Informer

Political, personal and a fantastic example of modern television's quality 'Informer' was amazing to be entirely honest. Twisty and masterfully edited the presentation was astounding and full of great performances its only qualms is a bit of a pacing issue cramming a mass amount into only 6 episodes. Other than that I cant speak highly enough and as a one off season it's a piece you must watch, cant recommend enough.

This is the best British crime series I have seen since I really can't recall. The plot is genius, the writers have simply done a perfect job, the camera work is brilliant, and it all just oozes of a director, cast and crew having a hell of a time. The main actors are basically fantastic, with main character actor Nabhaan Rizwan making a highly believable portray of a young English Pakistani, who develops from an ordinary youngster into a very life experienced man. Rizwan is utterly outstanding with his interpretation and must have made quite a breakthrough with this role. The only reasons for not giving top score to this production are sadly and only a few some less credible acting performances.

I always believe in simplicity when it comes to series that highlight current situations . Informer does so, though a bit slow, its worth the wait cause of the suspense. Be it mild at times...what matters most to me is whats the bigger picture. I cant wait to watch the upcoming episodes. Yes...had to fight spoiling it for you.

Restore some faith in broken Britain, in multicultural Britain. Paddy Considine is superb! A standout performance for me. All the cast are superb, especially the main household Asian actors. The story to me was better and is a lot more original and unpredictable than The Bodyguard (a recent bbc hit) As per, the early episodes are excellent although the final may seem an anti-climax to some viewers - still a very unexpected hit. Series 2 incoming?

I discovered this on iPlayer and binge watched it in a couple of days. It's a very well done, original, thought provoking and very well acted drama. The lead actor is phenominal in his role as is the actor Roger Jean Nsengiyuma (he gave me a young 2Pac vibes). Great to see some young talent emerging on BBC. I love Jessica Raine, but she is in danger of being type cast. Her character was no different from the character she played in 'The Last Post'. A bored and lonely housewife. She can do better! I recommend this show because it felt very real, it is original and a day later I am still thinking about it. I hope the BBC will do a second season! This show is much much better than 'The Bodyguard'.
