A lot of people who review this find it boring , absurd. A lot of people give 5 stars to marvel, superheroes- to me it is real cinema , not far fetched, I am not influenced by tick tok , social media. . So vey watchable. The flow is great, brutal action , good deciet, suspense. Not the best for Richard Armitage, great actor- other actor's a bit ordinary If people could only understand British Drama, layers of deceit, a plot vs superheroes with senseless bang bang. Don't get swayed by just reviews, try and find out the age of the reviewer , we will know what to watch. Influencers, ha ha, bad review on imdb, usually good to watch.
It would be easy to criticize this series - more holes in it than a Swiss cheese - but I'd rather stress the entertainment value. This is a fast-paced, well-acted, well-directed, great piece of entertainment with (at times) mesmerising screenplay and all the tension and panache of Alistair MacLean's heroes or James Bond's adventures.
Many movie-goers and TV drama afficionados will appreciate the quality behind this production and forgive just how believable the storyline is (or isn't!) - but it's dealing with potentially really worrying contemporary issues, and the aircraft scenes (in particular) are right up there with the best. The political machinations are pretty good too!
Worth it.

This series is surprisingly enjoyable, offering a light, entertaining experience that's easy to digest. While the storyline leans on familiar, somewhat cliché tropes, it throws in a few clever twists that keep things engaging. It may not be the kind of show that leaves you desperate for another season or keeps you up all night, but it's undeniably fun. The pacing is smooth, and the plot is straightforward, making it perfect for casual viewing.
Overall, it's a solid one-season watch that delivers enough excitement without demanding too much investment. The cast may not feature any big-name stars, but it includes some familiar British actors who deliver solid performances, bringing charm and likability to their roles. The characters are friendly and well-developed. While people do die in the show, it's not overly violent or gory, keeping things relatively light. It's the perfect simple watch for a relaxed weekend, offering enough excitement without demanding too much focus. All in all, this is a fun, breezy series that provides plenty of enjoyment without overwhelming viewers.

Yes, it's mind-numbingly dumb. Yes, it's more cliche than a leprechaun's pint of Guinness. Yes, it's got more holes than a pair of socks from the 1970s, but if you're looking to veg out with a few beers and a slice of pizza (or two) after a hard week of grafting, it does the job very well.
If you're looking for something deep and meaningful, thought-provoking, or intellectually challenging, give this a miss. If you're after a bit of fluff with twists, turns, and hooks that your pet Labrador would be able to comprehend, dive in!
Disengage your brain, put your feet up, tuck in, and relax. Fast-food drama when you can't be arsed to think beyond the opening credits-just what I needed!

There are a lot of negative reviews on here stating that the whole thing was ridiculous. Perhaps they should watch a documentary or something. Myself and the Mrs watched the whole thing in less than 24 hours and, to be honest, it was a damn sight more believable than a James Bond film or any of that superhero nonsense that they keep churing out nowadays. The acting was decent, the storys was well-written even if it did push some accuracy limits ehre and there. The pace was the best thing. Never a dull moment, which is what I want after a hard day at work. If they showed police and spy thrillers that reflected real life, I suspect they wouldn't pick up many viewers. This was entertaining and fun, which is what I was looking for.
