Estação Temple

Watched & enjoyed. Good cast. Good locations. Good story. Yes, it's maybe a bit far fetched - but, that's drama. At times it is somewhat 'comedic'. Looking forward to S2

Weird. The first series was a little far fetched but worked well. Strong is an excellent actor and the rest of the cast was equally good. But the second series...what a disappointment! One of those shows that makes you angry with how stupidly people behave. So 8 stars for series one, 2 stars for series two.

S1 Interesting and chaotic but still a good watch. S2 looking pretty decent until episode 5 and 6. I couldn't even finish E6 as it was absolutely pathetic. This is supposed to be about a surgeon and and scientist (main 2 characters in those episodes, but they would have made Dumb and Dumber look like Harvey/Nobel Prize winners. I was very surprised as Mark Strong is a superb actor, did he see the final cut? Did the writer go for a toilet break and leave Joey Essex to finish the story whilst Danny Dyer took over the production?

If your IQ is above average, steer well clear of this utter nonsense, the base was there but the writers, producers, directors and actors lost the plot and got bored and went down the pub and lost interest in making something watchable. Felt a bit like a bunch of painters being paid early for a job, then deciding they would go down the pub and then forgetting the address of the job!

Without two of Britain's finest actor's Daniel Mays and Mark Strong at the helm then I thinkTemple would sink without a trace. However such is the chemistry between these two it makes a ridiculous plot into a very entertaining show.

It really should be reclassified as a comedy drama, as this unlikely double act lurch from one crisis after another, season two especially has some really funny moments as they try desperately to avoid mobsters, the police and others threatening to expose them in return for money.

Don't take this to seriously and enjoy the ride. 7/10.

This show is great fun. Completely implausible however such is the great acting from Mark Strong and the great cast that it is a joy to watch. Just don't think about it too much and enjoy the ride and the laughs!
