    Anyone else enjoying this? It's a good little thriller, with nice performances. Trevor Eve is (with obvious effort) reigning himself in and cow-towing to his boss, played by Helen Baxendale and Emma Fielding is extremely good. I'm hooked!

    I agree. It's also good to see that Scottish actor doing something other than "guid with fuid"!

    Yes it is good, I am especially pleased that John Hannah is in it now, he`s one of my favorites.

    Anyone know how many episodes there are going to be?

    It's a three parter FG... but I saw Trevor Eve on breakfast TV last week and he said if it's sufficiently well received there'll be more.

    Thanks Tonch. Yes, I did wonder if they would carry on with different stories if this one hit the viewing figures. I think they would have to really spend time developing characters if they did that though, i.e Trevor Eve`s family and his relationship with the Helen Baxendale chararcter too.

    John Hannah is developing a nice line in playing total bastards.

    He was one of the best things about "Spartacus: Blood & Sand", playing Battiatus - the ruthless, social climbing, gladiator school owner (imagine a sort of homicidal Brian Clough). It's interesting that the producers have brought his character back for the prequel series 2 - they might have been in trouble if they hadn't.
