Intrus

The lives of Sam and Rebecca are turned upside down when two young lads break into their house one night, a series of bizarre events follow.

I think some of the reviews are very unfair, particularly from those that switched off after ten minutes.

It's a mix of ok and bad, and a score of six may seem high, but I liked the basic plot outline, and I always enjoy watching Elaine Cassidy.

I'll give it a few extra points for one shallow reason, Tom Meeten is pretty cute, and it's the closest copy of Basil Fawlty that I have ever seen, his ranting and raving, and agitated behaviour are pretty amusing.

I think Elaine Cassidy and Sally Lindsay are the stars of the show, some of the other acting is a little amateur it's fair to say.

I was reminded of the Francis Durbridge dramas from the 1960's (recommended dvds) where the writer attempts to deliver twist after twist, after twist. It works to a degree.

My favourite part, the amount of times the name Angela was used.

All in all, it's not bad, 6/10.

Please do not waste 3hrs of your life with this.

The acting is diabolical - especially the husband and the mistress. It's supposed to be set in Cornwall but it's obviously filmed in Ireland.

If you're due a root canal, that would be preferable than watching this.

This had potential, It didn't deliver .Save yourself sometime ,Give it a miss ,I wish I did !!!

Another Chanel 5 gem. As bad as The Drowning if that's even possible. As I watched as much as I could stomach, I questioned the Genre of this farce drama and concluded it should be categorized as Black comedy.

Yet another psychological drama made for British TV featuring affluent, successful people who have no likeable qualities, and who stumble through their chaotic lives making one bad decision after another. One wonders how they ever became affluent and successful in the first place!

The three main characters are not only un-likeable, they are actually unpleasant, which makes having any sympathy or empathy for them just about impossible. The acting isn't great, the characters are very two-dimensional, the plot is unconvincing and the screenplay is tired, lame and unimaginative.

It's one of those series that thinks it is clever, original and 'edgy', but is in fact boring, predictable and just plain daft.
