    Outstanding series

    Absolutely loved this series right from the off. Lola Petticrew is quite simply incredible and owns the screen. Brilliant soundtrack and a really decent attempt at portraying life in NÍ during the troubles. Like others have said some of the dialogue is lost because of the overly strong accents but that's a minor complaint. The characters are believable as are the relationships. Well done C4 and all involved in this brilliant series.

    Off to a great start

    The first episode was very well done. They've clearly spent a lot of time and money on making this as authentic as possible.

    Far more thoughtful than I was expecting. Perhaps down to being based on a novel.

    Looking forward to watching the rest of this online, though it's good enough that it probably shouldn't be binged.

    Great story - poor sound

    I read the book and was fully expecting to be critical of the tv show however that wasn't the case. The series doesn't deviate from the book at all and the story has been very well told on screen. Lola and Tom are brilliant as Cushla and Michael. And Gillian portrays Gina so well. My only criticism is the sound quality, it's very mumbly and difficult to understand the speaking in some parts.

    Quality drama

    Gritty, authentic with a first class cast (Lola Pettigrew & Gillian Anderson & Co are brilliant.)The story line excellent with heart wrenching moments all the more poignant in light of its truth. It's obvious that a Very Considerable time, effort & finance went into this production. Fantastic work by everyone involved. I loved it.

    Must watch

    Just finished episode 3 and this is a stunning watch. You'll be drawn in to all of Cushna's relationships not just with Michael- The family with a protestant & a Catholic parent, the teacher who tries to woo her and of course her mother- brilliant catatonic performance by Gillian Anderson. The menace of the Troubles is constantly there, sometimes subtley weaved in, sometimes in your face. Compelling may be a bog standard description but Trespasses really really is. Absolutely loved it. Props also on the soundtrack. Into the Mystic conveying the magic of the start of Cushna & Michael's relationship. Wish the series was more than 4 eps. Its very worth your time.
