This is the best British crime series I have seen since I really can't recall.
The plot is genius, the writers have simply done a perfect job, the camera work is brilliant, and it all just oozes of a director, cast and crew having a hell of a time. The main actors are basically fantastic, with main character actor Nabhaan Rizwan making a highly believable portray of a young English Pakistani, who develops from an ordinary youngster into a very life experienced man. Rizwan is utterly outstanding with his interpretation and must have made quite a breakthrough with this role. The only reasons for not giving top score to this production are sadly and only a few some less credible acting performances.
Gripping storyline, I was on the edge of my seat. The acting and script is great. I also love the way informer was filmed.
As a third gen Pakistani I could understand the complexity of family life. The series has it's flaws but is entertaining. Left me thinking about the show long after I had finished viewing.
A lot of food for thought. Would definitely recommend.

- Informer - is a British thriller series - Drama and it tells us the story of the infiltration of a London Pakistani (2nd generation) who becomes (we force his hand) informant for the anti-terrorism police. The idea for this series is very good and we feel the desire to know more as soon as we realize the development of the plot. A small stressful atmosphere is felt then the main character evolves in an environment that was completely foreign to him before. We feel very well all the psychological pressure and ill-being of this informant who is admirably well interpreted by: "Nabhaan Rizwan" in the role of (Raza Shar, the informant) other roles are also valued in this series as: "Paddy Considine"
Political, personal and a fantastic example of modern television's quality 'Informer' was amazing to be entirely honest. Twisty and masterfully edited the presentation was astounding and full of great performances its only qualms is a bit of a pacing issue cramming a mass amount into only 6 episodes. Other than that I cant speak highly enough and as a one off season it's a piece you must watch, cant recommend enough.
