Intruder

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.

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

Worst drama of 2021 so far on British TV, a complete Turkey, makes The Drowning (also C5) look top notch, which takes some doing.

It's desperately unconvincing from the opening scene and continues in the same vein on a downward spiral till it becomes laughable for all the wrong reasons.

The direction, writing and acting were all way off and as for the plot.. They even had the same family liaison officer for the victim and perpetrator's family, like that would happen..

A preposterous melodrama - avoid..

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.

So much potential where did it all go wrong? Probably the wrong pen and the acting school of wood!
