What to say about this, sounds good on paper but so poor in execution.

Many, many 'surely that's not the way that would be done' moments but the standout for me by far was the team of French Special Forces apparently being transported in an Apache AH64...clearly a 2 seater helicopter...which the French don't use. Just lazy production.

The 8 plus rating for this has certainly been gamed - it's awful. Not cheap awful just sloppy & lazy awful which is even worse...which is why I've signed up to leave this review.

There are certain series where despite the cast, the budget, the plot etc all seemingly being in place it just doesn't work and you can tell within 30sec something isn't working...this is one such series.

Where to start?

• Characters not right or casting strange.

• Continuity as mentioned by others is ridiculous- how was that magic hair straighten not picked up?!?

• Music - again just off, really grates.

• Opening scene special effects are like something from my Amstrad CPC 464 circa 1987.

Really boils my p1ss more than it should but when the budget is clearly there, the cast is there, a story is there somewhere but no, we just can't be bothered bringing it together.
