You Don't Know Me

I don't understand how people can write a valid review after only watching one episode. It does definitely get better and there are many unexpected events that follow. It's not as predictable as one might initially think. It is a bit if slow burner but enough happens during the build up to keep you intrigued. The acting is good enough but not outstanding and the characters perhaos a little cliche but don't let that put you off. Overall I found it to be an enjoyable mid week suspense series. Not all set in the court room thank goodness as others imply. However, the ending was a tiny bit annoying but I suppose I can see the logic in it.

Really good drama, if you have a reason to watch 'You don't know me' then watch it for the superb acting by these young actors. Samuel Adewunmi is an amazing actor and I wager that he is going to be a huge star in the future.

The unusual structure reduces the thriller element that might have been, but it lends depth and weight to the story, leaving you unsure as to what to believe until the final episode. That kept us watching until the end and we finished the series glad that we had done so.

A man on trial accused of murder and facing overwhelming evidence against him decides at the last moment to sack his barrister and give his own summing up speech in his defence.

It's an intriguing premise, adapted by Tom Edge from the acclaimed novel by Imran Mahmood. We travel back in time to see what really happened, slowly revealed over four episodes.

I thought the production values were top notch in terms of direction and photography with Birmingham filling in for London. The writing was very good with some great dialogue and a very strong plot that intrigued me. The cast was excellent and I'd agree with other reviewers that lead Samuel Adewunmi is a young actor with a very bright future ahead of him.

Solid 7/10 for me, felt punchy, fresh and interesting and it was well made.

Gripping drama that started a little slow but in the end had me hooked. If the ending was better it could have been a 9. Acting was amazing and the overall aesthetic was incredible. Felt very real and authentic.
