Save Me

Save me is a truly excellent watch, I must start by commending Lennie James, for his writing, acting and work rate, I get the impression he's a bit of a perfectionist, every aspect of this series is on point. The writing is fantastic, you're made to think you're watching a purely domestic drama, half way through comes the switch, and you realise you're faced with something much grittier.

It's a character driven series, with some superb performances, in particular I must compliment Stephen Graham, Alex Arnold, Suranne Jones and Lennie himself of course, all are incredible, each plays a complex character, but all with a sense of reality.

The first few episodes are casual, but once you reach part four, you're literally on a knife edge, the concluding episode is a harrowing, powerful and thought provoking watch, it brought me to tears.

I'm so glad we're getting a second series, as there are still plenty of questions. I would have to highlight some of the dialogue was muffled at times, we all seemed to be saying 'what was that' quite a lot, but that's the only minor gripe I had.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. 9/10
