Press

There is so much drivel out there. So many tv series are poorly scripted, poorly acted and lack realistic plots. This was the exact opposite. The two central characters played by Charlotte Riley and Ben Chaplin are a master class in acting, perfectly matched and utterly believable. The story lines interesting and reflect what we see say to say in the British press. I can't understand why there is only one series??! Baffling. There is so much more scope for character and story development with the incredible ensemble cast of Al Weaver, Paapa Essiedu and Ellie Kendrick. What a waste!

I'm surprised by the negative reviews for this series. I think with all the great dramas that are showing at the moment this series has slipped under the radar a bit. Great cast and definitely worth a watch, I suspect it's uncomfortably close to the truth about what goes on the in the murky world of journalism

It was a very interesting program, only wished it was longer. It ended just when it started getting similar to what is going on now here. Reminded me of Newsroom program. Hope some sharp Producers pick this idea up to monitor Our current Political battle in the U.S.

This was a very well crafted drama, everything was in place and it really was quite gripping. Ben Chaplin showed brilliant promise in 1995 with the comedy Game On, he then was stolen by America to our loss. He is one of the finest talents, he brings an intensity to the screen that cannot be ignored with just everything going on behind the eyes.

I am never sure why Mr Chaplin was not a mega star of the movies years ago, perhaps his time has come now.

I liked the mixture of episodic stories mixed with longer running issues as this created quite an impetus. Great ensemble playing.

If I was to make two criticisms, no one was happy in their jobs and the office-banter was missing. And the Resonance story just didn't cut it, we all know that our surveillance is done be GCHQ and that only exceptions are read by humans, everything else is a computer algorithm, so we have privacy, and the idea that this surveillance could be subverted is absurd.

I look greatly to season 2

I discovered this on a plane ride and devoured the whole series then and there. It's well written and the two main characters are extremely well played.
