Not quite sure why this has been getting such a kicking. Some criticism of Elizabeth Moss's accent, which I really don't understand - I'm British and it sounds fine to me.

Anyway - this is a high quality thriller, kind of like a cross between Tehran, Jack Ryan and Homeland. Acting is excellent, plot is good (if you excuse the odd McGuffin such as a special electronic device that can magically eaves-drop on everything) and locations are top notch.

I almost skipped this, but decided to give the first episode a watch and was drawn in immediately to the protagonist and the action-filled opening sequences. Give it a watch - you'll be glad you did. :)

It doesn't help that I've always found Catherine Tate to be about as funny as cancer, but I was willing to give this new show a go.

Unfortunately, it's one of the worst sitcoms I've ever seen in my life. It's like some awful blast from the past when comedy involved around, just being excruciatingly vile to everybody.

I don't know whether it's because the script for the show was written by Catherine Tates partner, but I find it staggering that the BBC decided to greenlight this nightmarish disaster.

Do yourself a favour and watch literally anything else other than this horrendous excuse for a TV show.
