The South Westerlies

And yet, I found this series charming and a refreshing change from things blowing up and cardboard characters. Nicely paced. Well acted. A most pleasant surprise.

Another reviewer hit the nail on the head - a total shambles. There's some beautiful scenery but the script is appalling, much of the acting is amateurish, and the characters charmless.

It is poorly made daytime TV; its entertainment value is on par with watching paint dry (though, watching the paint would likely be of greater therapeutic value and more stimulating).

The 5 is for Orla Brady alone. Sad to see her acting in something so dismal. The non-existent story and dodgy acting are made only worse by a number of the Irish cast putting on dodgy Irish accents which they don't even commit to.

No redeeming value, requires scrubbing from the mind and any digital archives. Wasteful and purposeless for all involved, for the cast, the crew and the viewer alike.

Hard to believe good actors could sign up for this rubbish. Brady and Bergin must need the Money Script is so predictable and characters real embarrassing stereotypes. Didn't even film it in Cork! Was expecting better. Won't be watching any further episodes.

Great scenery, fun and probably predictable story and nice looking people. I want something that's fun to watch, especially when the world has its many complications and this is a nice getaway.

All round awful plot and dialogue. Soapy direction. Acting sub panto level. Apart from Orla Brady who is much better than this and will probably never do an Irish TV show again. This is RTE's Sunday night offering? Someone on top needs their head examined.
