Cracking television with incredible writing and fantastic acting. Jonas Armstrong showed he's far better than Robin Hood. Well done BBC and all involved. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

That should read 'our thoughts are with you'... Harry Patch and Henry Allingham should have both received state funerals. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

For once, a new show with great acting and scripts, and puts it's message across forcefully and without patronising or lecturing.... Superb.
A pearl in a sea of shite!

Meanwhile, the soaps continue to insult the intelligence of the viewer blatantly (am I the only one who sees the Maria/Tony storyline in Corrie as some kind NuLabour style test as to how much rubbish people will accept these days?)

My favourite scene was the argument with the other squaddie who said his mental problems were far worse than the obvious facial ones... brilliant and clever.
Also the wonderful Muslim taxi driver who only cared that the boy should live - a superb touch.

How fantastic to watch a drama that actually assumed intelligence in the viewer.

I hope to god it gets the ratings it deserves.

Though writer JMG has vowed not to write any more 'The Street' in protest at ITV's shrinking of their Manchester film department (ITV actually make the show and own DVD rights). Incidently for those who missed it 'The Works' discount booksellar have the season 1/2 boxset for less than £5!
