in the mirror and basically it copied it out of the radio times.

Thoroughly enjoying this - the Sports girl (Sally?) on BBC Breakfast came up with a fascinating and clever theory; but do read this...

Also Keeley Hawes was particularly good, I thought (she always is). Is she really dead? I don't trust Jed (brilliant writer) - I think he may be playing with us. But my God it's terrific TV.
