I just watched the first three episodes. I really enjoyed it! The drama was really effective I think.

Completely agree, it's suspenseful and edge of seat stuff , 2 wars going on, one outside and one inside the cabinet

I'll be watching the last eppy later today...

Okay without going into too much detail until we've all seen it... Robert is awesome! (As always.) The show started off with a great first episode setting up the situation very well, and I was eager to see the next one. I enjoyed the show and would recommend it, but I imagine anyone who doesn't know much about British politics might find it hard to follow at times!

My major criticisms are the plot devices which lead to a lot of tense moments. I felt like some of the reactions from the public were unrealistic and scaremongering. I also thought that the reaction of the Government at times was not realistic either. There were also several quite daft moments,
Spoiler:


Anyway I really enjoyed watching it despite things like that.

I've seen the first two episodes and it does seem suspenseful and interesting so far And Bobby does great job as usual

I've seen the whole series too and on the whole I thought it was great , as Claire said, Bobby is brilliant as always

I thought there were great character scenes throughout and great lines too. I can see that is people are not that familiar with the crisis of Parliament we have atm, they might get a little lost, but I don't think it detracts from the series as a whole.

I did think the stuff in Parliament was more intriguing that what was going on one the outside, because you weren't quite sure of what was happening next..

but yes we'll delve into more when we've all seen it

Oh yes! I remember when watching thinking something he said was a great quote, but then thought 'we can't use that on !'
